Beyond the Standard Model: Pati–Salam Unification
摘要
One of the pressing questions at this point is whether noncommutative geometry may point to new physics beyond the Standard Model. The success of the spectral construction of the Standard Model, predicting its particle content, including gauge fieldsGauge field, Higgs fieldsHiggs field as well as a singlet whose vev gives Majorana massMajorana mass to the right handed neutrino, is a strong signal that we are on the right track. However, the mismatch between the predicted range of the Higgs massHiggs mass and the experimentally observed value suggests that we should reconsider the path we took.
