Numerical Simulation of an Electroweak Oscillon
arXiv:0706.4125 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.76.085017
Abstract
Numerical simulations of the bosonic sector of the electroweak Standard Model in 3+1 dimensions have demonstrated the existence of an oscillon -- an extremely long-lived, localized, oscillatory solution to the equations of motion -- when the Higgs mass is equal to twice the boson mass. It contains total energy roughly 30 TeV localized in a region of radius 0.05 fm. A detailed description of these numerical results is presented.
