TeV- and MeV-physics out of an $S{U}_L(2)\times U_R(1{)}_J\times U(1{)}_K$ model

Abstract

The standard electroweak interaction is here re-assessed to accommodate two different situations in Particle Physics. The first one is a $Z^{\prime }$-model at the TeV-scale physics. The second one tackles the recent discussion of a possible fifth force mediated by a $17$-MeV X-boson associated with an electron-positron emission in the transition of an excited 8-Beryllium to its ground state. The anomaly-free model that provides these two scenarios is based on an $S{U}_L(2)\times U_R(1{)}_J\times U(1{)}_K$-symmetry. It yields a new massive neutral boson, an exotic massive neutral fermion, right-neutrinos and an additional neutral Higgs particle, which stems from a supplementary Higgs field, introduced along with the usual Higgs doublet responsible for the electroweak breaking and the masses of $W^{\pm }$ and $Z^0$. Yukawa interactions of the two scalars generate the masses of the Standard Model leptons, neutrinos and a new exotic fermion of the model. The vacuum expectation values of the Higgses fix up two independent energy scales. One of them is the well-confirmed electroweak scale, $246\text{mbox}GeV$, whereas the other one is set up by adopting an experimental estimate for the $Z^{\prime }$-mass.
