Abstract A model that gives family gauge bosons with an inverted mass hierarchy is proposed, stimulated by Suminoʼs cancellation mechanism for the QED radiative correction to the charged lepton masses. The Sumino mechanism cannot straightforwardly be applied to SUSY models because of the nonrenormalization theorem. In this Letter, an alternative model which is applicable to a SUSY model is proposed. It is essential that family gauge boson masses m ( A i j ) in this model is given by an inverted…

Hint of family gauge bosons with an inverted mass hierarchy from the observed tau decays
Abstract The present data show a deviation from the e-m universality e ≡ e μ − e e = 0.0020 ± 0.0016 . If we consider that the deviation originates in a mass difference between family gauge bosons A
