2 and the iggs Mechanism LEP 1 σ hadron SM: s / s >.1 SM: s / s > s [GeV] V(Φ) Φ What gives mass to matter? Is mass an intrinsic property or the effect of particle interactions? ow is mass accounted for in the present picture of particle physics? Which data are available, which crucial experimental tests are planned, how can we get answers at the TESLA collider? Page 2

3 : Setting a Problem Since electron discovery, physics has unveiled a rich variety of particles, determined their quantum numbers, probed their structure and interactions LEP log(l) 5 σ hadron Events/(1 GeV/c 2 ) M top (GeV/c 2 ) SM: s / s >.1 SM: s / s > s [GeV] Reconstructed Mass (GeV/c 2 ) Present picture characterised by apparently disconcerting range of masses for matter (fermion) and force (boson) particles (M t /M e =35): Matter Particles ν e u d µ s τ c b t Force Particles γ g W Z Mass (GeV) Page 3

4 Understand the Origin of Mass: A Modern Scientific Quest Newton established the relationship between Weight and Mass: F w = Mg and Einstein that between Energy and Mass: E = Mc 2...but so far the Origin of Mass question has been left unanswered: Matter Particles Standard Model does not explain the pattern of matter particle masses and their origin; These need to be determined experimentally and count for the majority of SM free parameters; Force Particles Observed difference in strength of weak and electro-magnetic interactions explained by actual pattern of force particle masses: while Gauge symmetry requires mass-less force particles. Page 4

5 The mechanism of Mass generation through Field Coupling: 1957: Fermion masses: Schwinger: a coupling will produce effective mass terms through the action of the vacuum fluctuations : Boson masses: iggs; Englert and Brout: Page 5

6 The iggs Mechanism of Mass Generation Introduce (one doublet of) scalar fields Φ (iggs field) that acquires a non-zero strength = v/ 2 at the ground state: iggs Potential V (Φ Φ) = λ(φ Φ 1 2 v2 ) 2 Vacuum Vacuum V(Φ) Φ = Evolution of iggs potential and field strength at ground state with Temperature points to symmetric configuration in the Early Universe; iggs field Φ to permeate the space and give mass to force and matter particles through its interaction: one iggs boson witness of the inset of the iggs mass generation mechanism. M f = g ff v M V = gv 2 M = 2λv Φ Φ Page 6

7 iggs Mechanism and Superconductivity: An Analogy γ At T<T c Cooper pairs collective effect cancels material resistivity and expels an external magnetic field; Magnetic field penetration depth in superconductor λ c =1 6 m Equivalent to photons mediating the electro-magnetic field to have acquired a mass M γ =1/λ c Z/W iggs condensate permeate the space and cancels W and Z fields within a depth: λ W,Z =1/M W,Z c m and equivalently the W/Z bosons acquire mass M W,Z =1/λ W,Z c. Page 7

8 Supersymmetry and the iggs Sector The appearance of fundamental scalar fields becomes natural in theories with one-to-one correspondence between matter and force particles (SUperSYmmetry) that protect the value of v from corrections from higher scales Λ >> v (= 246 GeV 1 17 M Pl ). SUSY theories require at least two iggs doublets: oneproviding mass to up-type and the other to down-type quarks: Minimal Supersymmetric extension of SM 1 Doublet 2 Doublets 4-3 d.o.f = 1 Boson ( ) 2 4-3d.o.f. =5Bosons(h,, A, ± ) vacuum < Φ >= v/ 2 vacua v 1, v 2, tan β = v 2 v 1 SUSY iggs Phenomenology characterised by 5 iggs bosons and shifted values of iggs-fermion couplings g ff w.r.t. fermion masses M f.
