Radiative electroweak symmetry breaking in the extra dimensions scenarios
read the original abstract
We study the radiative spontaneous electroweak symmetry breaking in the extra dimensions scenarios of the standard model extension proposed by Antoniadis {\it et al}, Dienes {\it et al.} and Pomarol {\it et al.}. In the framework of multi-scale effective theory when viewing from the ultraviolet cutoff scale down to the low energy scale, we find that the effects of Kaluza-Klein excitations of bosons can change the sign of the Higgs mass term of the standard model from positive to negative and therefore trigger the electroweak symmetry breaking at 1.6 (2) TeV or so when the compactification scale is assumed to be 0.8 (1.5) TeV or so. New particle contents beyond the SM or supersymmetry are not necessary for this mechanism. We conclude that in the extra dimension scenarios, the radiative correction can naturally induce the desired electroweak symmetry breaking.
