The economical \(\text{SU}(3)_C\otimes\text{SU}(3)_L\otimes\text{U}(1)_X\) model (Q1017380)

Summary: The \(\text{SU}(3)_C\otimes\text{SU}(3)_L\otimes\text{U}(1)_X\) gauge model with minimal scalar sector, two Higgs triplets, is presented in detail. One of the vacuum expectation values \(u\) is a source of lepton-number violations and a reason for mixing among charged gauge bosons--the standard model \(W^\pm\) and the bilepton gauge bosons \(Y^\pm\), as well as among the neutral non-Hermitian bilepton \(X^0\) and neutral gauge bosons--the \(Z\) and the new \(Z'\). An exact diagonalization of the neutral gauge boson sector is derived, and bilepton mass splitting is also given. Because of these mixings, the lepton-number violating interactions exist in both charged and neutral gauge boson sectors. Constraints on vacuum expectation values of the model are estimated and \(u\approx \mathcal O(1)(1)\) GeV, \(\nu\approx\nu_{\text{weak}}=246\) GeV, and \(\omega\approx \mathcal O(1)\) TeV. In this model, there are three physical scalars, two neutral and one charged, and eight Goldstone bosons--the needed number for massive gauge bosons. The minimal scalar sector can provide all fermions including quarks and neutrinos consistent masses in which some of them require one-loop radiative corrections.
