A road to an elementary particle physics model with no Higgs -- II

Abstract: This is the second of two companion papers in which we continue developing the construction of an elementary particle model with no Higgs. Here we show that the recently identified non-perturbative field-theoretical feature, alternative to the Higgs mechanism and capable of giving masses to quarks, Tera-quarks and $W$, can also provide mass to leptons and Tera-leptons when the model is extended to include, besides strong, Tera-strong and weak interactions, also hypercharge. In the present approach elementary fermion masses are not free parameters but are determined by the dynamics of the theory. We derive parametric formulae for elementary particle masses from which we can ``predict'' the order of magnitude of the scale of the new Tera-interaction and get crude numerical estimates for mass ratios in fair agreement with phenomenology. The interest of considering elementary particle models endowed with this kind of non-perturbative mass generation mechanism is that they allow solving some of the conceptual problems of the present formulation of the Standard Model, namely origin of the electroweak scale and naturalness.
