We propose a scenario for particle-mass generation, assuming the existence of a physical regime where, firstly, physical particles can be considered as point-like objects moving in a background space-time and, secondly, their mere presence…
A new $U(1)$ dark gauge group coupled to the Standard Model (SM) via the kinetic mixing portal provides a natural dark matter candidate in the form of the Higgs field, $h_d$, responsible for generating the mass of the dark photon,…
A new kind of fundamental superfield is proposed, with an Ising-like Euclidean action. Near the Planck energy it undergoes its first stage of symmetry-breaking, and the ordered phase is assumed to support specific kinds of topological…
A rigid body accelerated through an inviscid, incompressible fluid appears to gain mass, which is encoded in an added mass tensor. Swimmers, air bubbles, submarines and airships are slowed down by the associated `added mass' force…
We suggest a new mass generation mechanism for gauge fields. The quantum field theory constructed in this paper is nonabelian, gauge invariant and asymptotically free.
It is well known that a typical Yang-Mills Gauge Field is mediated by massless Bosons. It is only through a symmetry breaking mechanism, as in the Salam-Weinberg model that the quanta of such an interaction field acquire a mass in the usual…
A previous study of the dynamical generation of masses in massless QCD is considered from another viewpoint. The quark mass is assumed to have a dynamical origin and is substituted by a scalar field without self-interaction. The potential…
We propose a new method for neutrino mass generation through a modified Higgs mechanism by introducing an additional tiny vacuum breaking to the charged Higgs field. With identical particle spectrum as standard electroweak model, this…
A mechanism for the dynamical mass generation of a non-Abelian gauge field which is based on taking into account the contributions of the gauge field vacuum configurations into the formation of the physical vacuum is considered. For a model…
The role that the auxiliary scalar field $\phi$ played in Brans-Dicke cosmology is discussed. If a constant vacuum energy is assumed to be the origin of dark energy, then the corresponding density parameter would be a quantity varying with…
A new mechanism for mass generation of gauge fields is proposed in this paper. By introducing two sets of gauge fields and making the variatons of these two sets of gauge fields compensate each other under local gauge transformations, the…
The standard $SU(2) \times U(1)$ fields are considered in 4D plus one extra compact dimension. As a result two basic effects are obtained. First, four Goldstone-like scalars are produced, three of them are used to create longitudinal modes…
The problem of the physical nature and the cosmological constant genesis is discussed. This problem can't be solved in terms of the current quantum field theory which operates with Higgs and nonperturbative vacuum condensates and takes into…
We study a set of theories built on a ranked sequence of antisymmetric tensor fields in D dimensional space-time. These linear theories exhibit gauge invariances that are analogous to the local gauge invariance of a massless vector…
We consider possible mechanical masses that could appear in supersymmetry, other than by direct Higgs coupling to fermions and we speculate that the existence of such a type of mass would allow one to have the Higgs mass of the $u$ quark…
The current understanding of structure formation in the early universe is mainly built on a magnification of quantum fluctuations in an initial vacuum state during an early phase of accelerated universe expansion. One usually describes this…
In a model of nonlinear system of three scalar fields the problem on dynamics of a massive particle moving in effective potential provided by two relativistic fields is solving. The potentials for these fields are chosen in the form of…
We investigate a field theoretical approach to the Jordan-Brans- Dicke (JBD) theory extended with a particular potential term on a cosmological background by starting with the motivation that the Higgs field and the scale factor of the…
The discovery of the Standard Model Higgs boson opens up a range of speculative cosmological scenarios, from the formation of structure in the early universe immediately after the big bang, to relics from the electroweak phase transition…
Assuming the existence of a scalar field which undergoes "ghost condensation" and which has a suitably chosen potential, it is possible to obtain a non-singular bouncing cosmology in the presence of regular matter and radiation. The…
