ΔS=2 processes in ETC models with a left-right symmetric electroweak sector

  • Published:

Abstract

TheK L-K S mass difference in a dynamically broken gauge theory based on aSU(2) L⊗SU(2)R⊗U(1)B-L electroweak sector with manifest left-right symmetry and low right handed mass scale is analysed. We find that consistency with the observedK L-K S mass difference requires a smaller suppression factor than the corresponding quantity in a similar theory based on the standard electroweak sector. The required suppression may be accommodated in this model by reasonable choices of the adjustable parameters of the theory.
