Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking
Linked via "scalar boson"
Three massive gauge bosons}: $W^+$, $W^-$, and $Z^0$.
One massless gauge boson}: the photon ($\gamma$)}.
One massive scalar boson}: the Higgs boson} ($H$).
Early formulations, such as those developed by Glashow, predicted the structure of the massive weak mediators ($W1, W2, W_3$) before the consistent mapping to the physical $W^\pm$ and $Z^0$ states through the SSB formalism was fully established [5].
