Abstract

A gauge field model, which simultaneously has strict local gauge symmetry and contains massive general gauge bosons, is discussed in this paper. The model has SU(N) gauge symmetry. In order to introduce the mass term of gauge fields directly without violating the gauge symmetry of the theory, two sets of gauge fields will be introduced into the theory. After some transformations, one set of gauge fields obtain masses and another set of gauge fields keep massless. In the limit $α\longrightarrow 0$ or $α\longrightarrow \infty$, the gauge field model discussed in this paper will return to Yang-Mills gauge field model. Finally, some applications of this model are discussed.
