Naturalness, chiral symmetry, and spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking
G Hooft - Recent developments in gauge theories, 1980 - Springer
A properly called “naturalness” is imposed on gauge theories. It is an order-of-magnitude
restriction that must hold at all energy scales μ. To construct models with complete naturalness …
