Abstract

We demonstrate that the chiral gauge flavor SU(3)fSU(3)_f dynamics spontaneously generates the chiral symmetry breaking fermion self energies Σ(p2)\Sigma(p^2) resulting in wide and wild spectra of lepton and quark masses. The Goldstone theorem then necessarily implies: (1) Gauge bosons of gauged chiral symmetries absorb the underlying 'would-be' Nambu-Goldstone (NG) bosons and become massive. Masses are determined by Σ(p2)\Sigma(p^2)s of those fermions to which they couple, and by the corresponding gauge coupling constants. (2) Charges of anomalous Abelian chiral fermion currents create composite mixed-parity pseudo NG bosons with calculable couplings to fermions and gauge bosons: (i) the Higgs-looking hh with mass due to the SU(3)fSU(3)_f instanton; (ii) the Weinberg-Wilczek axion aa with mass due to the QCD instanton; (iii) the Anselm-Uraltsev arion bb with mass due to the electroweak instanton. (3) There are the true composite NG bosons, the majorons.
