Description

We investigate the effects of adding a set of 1+- gauge fields to a chiral SU(4) x SU(4) sigma model of the 0+- fields. Special attention is given to calculating the entire mass spectrum with the choice of symmetry-breaking terms which transform as the smaller-dimensional representations of SU(4). Hadronic currents and some vector-meson decays are also discussed
