An extension of the Standard Model to the local gauge group $SU(3)_c\otimes SU(4)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ as a three-family model is presented. The model does not contain exotic electric charges and we obtain a consistent mass spectrum by…
We study the electroweak standard model at finite temperature in presence of a bosonic chemical potential associated with the conserved electromagnetic current. To preserve the thermodynamic equilibrium of the system, the thermal medium is…
We consider a non-linear realization of the electroweak symmetry-breaking pattern $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R/SU(2)_{L+R}$ to construct a low-energy effective theory, later extended by the inclusion of heavy new-physics resonances. After…
