In this approach vector and axial-vector bound states are gauge bosons associated to a hidden $SU(N)_L\\otimes SU(N)_R$ symmetry. After the gauging of the electroweak symmetry, the corrections to the self-energies of the standard model gauge bosons are calculated and bounds on the parameter space of the model arising from precision measurements are studied. The self-energy corrections arise from spin 1 mixings, pseudogoldstones loops, pseudogoldstone-spin 1 loops, and tadpole terms. The one-loop terms tend to decrease both isospin conserving and isospin violating corrections. Careful calculation for standard $SU(8)$ QCD-scaled technicolor shows that strictly this model (which has however serious theoretical difficulties on his own) is still marginally allowed at present experimental precision.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1992-09-29T09:26:00.000Z", "comment": "LaTeX (style article), 26 pages, 7 figures (available upon request), UGVA-DPT 1992/07-778" }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2015-05-15T14:35:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "precision electroweak measurements", "extended bess model", "lagrangian parameterization describing scalar", "axial-vector bound states", "standard model gauge bosons" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Elsevier", "journal": "Nucl.
