Radiative quark mass generation and a fourth quark family

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields

Abstract

We study the possibility to calculate masses and mixing angles of the known three quark families from radiative corrections connecting them to a heavy fourth family. In a left-right symmetric electroweak model with chiral horizontal gauge interactions, we obtain for the heavy quark masses values in the TeV range.
