Mirror Fermions in Noncommutative Geometry

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-30 v1

Abstract

In a recent paper we pointed out the presence of extra fermionic degrees of freedom in a chiral gauge theory based on Connes Noncommutative Geometry. Here we propose a mechanism which provides a high mass to these mirror states, so that they decouple from low energy physics.
