Dark fermions from the Standard Model via spin-charge separation

TL;DR

This paper proposes a novel composite model where leptons are bound states of neutral fermions and Higgs bosons, suggesting a pathway to fundamental dark fermions through spin-charge separation.

Contribution

It introduces a new composite scenario for leptons in the Standard Model using spin-charge separation, leading to the possibility of fundamental dark fermions.

Findings

Leptons can be modeled as bound states of neutral fermions and Higgs bosons.

Dark fermions may emerge as more fundamental entities via spin-charge separation.

Leptons acquire charges and masses from Higgs fields in this framework.

Abstract

We study a new composite scenario of the lepton sector in the Standard Model by a de-gauging procedure called spin-charge separation and propose that leptons are bound states of some neutral fermions and Higgs bosons. Continuing this procedure we may obtain more fundamental dark fermions. They become the physical leptons by acquiring both charges and masses from some Higgs fields.
