The minimal quark-lepton symmetry model and the limit on Z′-mass

Abstract: A minimal extension of the Standard Model containing the fourcolor quark-lepton symmetry is proposed and discussed. The existence of a rather light extra Z ′ -boson originated from the four-color quark-lepton symmetry is shown to be compatible with the current electroweak data. The cross sections σ(e + e − → γ, Z, Z ′ →f f ) are calculated, and their deviations from the SM predictions are shown to be significant at √ s ≥ 200 GeV and available for the measurements at the LEP200 and future colliders.To be publis… Show more

“…They couple to lepton-quark pairs and appear in many extensions of the Standart Model (SM) which unify lepton and quark in one multiplet in the framework Grand United Theory (GUT) on grounds that S U(5) [2] and S U(4) [1], superstring-inspired E6 model and other models. We study leptoquarks in the minimal extension SM with four color symmetry, that is Minimal Quark-Lepton Symmetry model (MQLS model) [3,4]. The MQLS model predicted the existence of the vector leptoquarks with masses on the order of the mass scale, which S U c (4) symmetry is broken.…”

“…where the first factor is the vector-like group of the four color quark-lepton symmetry the second one is the usual SM electroweak symmetry group for the left-handed fermions and the third one is the corresponding hypercharge factor for the right-handed fermions (the minimal quark-lepton symmetry model -MQLS-model [2,3]). As a remarkable consequence the four color quark-lepton symmetry predicts for the electric charges of quarks and leptons the simple expression…”

Thus, in the case of the Higgs mechanism of splitting the masses of quarks and leptons the four color symmetry in its minimal realization on the gauge group(MQLS-model [2,3]) needs the existence of the scalar particles belonging to the (15,2,1) -multiplet of the group G. This multiplet contains fifteen scalar SU L (2)-doublets: two scalar leptoquark doublets S (±) , scalar gluon doublet F and a SU c (3)-colorless scalar doublet which in admixture with the (1, 2, 1) -doublet forms the SM Higgs doublet Φ (SM ) and an additional colorless scalar doublet Φ ′ . All these scalar doublets are necessary [4] for splitting the the masses of quarks from those of leptons by the Higgs mechanism and for generating the quark -lepton mass splittings including the so large mass splittings as the b − τ and t − ν τ ones.…”
