• TITLE: Generation of Lepton Masses Complementary to Higgs

  AUTHORS: Peter I Porshnev

  KEYWORDS: Electroweak Left-Handed Lagrangian, Dirac And Majorana Masses, Seesaw Relation

  ABSTRACT: A generation of bare lepton masses alternative to Higgs-like mechanisms is proposed. It can be used in a combination with the latter ones in attempt to explain why the coupling strengths to Higgs field span a wide range. The proposed mechanism also allows defining neutrino masses alternatively to the Dirac or Majorana types, since the effective bare masses of leptons are possible to generate without scalar terms in electroweak Lagrangians and motion equations. The proposed extension is fully compatible with standard methods of calculating radiative corrections and scattering amplitudes, since the left- and right-handed parts of EW Lagrangian do not change.
