The Yukawa interaction couples the fermion field to the meson field with the coupling term

An obvious possibility is some kind of " Yukawa coupling " ( see below ) between the fermion field ψ and the Higgs field Φ, with unknown couplings ', which after symmetry-breaking ( more precisely: after expansion of the Lagrange density around a suitable ground state ) again results in the original mass terms, which are now, however ( i. e. by introduction of the Higgs field ) written in a gauge-invariant way.

All of the quarks ' and leptons ' Yukawa couplings are small compared to the top quark's Yukawa coupling.

where is the color gauge coupling ( which is a function of and associated with asymptotic freedom ) and is the Yukawa coupling.

This equation describes how the Yukawa coupling changes with energy scale.

This is known as a ( quasi-infrared ) fixed point of the renormalization group equation for the Yukawa coupling.

In the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model ( MSSM ), there are two Higgs doublets and the renormalization group equation for the top quark Yukawa coupling is slightly modified.

Each particle that couples to the Higgs field has a Yukawa coupling λ < sub > f </ sub >.

Also, the mass of a fermion is proportional to its Yukawa coupling, meaning that the Higgs boson will couple most to the most massive particle.

The Yukawa interaction is also used in the Standard Model to describe the coupling between the Higgs field and massless quark and lepton fields ( i. e., the fundamental fermion particles ).

if the dimensionless Yukawa coupling is.

The top quark condenses because its measured mass is approximately 173 GeV ( comparable to the electroweak scale ), and so its Yukawa coupling is of order unity, yielding the possibility of strong coupling dynamics.

The Yukawa coupling is 10 < sub > H </ sub > 16 < sub > f </ sub > 16 < sub > f </ sub >.

We can either include three copies of singlet representations φ and a Yukawa coupling < math ><

The main idea behind the little Higgs models is that the one-loop contribution to the tachyonic Higgs boson mass coming from the top quark cancels ( the other one-loop contributions are small enough that they don't really matter ; the top Yukawa coupling is huge ( because related to its mass ) and all the other Yukawa couplings and gauge couplings are small ).

The obvious renormalizable interaction between the two objects is the Yukawa coupling to a pseudoscalar:

The solution to both these problems comes from the Higgs mechanism, which involves scalar fields ( the number of which depend on the exact form of Higgs mechanism ) which ( to give the briefest possible description ) are " absorbed " by the massive bosons as degrees of freedom, and which couple to the fermions via Yukawa coupling to create what looks like mass terms.

where are 3 × 3 matrices of Yukawa couplings, with the ij term giving the coupling of the generations i and j.

But within the standard model, the right-handed neutrino does not exist, so even with a Yukawa coupling neutrinos remain massless.

The Yukawa coupling 16 < sub > 1H </ sub > 16 < sub > 1 </ sub > 10 < sub >− 2 </ sub > will pair up the 5 < sub >− 2 </ sub > and fermions.

And we can always introduce a sterile neutrino φ which is invariant under × U ( 1 )< sub > B </ sub >/ Z < sub > 4 </ sub > and add the Yukawa coupling

A detailed presentation of the Higgs mechanism is given in the article on the Yukawa interaction, illustrating how it further gives mass to fermions.

The Yukawa potential can be derived as the lowest order amplitude of the interaction of a pair of fermions.

The Yukawa interaction can be used to describe the strong nuclear force between nucleons ( which are fermions ), mediated by pions ( which are pseudoscalar mesons ).

If two fermions interact through a Yukawa interaction with Yukawa particle mass, the potential between the two particles, known as the Yukawa potential, will be:

Yukawa was born in Tokyo and grew up in Kyoto.

The Yukawa couplings of the up, down, charm, strange and bottom quarks, are small at the extremely high energy scale of grand unification, GeV.

Yukawa couplings are not constants and their properties change depending on the energy scale at which they are measured, this is known as running of the constants.

This length scale is determined by the range of the Yukawa potential.

This length scale would be the distance where a Yukawa force is mediated by the weak vector bosons.

The first three are responsible to the gauge symmetry breaking at low energies and give the Higgs mass, and the latter two give the matter particles masses and their Yukawa couplings to the Higgs.

Yukawa called his carrier particle the meson, from mesos, the Greek word for intermediate, because its predicted mass was between that of the electron and that of the proton, which has about 1, 836 times the mass of the electron.

Following the discovery of the pion, Yukawa was awarded the 1949 Nobel Prize in Physics for his predictions.

Proca's equations were known to Wolfgang Pauli who mentioned the equations in his Nobel address, and they were also known to Yukawa, Wentzel, Taketani, Sakata, Kemmer, Heitler, and Fröhlich who appreciated the content of Proca's equations for developing a theory of the atomic nuclei in Nuclear Physics.

; Hideki Yukawa ( member of the Japanese academy of Sciences, director of the Institute of Basic Research at the University of Kyoto ): for outstanding merits in the development of theoretical physics.

Essentially, they are looking for signs that the Yukawa interaction is kicking in at a certain length.

Yukawa became the first chairman of Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics in 1953.

The pion was first proposed to exist by Yukawa in the 1930s as the primary force carrying boson of the Yukawa Potential in nuclear interactions, and was later observed at nearly the same mass that he originally predicted for it.
