A Way to Understand the Mass Generation
We believe that the quantum 4-dimensional Minkowski space-time with the
force-fields gauge-group structure built-in from the very beginning is the background for everything.
Thus, the self-repulsive, but ``related'', complex scalar fields
(the Standard-Model Higgs), (the purely family Higgs), and
(the mixed family Higgs), with the first family label and the
second label, co-exist such that they generate all the masses if, and
only if, necessary. Note that the ``ignition'' channel is on the elusive
channel, yielding the prediction that the Standard-Model (SM) Higgs
mass is half of the SM vacuum expectation value . Before the
``ignition'', there is no mass terms, including the Higgs, the quarks, and the
leptons. Apart from the ``ignition'' term, all the couplings are dimensionless
and thus the theory is determined by the quantum 4-dimensional Minkowski
space-time. The multi-GeV or sub-sub-fermi family gauge fields
protect the lepton world from the QED Landau ghost and make them asymptotically
free. We try to discuss different ways to deal with infinities (ultraviolet
divergences) for the resultant Standard Model (as the consistent and complete
theory).Comment: 4 figure
