Abstract

The one-loop radiative correction in an ultraviolet (UV) complete electroweak (EW) model without a Higgs particle is calculated. The ρ\rho parameter determining the ratio of the charged to neutral currents is derived for the dominant top quark contribution with the result ρ1.01\rho\sim 1.01. This result is compared to the radiative correction to ρ\rho in the standard EW model with a Higgs particle. For the favored light Higgs particle mass from global fits to EW data: 114.4GeVmH135GeV114.4\,{\rm GeV} \leq m_H\leq 135\, {\rm GeV}, the Higgs contribution up to three loops is negligible and the Higgless model is consistent with EW data for the energy scale ΛW12\Lambda_W\lesssim 1-2 TeV.
