Deconfined SU(2) phase with a massive vector boson triplet
Abstract
We introduce a model of SU(2) and U(1) vector fields with a local U(2) symmetry. Its action can be obtained in the London limit of a gauge invariant regularization involving two scalar fields. Evidence from lattice simulations of the model supports a (zero temperature) SU(2) deconfining phase transition through breaking of the SU(2) center symmetry, and a massive vector boson triplet is found in the deconfined phase.
