I present a model of topcolor-assisted technicolor that can have topcolor breaking of the desired pattern, hard masses for all quarks and leptons, mixing among the heavy and light generations, and explicit breaking of all technifermion chiral symmetries except electroweak SU(2)⊗U(1). These positive features depend on the outcome of vacuum alignment. The main flaw in this model is tau-lepton condensation.

Transverse spin diffusion in a dilute spin-polarized degenerate Fermi gas
(SPRINGER/PLENUM PUBLISHERS, 1998-08-01)We re-examine the calculation of the transverse spin-diffusion coefficient in a dilute degenerate spin-polarized Fermi gas, for the case of s-wave scattering. The special feature of this limit is that the dependence of the ... -
Color-singlet technipions at the Tevatron
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 1995-09-14)I discuss production and detection at the Tevatron collider of pairs of light (MπT = 100–200GeV) color-singlet technipions that are expected in all nonminimal models of technicolor. Gluon fusion production rates can be as ... -
Natural topcolor-assisted technicolor
(Elsevier Science BV, 1995-06-15)We construct a prototype of topcolor-assisted technicolor in which, although both top and bottom quarks acquire some mass from extended technicolor, strong U(1) couplings of technifermions are isospin symmetric and all ...
