Derivation of Electroweak Theory Based on an Extension of Special Relativity Black Hole Tachyons & Tachyons of Any Spin

This book extends Special Relativity to include (Superluminal) transformations to reference frames moving at relative velocities greater than the speed of light. Within this framework tachyons of any spin can be defined and second quantized. Tachyons are shown to exist within Black Holes. Further considerations lead to the ElectroWeak Theory for one generation of leptons and quarks. Thus the general form of ElectroWeak theory, including a rationale for the form of parity violation, SU(2) x U(1), and left-handed doublets and right-handed singlets, is derived. Quark confinement is also shown to be necessary. A thorough study is made of tachyon quantization. Free tachyons are shown to violate parity and CPT invariance.
