These models describe integrable multiparameter perturbations of the theory of level-$k$ $G$-parafermions, where $G$ is a Lie group. The parameters can be related to adjustable mass scales of stable and unstable particles. Our results confirm the presence of unstable particle states at generic values of $k$, as predicted at large $k$ by semiclassical arguments.Talk presented in "Workshop on Integrable Theories, Solitons and Duality", Sao Paulo, July 2002High Energy Physics - TheoryAspects of the Homogeneous Sine-Gordon modelstext
