Abstract

We extend the Higgs mechanism in a supergauge invariant way. Spontaneous symmetry breaking occurs for all allowed values of the parameters of the scalar potential. With SU(2) × U(1) as gauge group and after spontaneous breaking of supergauge invariance, we obtain a model of weak and electromagnetic interactions for the electron and its neutrino, which includes also heavy leptons and scalar particles. The neutrino is the Goldstone fermion, associated with the photon in a massless vector multiplet.
