Spontaneous symmetry breaking and chiral symmetry [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2000 In this introductory lecture, some basic features of the spontaneous symmetry breaking are discussed. More specifically, $ $-model, non-linear realization, and some examples of spontaneous symmetry breaking in the non-relativistic system are discussed in details. The approach here is more pedagogical than rigorous and the purpose is to get some simple

Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking in 5D Conformally Invariant Gravity [PDF]
Advances in High Energy Physics, 2016 We explore the possibility of the spontaneous symmetry breaking in 5D conformally invariant gravity, whose action consists of a scalar field nonminimally coupled to the curvature with its potential. Performing dimensional reduction via ADM decomposition,

A zero-mode mechanism for spontaneous symmetry breaking in a turbulent von Kármán flow [PDF]
New Journal of Physics, 2014 We suggest that the dynamical spontaneous symmetry breaking reported in a turbulent swirling flow at Re = 40 000 by Cortet et al (2010 Phys. Rev. Lett. 105 214501) can be described through a continuous one parameter family transformation (amounting to a

A holographic perspective on phonons and pseudo-phonons [PDF]
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 We analyze the concomitant spontaneous breaking of translation and conformal symmetries by introducing in a CFT a complex scalar operator that acquires a spatially dependent expectation value.

Spontaneous symmetry breaking of dissipative optical solitons in a two-component Kerr resonator [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 Dissipative solitons and their symmetry breaking is important for photonic applications. Here the authors show that dissipative solitons can undergo spontaneous symmetry breaking in a two-component nonlinear optical ring resonator, resulting in the ...

Spontaneous symmetry breaking and panic escape. [PDF]
PLoS ONEPanic-induced herding in individuals often leads to social disasters, resulting in people being trapped and trampled in crowd stampedes triggered by panic.

Spontaneous symmetry breaking in polar fluids [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsSpontaneous symmetry breaking and emergent polar order are each of fundamental importance to a range of scientific disciplines, as well as generating rich phase behaviour in liquid crystals (LCs). Here, we show the union of these phenomena to lead to two

Spontaneous symmetry breaking from anyon condensation
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2019 In a physical system undergoing a continuous quantum phase transition, spontaneous symmetry breaking occurs when certain symmetries of the Hamiltonian fail to be preserved in the ground state.

Spontaneous symmetry breaking through mixing [PDF]
Europhysics Letters (EPL), 2006 We discuss a model, in which the negative mass square needed in the Higgs mechanism is generated by mixing with a heavy scalar. We have two scalar doublets in the standard model. Phenomenological properties of the heavy new scalar are discussed. The heavy scalar can be detected by the LHC.
