Unbroken neutral gauge group of a zero-hypercharge real triplet
ID: unbroken-neutral-gauge-group-of-a-zero-hypercharge-real-triplet
A real scalar triplet of weak hypercharge zero with vacuum expectation value breaks but preserves both and the independent weak hypercharge generator. With canonical kinetic terms its gauge-boson mass matrix in is . The two massless neutral gauge bosons prevent this field alone from reproducing Standard Model electroweak symmetry breaking.
