## TL;DR

This paper analyzes the properties and mass bounds of the Electroweak-Skyrmion within the Standard Model, considering higher-order terms and discussing its potential as dark matter.

## Contribution

It provides an upper mass bound for the Electroweak-Skyrmion based on experimental constraints and explores how modifications affect its properties.

## Key findings

- Upper mass bound of about 10 TeV for the Electroweak-Skyrmion
- Impact of higher-order terms on Skyrmion properties
- Discussion of Electroweak-Skyrmion as a dark matter candidate

## Abstract

We discuss the properties of the topological soliton, or the Electroweak-Skyrmion, in the system of the Standard Model Higgs Lagrangian with addition of general O(p^4) terms. We show that the upper bound on the mass of the Electroweak-Skyrmion is about 10 TeV, which is obtained from currently available experimental constraints on coefficients of O(p^4) terms. The impact on the properties of the Electroweak-Skyrmion due to further modification of the Lagrangian is also discussed, and comments on possible mechanisms for the generation of the Electroweak-Skyrmion in the early Universe as a dark matter are given.
