We show that only two Higgs $SU(3)_L$ triplets are needed in order to properly break the symmetry. The exact tree-level scalar mass matrices resulting from symmetry breaking are calculated at the minimum of the most general scalar potential, and the gauge bosons are obtained, together with their couplings to the physical scalar fields. We show how the scalar sector introduced is enough to produce masses for fermions in a particular model which is an $E_6$ subgroup. By using experimental results we constrain the scale of new physics to be above 1.3 TeV.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2002-10-01T20:41:31.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14.80.Cp", "12.60.Cn" ], "keywords": [ "exotic electric charges", "minimal scalar sector", "scalar mass matrices resulting", "exact tree-level scalar mass matrices" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
