  1. 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].
