Abstract

We have reviewed the GWS theory of weak and electromagnetic interaction among leptons and study their property. Thus electroweak interaction emits intermediate vector bosons (W and Z), just as photon is emitted in the case of QED. Intermediate vector bosons have to be massive so that we have reviewed their masses MW = 1 2g and MZ = 1 2 p g2 + g02 in the frame work of Higgs mechanism which is applied to break uni ed SU(2) U(1) symmetry spontanously. The Lagrangian that describes the com- plete interaction and the decay of W􀀀 boson is nally presented in this thesis
