Planck and electroweak scales emerging from conformal gravity
Abstract We show that both the Planck and electroweak mass scales can be generated from conformal gravity via the Coleman–Weinberg mechanism of dimensional transmutation. At the first step, the Planck scale is generated via the Coleman–Weinberg mechanism in the sector of conformal gravity, which mea...
