Ernest Ma (UC Riverside, HKUST-JCIAS)

TL;DR
This paper explores SU(2) gauge theories as antecedents to the U(1) Higgs model, introducing new variants including a novel 'quantum scotodynamics' example relevant to dark matter research.
Contribution
It presents a detailed analysis of SU(2) gauge models related to the U(1) Higgs model, including the proposal of a new 'quantum scotodynamics' framework.
Findings
Identified three SU(2) models related to the U(1) Higgs model.
Introduced 'quantum scotodynamics' as a new theoretical example.
Discussed implications for dark matter models.
Abstract
The original spontaneously broken U(1) gauge model with one complex Higgs scalar field has been known in recent years as a possible prototype dark-matter model. Its antecedents in the context of SU(2) are discussed. Three specific examples are described, with one dubbed "quantum scotodynamics".
