Unifiable Supersymmetric Left-Right Model with E_6 Particle Content

Abstract

A new supersymmetric gauge model is proposed with particle content chosen only from the 27 and 27* representations of E_6. The gauge symmetry SU(3) X SU(2)_L X SU(2)_R X U(1) is realized at the TeV energy scale and the gauge couplings converge to a single value at around 10^{16} GeV. A discrete Z_4 X Z_2 symmetry leads to a generalized definition of lepton number and ensures the absence of tree-level flavor-changing neutral-current interactions at the electroweak energy scale.
