Massive, unitary, renormalizable Yang-Mills theory without Higgs bosons
journal contribution
posted on 2023-05-18, 00:04 authored by Robert DelbourgoRobert Delbourgo, G ThompsonWe present a variant of the Stueckelberg formalism for Yang-Mills theory where the Stueckelberg scalar field is eliminated in favor of the gauge potential. Normally this leads to nonpolynomial interactions. However, we point out that it is possible to pick a gauge where the nonpolynomiality disappears and the resulting theory is power-counting renormalizable and unitary. This procedure allows one to construct an electroweak model without the Higgs boson.
