Present status of electroweak precision tests via the weak boson masses is reviewed, emphasizing that the standard SU(2) × U(1) theory is phenomenologically very successful also at quantum correction level. In particular, it is shown that the latest experimental data indicate the existence not only of the whole one-loop corrections but also of the non-decoupling top-quark effects, independent of the Higgs mass, which are a characteristic feature of theories with masses generated by spontaneous symmetry breakdown plus large Yukawa couplings.

We propose a spinorial approach to the unified electroweak interactions, in which no use is made of spontaneous symmetry breakdown. No scalar particles are needed in order to break the symmetry. No reference is made to gauge symmetry. Our approach stresses the role of space–time and isospin symmetries in the build up of the electroweak model. Internal degrees of freedom, such as isospin, are incorporated in the theory by using spinors carrying isospin indices. All vector bosons are described by a rank 2 field in the spinorial and the isospinorial indices. Leptons are accomodated in a rank 1 spinor field and in a rank 2 isospin field as well. The dynamical variables of the theory are the chiral and isochiral components of these fields.
