Massive Connection Bosons
Gustavo R. Gonzalez-Martin

TL;DR
This paper demonstrates that geometric connection field excitations can acquire mass from a space-time background, with calculated masses closely matching experimental W and Z bosons, suggesting a geometric origin of these particles.
Contribution
It introduces a geometric framework where connection field excitations gain mass, providing a novel explanation for W and Z boson masses from space-time structure.
Findings
Calculated masses are very close to experimental values of W and Z bosons.
Commutation relations limit the possible mass spectrum in the electromagnetic su(2) sector.
Results include corrections of order alpha, aligning theory with observed data.
Abstract
It is shown that geometric connection field excitations acquire mass terms from a geometric background substratum related to the structure of space-time. Commutation relations in the electromagnetic su(2) sector of the connection limit the number of possible masses. Calculated results, within corrections of order alpha, are very close to the experimental masses of the intermediate W, Z bosons.
