Description

In supersymmetric E6 gauge models based on superstring theory, an exactly conserved multiplicative quantum number can be defined to separate all particles into two groups. This dichotomy is especially important if left-right symmetry is realized at low energies. It makes possible a truly massless Dirac neutrino whose right-handed component is effectively inert and a second W boson with a mass perhaps as low as 300 GeV in a model with unconventional particle assignments
