New physics with mirror particles

Abstract

The introduction of mirror fermions with masses between the weak scale and 1 TeV could offer a dynamical origin to the standard-model electro-weak symmetry breaking mechanism. The purpose of this work is to study the dynamics needed in order to render models with such a fermion content phenomenologically acceptable.
