where Ai(x) (i = 1, 2, 3) are real vector fields. Then, this Lagrangian is invariantunder the local SU(2) transformation given by

%Akµ = "µ&k + g#ijk&iAj

µ (for small &i), (9.104)

where &i(x) (i = 1, 2, 3) are arbitrary di!erentiable real functions of x = (t, 'x). This isa remarkable result: it means that we can mix up u and d fields and do so di!erentlyat di!erent space-time, yet the law of physics remains invariant as long as the vectorfields simultaneously transform in a specific way. In the process, we have also specifiedthe interactions between the vector fields and the fermions as well as those amongthe vector fields.

The interaction terms between the fermions and the vectors are found in !iD/ !.Using the explicit form (9.85), we have

contribute at tree level to the process e+e!!W+W!, are referred to as CC03 diagrams.They are shown in Fig 1.1. The matrix element for W-pair production at tree level isthe sum of the matrix elements for these three diagrams separately. Actually, a fourthdiagram exists at tree level in the SM where a Higgs boson is exchanged through the s-channel, but its amplitude is proportional to the electron mass and can thus be neglected.However, at very high energies this diagram needs to be taken into account to ensure aproper behaviour of the cross section.

1.4.1 Helicity Amplitudes

To study the e!ect of anomalous couplings on the W-pair production process, it is instruc-tive to express the matrix elements in terms of the helicity states of the two W bosons,M(#, $, $"). The helicities of the W! and W+ are given by $ and $", incoming e! and e+

helicities are #/2 and "#/2, with the assumption that the electrons are massless.It is convenient to define reduced matrix elements by extracting some common factors:

M(#, $, $"; ") =#

2e2#M!,","!(")dJ0!,!"("). (1.23)

The angle " is the production angle of the W! with respect to the incoming e!. Theleading angular dependence is given in terms of the d-functions dJ0

!,!" [79], where J0 =max(|#|, |#$|) gives the lowest angular momentum contributing to a given helicity com-bination. Two out of the nine possible helicity combinations give J0 = 2, with both W’soppositely, transversely polarised (±,$) thus |#$| = 2. The other seven possible helicityconfigurations all have J0 = 1. The explicit form of the d functions for all possible helicitycombinations is given in the last column of Table 1.2.

The reduced matrix elements are not partial wave amplitudes since they can still havea " dependence due to partial waves with J > J0. The two s-channel diagrams onlycontribute to the seven helicity contributions that have J0 = 1, since angular momentumconservation in the decay of a spin-1 particle dictates that J = 1. The t-channel diagramon the other hand, can form all nine possible helicity combinations and contributions from

As the universe cools down it may so happen that one part of the string settlesdown in one groove and other part in another groove. Then, there will be a transitionpoint from one groove to the other as shown in Figure 9.1(b). This is an example oftopological solitons and called kink. A kink will move around carrying some energy,and will not be annihilated unless it meets another kink of the opposite sign oftransition. This particular soliton is possible only for one-dimensional field; there are,however, varieties of topological solitons that are predicted to exist in our universesuch as monopoles and instantons. These topological objects should exist if we takethe posturate of spontaneous symmetry breaking seriously.

9.4. ELECTRO-WEAK UNIFICATION AND THE STANDARD MODEL 503

the Lagrangian will still be gauge invariant, but the lepton and neutrino will havethe same mass. We might introduce Yukawa-type couplings between the scalar andthe fermions, but this has to be done in a SU(2)-invariant way, and as long as !and " form a SU(2) doublet, one cannot write down a coupling that gives di!erentmasses to them. The solution to the fermion masses as well as the V ! A coupling,as we will see, is to form a SU(2) doublet by the left-handed parts of ! and " whilekeeping their right-handed parts as SU(2) singlets. Additional problems are thatW±(80.2 GeV) and Z0(91.2 GeV) actually have di!erent masses and that we wouldlike the electromagnetic interaction to be included in the theory. We will see thatthese two problems are solved by introducing a local U(1) symmetry that is di!erentfrom the U(1) symmetry of of QED, and let the corresponding gauge boson ‘mix’with the neutral component of the three gauge bosons of SU(2). This then leads tothe ‘prediction’ that the ratio of the masses of W and Z is related to the ratio of theelectric charge e to the weak coupling constant g.

First, we will see how V ! A interaction can be introduced and how " and ! canhave di!erent masses. A fermion field # (an ordinary 4-component spinor, not adoublet) can be written as a sum of the right-handed and left-handed parts as

# = #R + #L , #(RL ) " P(R

L )# , P(RL ) "

As we have seen in (3.353), the right-handed and left-handed components decouplein the massless limit, or more precisely, they satisfy separate equations of motion. Interms of Lagrangian, the massless fermion Lagrangian can be separated into right-handed and left-handed parts as

#i%/# = (#R + #L)i%/(#R + #L)

For each particle, the electric charge Q can be expressed in terms of Y and T3 as

Q = Y + T3 , (9.189)

as can be easily verified in Table 9.1. Since the average value of T3 for any multipletis zero, the hyper charge Y assigned as above is the average electrical charge of eachSU(2) multiplet. It can be shown that, once the electrical charges of the particles aregiven, the requirement that Q be a linear combination of T3 and Y determines theassignments of Y up to an overall multiplicative constant.

Thus, our gauge group is the direct product of the isospin SU(2) and the hypercharge U(1) corresponding to the phase $. In order to make the Lagrangian invariantunder the local SU(2)"U(1) transformation, we introduce three gauge fields %Wµ forthe three generators %T of SU(2) and one gauge field Bµ for the generator Y of U(1).The Lagrangian is then

For each particle, the electric charge Q can be expressed in terms of Y and T3 as

Q = Y + T3 , (9.189)

as can be easily verified in Table 9.1. Since the average value of T3 for any multipletis zero, the hyper charge Y assigned as above is the average electrical charge of eachSU(2) multiplet. It can be shown that, once the electrical charges of the particles aregiven, the requirement that Q be a linear combination of T3 and Y determines theassignments of Y up to an overall multiplicative constant.

Thus, our gauge group is the direct product of the isospin SU(2) and the hypercharge U(1) corresponding to the phase $.

The SU(2) ! U(1) gauge transformation is

!! = U(x)! , U(x) = e"ig!"(x)·!T"ig!#(x)Y (! = L, "R, #R, and $)

% &Wµ = 'µ&( + g&( ! &Wµ , %Bµ = 'µ)

. (9.192)

where g and g! are real constants and &T and Y vary appropriately depending onthe field they are acting on; namely, they are the representations of the generatorsof SU(2) ! U(1) in the space of the fields they are attached to. We have alreadyproven the invariance of the gauge field terms F i

How should the covariant derivative be defined? What we want is that D!µ(U(x)!) =

Dµ = 'µ + ig &Wµ · &T + ig!BµY , (9.194)

as we will demonstrate below. What we would like to prove is that D!µU(x) = U(x)Dµ

holds in any representation. What we know is that such relation holds separately forSU(2) and U(1):

('µ + ig &W !µ · &T )e"ig!"·!T = e"ig!"·!T ('µ + ig &Wµ · &T ) ,

('µ + ig!B!µY )e"ig!#Y = e"ig!#Y ('µ + ig!BµY ) , (9.195)

where the first is identical to the definition in (9.103), and the second is obtainedfrom (9.68) by the replacement e " g!Y and ! " ). Now, since Y is just a numberfor any multiplet of SU(2), it should commute with &T in any representation:

Next, we will see how the gauge bosons acquire di!erent masses and how thephoton-lepton coupling emerges. We assume again that the scalar potential has theform V = b(2#†# " a2)2, and the choose the unitary gauge that leaves only the realpart of #0 to be non-zero. When the energy scale is low enough, the scalar field isthen written as a small oscillation around the vacuum as in (9.150). Since we ‘lost’three degrees of freedom of the scalar field, we expect that there will be three massivegauge bosons leaving one gauge boson massless. Which one stays massless?

ei$Q#V AC = #V AC , (9.201)

which means that the vacuum has zero electrical charge. Thus, the vacuum doesnot break the U(1) symmetry generated by Q, and we expect that the gauge bosonassociated with it should remain massless. Also, such gauge boson should couple tothe electrical charge and is in fact identified as the photon.

If we had chosen the vacuum expectation value (or the gauge) to be

which is valid for any field as long as appropriate representations are used for Ti andQ.

The masses of gauge bosons arises from the term (Dµ!)†(Dµ!) as before. In theunitary gauge we are using, the only nonzero component of ! is !0, and thus we canset Q = 0 in Dµ! [see (9.204)]. This immediately tells us that Aµ drops out of Dµ!and thus there will be no mass term for photon. Note that this is directly relatedto the fact that the vacuum is invariant under the transformation generated by Q asseen in (9.201). Then, Dµ! can be written as

Dµ! =!"µ + i

First, we know that the electron neutrino is very light. The current best upperlimit on the mass of !e is

m!e < 3eV (9.235)

"2 indicates that h! = 0, namely

Higgs does not couple to the neutrino. Since T3 = 0 and Q = 0 for right-handedneutrino, it does not couple to photn nor to Z (because S = T3 + sin2 #W Q = 0).Since W couples to leptons through Ti, W does not couple to right-handed neutrinowhich is SU(2) singlet. Thus, if the neutrino is massless, the right-handed neutrinocannot be created by any interaction, and thus may be altogether ignored. In fact, ifthe neutrino mass is exactly zero, we could have started by omitting !R in (9.173).The original electro-weak unification was proposed in such form without right-handedneutrino.

Next, let’s check the coupling constants e and g. We know the value of e:
