Electroweak-scale vacuum-energy naturalness estimate

ID: electroweak-scale-vacuum-energy-naturalness-estimate

A heavy field with mass introduces a natural vacuum-energy threshold scale of order up to couplings and loop factors. This is not a regulator-independent prediction: counterterms and renormalization are required. Comparing an electroweak mass to the observed vacuum density exposes a very large cancellation problem.
