Lattice Simulations of the SU(2)-Multi-Higgs Phase Transition
The Higgs boson has an important role in the theoretical formulation of the standard model of fundamental interactions. Symmetry breaking of the vacuum via the Higgs field allows the gauge bosons of the weak interaction and all fermions to acquire mass in a way that preserves gauge-invariance, and t...
