   Linked via "Higgs-like particles"

   In models utilizing the Mexican Hat Potential (or related structures like the Tequila Sunrise Potential [3]), the symmetry breaking occurs when the field $\phi$ acquires a non-zero VEV/), $v$. The excitations around this VEV/) are categorized:
   Radial Modes: These correspond to motion perpendicular to the minimum energy trough, resulting in massive scalar excitations (sometimes called [Higgs-like p…
