I'm having trouble with the following:
technicolour predicts new massless techniquarks.
The technicolour force breaks the chiral symmetries of these quarks and goldstone bosons emerge. But goldstone bosons are massless? Goldstone bosons are eaten by W and Z and thus W and Z acquire mass.
This would make sense to me if the emerging Goldstone bosons were not massless... Could anyone clarify?
