Description

We find a hidden local symmetry in the supersymmetric U(4nsub(f)+2)/U(4nsub(f))xSU(2) non-linear sigma model which was proposed recently as a phenomenological model coming from the SU(2) preon theory. The hidden symmetry is identifiable with the standard electro-weak SU(2)sub(L) gauge symmetry and thus we suggest that the weak intermediate bosons discovered at CERN may be dynamical gauge fields of the hidden symmetry.
