Title:The Standard Model with Modified Asymmetric Potential
View PDFAbstract: We consider a version of special relativity assuming that the metric in inertial frames is conformally pseudoeuclidean and depends on some scalar field with zero vacuum average. Applying this modified special relativity to the theory of electroweak interactions, and assuming that the introduced scalar field is proportional to the Higgs field, we show there is full consistency between the minimal Standard Model and our approach, except that, in our model, the potential in the Higgs sector is asymmetric and has two distinct vacuum states. It is found that, in the new modified model the mass of the Higgs particle is half that in the minimal Standard Model.

arXivLabs: experimental projects with community collaborators
arXivLabs is a framework that allows collaborators to develop and share new arXiv features directly on our website.
Both individuals and organizations that work with arXivLabs have embraced and accepted our values of openness, community, excellence, and user data privacy. arXiv is committed to these values and only works with partners that adhere to them.
