Symmetry, Confinement, and the Higgs Phase

چکیده
We show that the Higgs and confinement phases of a gauge theory, with field in fundamental representation group, are distinguished both by broken or unbroken realization global center subgroup type each phase. This is color phase, stronger property, which we call “separation-of-charge” confinement, confining

Confinement of Higgs bosons from hidden symmetry and convexity
In the full effective potential (EFP) approach, we find that the fact of spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) can, with the help of the rigorous convexity of the full EFP, lead to the prediction of the IR confinement of Higgs particles, adding difficulty for the experimental identification of Higgs particles unlike the electroweak gauge bosons. We do not specify the explicit form of the Higgs se...
متن کاملStepping Into Electroweak Symmetry Breaking: Phase Transitions and Higgs Phenomenology
Abstract We study the dynamics of electroweak symmetry-breaking in an extension of the Standard Model where the Higgs sector is augmented by the addition of a real (Y = 0) isospin triplet. We show that this scenario exhibits a novel, two-step electroweak phase transition, wherein the first step provides the strongly first order transition as required for electroweak baryogenesis followed by a s...
متن کاملConfinement , Chiral Symmetry , and the Lattice
Two crucial properties of QCD, confinement and chiral symmetry breaking, cannot be understood within the context of conventional Feynman perturbation theory. Non-perturbative phenomena enter the theory in a fundamental way at both the classical and quantum levels. Over the years a coherent qualitative picture of the interplay between chiral symmetry, quantum mechanical anomalies, and the lattic...
متن کاملConfinement, Crossing Symmetry, and Glueballs
It is suggested that the quark-confining force is related by crossing symmetry to a colorsinglet glueball G which is well described as a loop of one quantum of color magnetic flux. Electron pair annihilation as high as ≈ 2GeV above the Υ mass could produce Υ → ll accompanied by G or one of its excited states.
متن کاملChiral Symmetry and Quark Confinement
In the physical vacuum of QCD, the energy density of lightquark fields strongly coupled to slowly varying gluon fields can be negative, and so a condensate of pairs of quarks and antiquarks of nearly opposite momenta forms which breaks chiral symmetry, confines quarks, and makes gluons massive.
