2 The Higgs Mechanism Realization of Symmetries we met: Global symmetry conserved current. SSB of Global Symmetry:interactions are constraint, coupling constants related; for continuous symm, current is still Conserved, massless Goldstone. Gauge symmetry: local symmetry, require massless vector bosons, interactions are highly restricted. What happens if we combine SSB and local gauge symmetry? gauge boson acquire masses, and we can choose a gauge s.t. the goldstone degree of freedom becomes the third d.o.f of the massvie gauge boson.
3 The Higgs Mechanism An Abelian example: L = 4 (Fµν + D µϕ V(ϕ, D µ = µ + iea µ. gauge symmetry: ϕ(x e iα ϕ(x, A µ(x A µ e µα(x. Choose Potential: V(ϕ = µ ϕ ϕ + λ (ϕ ϕ, µ > 0 minimum of the potential : ϕ = ϕ 0 = µ λ. We choose the real vev: ϕ = ϕ 0 = µ λ. Expand about ϕ 0, ϕ = ϕ 0 + (ϕ (x + iϕ (x, potential, quadratic terms: V(ϕ (µ ϕ + O(ϕ 3 i, m = µ, m = 0. ϕ goldstone. kinetic terms: D µϕ = µ ϕ µϕ iea µ( µ ϕ ϕ + ϕ µ ϕ + e ϕ ϕa µa µ = ( ϕ + ( ϕ + eϕ 0 A µ µ ϕ + e ϕ 0A µa µ +... A µ acquire mass: m A = e ϕ 0, m AA µ A µ = m A(A 0 A 0 A i A i, physical space-like A i have the correct sign of mass.
4 The Higgs Mechanism There is an interaction term: L eϕ 0A µ µ ϕ, mixing term between A µ gauge boson and ϕ goldstone. No eϕ 0A µ µ ϕ term, cancelled. Recall in QED, photon does not acquire mass, photon selfenergy PI (k g µν k µ k ν Π(k, Π(k does not have /k pole. photon propagator: i(gµν k µ k ν /k i ξkµ k ν. If Π(k has a /k pole, photon k ( Π(k k 4 acquire mass. Goldstone provides the right pole to give mass to gauge boson and make the vacuum polarization amplitude properly transverse. il eϕ 0A µ( ik µ ϕ (k = m A k µ ϕ (k Also treat mass term as perturbation:
5 The Higgs Mechanism massless vector: two physical transverse polarizations. Massive vector boson, three physical d.o.f.: µf µν + m A ν = 0, µa µ µ νf µν = 0. k ϵ = 0. k = m. Three space-like polarization vectors. k µ = (E, 0, 0, k, ϵ T( = (0,, 0, 0, ϵ T( = (0, 0,, 0, ϵ L = (k, 0, 0, E, longitudinal polarization. Roughly m speaking, Goldstone provides the third d.o.f of the massive gauge boson. Unitary gauge: the Goldstone does not appear as an independent physical particle. Decompose ϕ(x = e iα(x ϕ (x, ϕ a real field. ϕ (x = σ(x + ϕ 0. ϕ 0 = µ λ is the v.e.v. α(x can be gauged away.a µ = A µ + i e µα. L = 4 (Fµν + D µϕ V(ϕ = 4 (F µν + (D µϕ D µ ϕ V(ϕ rename ϕ ϕ ========== A A 4 (Fµν + ( µ iea µϕ( µ + iea µ ϕ V(ϕ m A = e ϕ 0 = 4 (Fµν + ( µϕ + e ϕ A µa µ V(ϕ = 4 (Fµν + ( µσ + e ( ( σ + ϕ 0 A µa µ V σ + ϕ 0 = + e ϕ 0 AµAµ + e σ A µa µ + ( e ϕ 0 σa µa µ V σ + ϕ 0 = e µ λ, m σ = µ. No goldstone modes in the Lagangian.
6 The Higgs Mechanism SSB with Non-Abelian gauge symmetry: ϕ i real. ( complex ϕ (ϕ + iϕ. Symmetric transformation: ϕ ( + iα a t a ijϕ j = ( α a T a ijϕ j, t a : pure imaginary, hermitian. T a = it a real anti-symmetric. Covariant derivative D µϕ = ( µ iga a µt a ϕ = ( µ + ga a µt a ϕ Kinetic term: D µϕ id µ ϕ i = µϕ µ ϕ + ga a µ µ ϕ it a ijϕ j + g A a µa bµ (T a ϕ i(t b ϕ i i SSB: ϕ i = (ϕ 0 i + ϕ i(x, Ω ϕ i Ω = (ϕ 0 i mass matrix: (m ab = g i (Ta ϕ 0 i(t b ϕ 0 i. (m ab positive semi-definite: v a m ab v b = g i [va (T a ϕ 0 i ] 0. Positive eigenvalues: massive gauge bosons. Zero-eigenvalues: massless gauge bosons. Unbroken generators: T a ij ϕ 0,j = 0, (m ab = 0, for b. Broken generators: T a ij ϕ 0,j 0, also T b (m ab 0. Linearly independent broken generators, (m ab nondegenerate, nonvanishing eigenvalues, massive gauge boson. Broken generators massive gauge bosons, also correspond to goldstones. Unbroken generators : massless gauge bosons.

8 The Higgs Mechanism A Non-Abelian example: ϕ = ( ϕ ϕ, ϕ (, doublet complex fields in SU( fundamental rep.. Covariant derivative : D µϕ = ( µ iga a µτ a ϕ. τ a = σa. SSB: ϕ = ( 0, we can always choose unitary transformation s.t. ϕ = 0 ( = ϕ v 0. Expand ϕ = ϕ 0 + π +iπ π 3 +iπ 4 Gauge boson mass from: D µϕ g ϕ 0 AµAµ ϕ 0 = g ( 0 v τ a τ b ( 0 v A a µa b,µ = g v 8 Aa µa a,µ A,,3 all are massive. m A = gv. All the SU( symmetry are broken: ( iτ 0 = ( ( iv π v 0, iτ 0 = ( ( v π v 0, iτ 3 0 = ( 0 π v iv 4 Goldstone : π, π, π 4.
9 The Higgs Mechanism SU( adjoint rep.: ϕ a, real fields, a =, Covariant derivative: D µϕ a = ϕ a + gϵ abc A b µϕ c.

We would expect the A µ, A µ are massive, and A 3 µ is massless. mass terms from kinetic energy part:(using ϵ abc ϵ ab c = δ bb δ cc δ bc δ cb. Dµϕa D µ ϕ a g (ϵ abc A b µ ϕ 0,c(ϵ ab c Aµ,b ϕ 0,c a = g (A a µ Aa,µ ϕ 0 Ab µ Ac,µ ϕ b 0 ϕc 0 = g v ((A µ + (A µ Only A µ, A µ acquire masses: m = m = gv. A 3 remains massless. v
10 The Higgs Mechanism ( Unitarity gauge: ϕ = e i(t φ +t φ 00 φ φ, φ = Kinetic part: (Dµϕ (Dµφ = µ σ µσ + g ((A µ + (A µ (v + σ. v+σ. V[ϕ] V[φ] = µ (σ + v + λ (v + σ4 4. Two of the gauge bosons acquire the same mass and one remain massless.
11 The Higgs Mechanism Another example: SU(3 gauge theory: ϕ a in adjoint rep., a =,... 8 t a, 3 3 matrix in fundamental rep. tr(t a t b = δab, Define Φ = ϕ a t a, A µ = A a µt a. Φ transforms as: Φ e iαa t a Φe iαta = Φ + iα a [t a, Φ] +..., Infinitesimal: δφ = iα[t a, Φ]. If i[t a, Φ 0] = 0, t a unbroken generators. If i[t a, Φ 0] 0, t a broken generators. Covariant derivative:(d µϕ a = µϕ a + gf abc A b µϕ c, in Φ, D µφ = µφ ig[a µ, Φ] A µ mass term from kinetic part: [(Dµϕa ] = tr[(d µφ ] g tr ( [A µ, Φ][A µ, Φ] = g tr ( [t a, Φ][t b, Φ] A a µa b,µ. m ab = g tr ( [t a, Φ 0][t b, Φ 0]. Vev of Φ, Φ = Φ 0, hermitian and traceless, can be diagonalized by unitary transformaion, eigenvalues are real. Different vev can have different breaking pattern. Diagonal traceless real matrix: independent, ( and SU(3 generators: ( t a τ a 0 =, for a =,, 3; t 8 = t 4 = ( 0 ; t 5 = ( i 0 i ( 0. ( ; t 6 = ( 0 ; t 7 = ( 0 i i

Mass matrix m ab = g tr ( [t a, Φ 0][t b, Φ 0] [t 4, Φ] = 3[t 4, t 8 ] ϕ 0 = 3it 5 ϕ 0, [t 5, Φ] = 3[t 5, t 8 ] ϕ 0 = 3it 4 ϕ 0, [t 6, Φ] = 3[t 6, t 8 ] = 3it 7 ϕ 0, [t 7, Φ] = 3[t 7, t 8 ] = 3it 6 ϕ 0, mass term: m ab = g tr ( [t a, Φ 0][t b, Φ 0] A a µa µ,b = 9g ϕ 0 a=4,5,6,7 Aa µa µ,a, m 4,5,6,7 = 9g ϕ 0 = (3g ϕ 0. m,,3,8 = 0.
13 The Higgs Mechanism ( Another: Φ 0 = ϕ 0 = ϕ 0 t 3. 0 Only t 3, t 8 commute with Φ 0, unbroken, U( U( unbroken. t,,4,5,6,7 are broken. m ab = g tr ( [t a, Φ 0][t b, Φ 0] [t, Φ] = [t, t 3 ] ϕ 0 = it ϕ 0, [t, Φ] = [t, t 3 ] ϕ 0 = it ϕ 0, [t 4, Φ] = [t 4, t 3 ] ϕ 0 = it 5 ϕ 0 [t 5, Φ] = [t 5, t 3 ] ϕ 0 = it 4 ϕ 0, [t 6, Φ] = [t 6, t 3 ] ϕ 0 = it 7 ϕ 0, [t 7, Φ] = [t 7, t 3 ] ϕ 0 = it 6 ϕ 0 mass term: m aba a µa b,µ = a=4,5,6,7 g ϕ 0 A a µa a,µ + 4g ϕ 0 A a µa a,µ a=, m, = 4g ϕ 0, m 4,5,6,7 = g ϕ 0, m 3,8 = 0. Gauge bosons acquire masses: gauge bosons corresponding to broken generators split to different masses.
14 Formal description of the Higgs Mechanism: Global symmetry of L 0 conserved current J µ. If we require the global symmetry parameter to depend on x, continuous and differentiable and nonvanishing in a small region: δl = ( µα a J µ,a. For on-shell fields d 4 xδl on shell fields = 0, d 4 x µαj µ,a = α µj µ,a = 0 µj µ,a = 0. J µ,a is the conserved Noether current. If we require the local invariance: introducing A µ L = L 0 ga a µj µ,a + O(A ; A a µ A a µ + µα + O(A g The gauge field is always coupled to the global current at O(g. Global SSB: for broken generators, J µ,a destroy or create the Goldstone π k, Ω J µ,a π k (p = ip µ F a ke ip x, in general F a k depends only on Lorentz invariant p of on-shell π k. F a k constants. F a k 0 for broken generators t a, and F a k = 0 for unbroken generators. J µ,a conserved: 0 = µ Ω J µ,a π k (p = p F a ke ip x, so p = 0. example: For weakly coupled scalar theory, Noether current J µ,a = µϕ it a ijϕ j, Ω µϕ it a ijϕ j ϕ i(p = ip µ(t a ϕ 0 ie ip x, so F a i = T a ijϕ 0j, nonzero only for broken generator direction of Goldstone exitation.
15 Formal description of the Higgs Mechanism: Local symmetry: A µ couples to the Neother current. The corresponding global symmetry is sponteneous broken. Vertex ia a µj µ,a, Amplitude for a gauge boson to convert to a Goldstone: d 4 x k; a ia b µ(xj µ,b (x π j(p = ϵ a µ ( gk µ F a jδ (4 (k p The vacuum polarization diagram of gauge boson: still transverse, (current conservation, ward id. The /k pole term will give the mass to gauge bosons in the propagator contribution from Goldstone. so m ab = g F a jf b j This can be used in any SSB theory, not only in broken by a scalar field v.e.v, but also by nonperturbative effects. Gauge bosons coupled to the SSB currents massive.
16 Gauge theory with SSB An expeimentally correct unified description of electro-weak Interactions, GWS theory. ( Gauge and Scalar sector: Gauge Symmetry: SU( U( Y. Gauge boson A a µ for SU(, and B µ for U( Y. Scalar field: ϕ = (ϕ, ϕ T in fund. rep of SU(. Charge / under U(. Transformation of ϕ: ϕ e iαa τ a e iβ/ ϕ. (τ a = σa, τ 0 = I. If the scalar field get vev: ϕ = ( 0 v : Unbroken generator: τ + τ 0 = ( 0 0 0, Symmetry para: α3 = β, α, = 0. Broken generator (can be a little arbitrary: τ, τ, τ 3 τ 0 = ( We expect that there are three massive gauge boson and one massless gauge boson. Define: ϕ = ( φ +iφ v+φ 3 +iφ 4, Goldstone: iτ ( 0 v = ( iv 0 φ, iτ ( 0 v = ( v 0 φ, i(τ τ 0 ( 0 v = ( 0 iv φ4
17 ( Covariant derivative for ϕ: D µϕ = ( µ iga a τ a ig B µτ 0 ϕ ϕ For direct product group, each simple group factor can have a separate gauge coupling constant. In general, G G, transformation in matrix rep U U = e ita α a e itb β b, we always use t a to represent t a I, T b represents I T b, U U = e ita α a e itb β b iga a µt a ig B b µt b U µu igua a µt a U ig UB b µ T b U =U µu + U µu iguaa µt a U ig U B b µ T b U U A a µt a U only transforms to combinations of ta, not to mix with T a, and similar for T b. So the two kinds of gauge fields transform separately, A a µt a i g U µu + UAa µt a U, Ba µt a i g U µu + UAa µt a U. g and g can be different.

23 Coupling to fermions: If the quantum number of the fermion fields are fixed, the covariant derivatives are uniquely determined fixing the coupling between gauge bosons and fermions. Massless fermions: left-handed and right-handed fermions decouple in kinetic terms: ψi /ψ = ψ Li /ψ L + ψ Ri /ψ R, ψ L,R = ( γ5 ( ± γ5 ψ, ψl,r = ψ ( massive term m ψψ = m( ψ Lψ R + ψ Rψ L So for massless fermions, ψ L and ψ R could be in different representations of the gauge group. In early days, in experiment only left-handed neutrino and no right-handed neutrino were found. Left-handed neutrino presents in the beta decay, coming with lepton, e, or µ. W ± only couples with left-handed states of quark and lepton. We assign the left-handed fermion fields eg. (ν L, e L to SU( doublets, and right-handed fermion fields to singlet. (We still suppose there is no right-handed neutrinoes. We have then T 3 for fermions, and from experiment we have their Q charge quantum numbers. From Q = T 3 + Y, we can find out Y quantum numbers.
