FERMION MASSES IN EXTENDED TECHNICOLOUR

Talks presented at Beyond The Standard Model IV Conference, Lake Tahoe, Dec 94: NEW FERMION FAMILIES AND PRECISION ELECTROWEAK DATA: We highlight a trend in the precision electroweak data towards light new physics and argue that some spectra of strongly interacting technifamilies are plausibly compatible with the data. FERMION MASSES IN EXTENDED TECHNICOLOUR: An ETC model with a minimal number of operators responsible for fermion masses that break the global symmetries in the observed manner postdicts the light quark masses. The up down mass inversion may be explained by the inclusion of a family symmetric ansatz for the CKM matrix angles.
