A semiclassical approach for the Higgs boson

TL;DR

This paper derives simple relations between the Higgs boson mass and gauge boson masses using a semiclassical approach, suggesting these particles may be composite states of fermions.

Contribution

It introduces a semiclassical method to relate Higgs and gauge boson masses, proposing a composite nature for these particles.

Findings

Derived tree-level mass relations for Higgs and gauge bosons.

Proposed that scalars and gauge bosons are composite fermion states.

Provided a conceptual framework linking mass relations to compositeness.

Abstract

Starting from the equations of motion of the fields involved in a theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking and by making simple assumptions regarding their behavior we derive simple tree level relations between the mass of the Higgs boson in the theory and the masses of the gauge bosons corresponding to the broken generators. We show that these mass relations have a clear meaning if both the scalars and the gauge bosons are composite states made of two fermions.
