Resolution of the $\rb -\als$ crisis of the SM in an exotic ETC scenario

Abstract

In this article we show that the $\rb -\als $ crisis of the SM can be resolved in a commuting TC scenario with sideways gauge bosons only if the ETC representation contains mirror technifermions. For a toy ETC model we estimate the value of $ξ^2_t={\gel/ \guer}$ that is needed to produce the observed LEP excess in $\rb$. It is also shown that the same value of ${\xi }_t^2$ resolvs the $\als$ crisis of the SM but produces a $\delta {\rho }_{new}$ which is barely within the present experimental bound.
