Higgsless Standard Model in Six Dimensions
Abstract
Description
We present a Higgsless Standard Model in six dimensions, based on the Standard Model gauge group SU(2)xU(1), with two flat extra dimensions compactified on a rectangle. The electroweak symmetry is broken by boundary conditions and realistic gauge boson masses can be accomodated by proper choice of the compactification scales and brane kinetic terms. With respect to oblique corrections, the agreement with electroweak precision tests is somewhat improved compared to the simplest five-dimensional Higgsless models.
