Abstract: (APS)
In weak-interaction models with spontaneous parity nonconservation, based on the gauge group SU(2)L⊗SU(2)R⊗U(1), we obtain the following formula for the neutrino mass: , where is the gauge boson which mediates right-handed weak interactions. This formula, valid for each lepton generation, relates the maximality of observed parity nonconservation at low energies to the smallness of neutrino masses.- NEUTRINO: MASS
