Description

We present a Z6 orbifold compactification of the E8 x E8 heterotic string which leads to the (supersymmetric) Standard Model gauge group anf matter content. The quarks and leptons appear as three 16-plets of SO(10), whereas the Higgs fields do not form complete SO(10) multiplets. The top quark Yukawa coupling arises from gauge interactions and is of the order of the gauge couplings, whereas the other Yukawa couplings are suppressed. The model has a hidden sector which admits supersymmetry breakdown via gaugino condensation
