We present a recently discussed effective superpotential for \"electric\" SQCD with N_c+2 <= N_f <= 3N_c/2 (N_c>2) that generates chiral symmetry breaking with a residual nonabelian symmetry of SU(N_c)_{L+R}xSU(N_f-N_c)_Lx SU(N_f-N_c)_R. Holomorphic decoupling property is shown to be respected. For massive N_f-N_c quarks, our superpotential with instanton effect taken into account produces a consistent vacuum structure for SQCD with N_f=N_c compatible with the holomorphic decoupling.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "1999-09-29T05:34:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11.30.Pb", "11.15.Tk", "11.30.Rd", "11.38.Aw" ], "keywords": [ "supersymmetric quantum chromodynamics", "description", "residual nonabelian symmetry", "instanton effect taken", "consistent vacuum structure" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 7, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 507849 } } }
