| In the standard model of particle physics, spontaneous symmetry breaking of the {{nowrap|SU(2) × U(1)}} gauge symmetry associated with the electro-weak force generates masses for several particles, and separates the electromagnetic and weak forces. The [[W and Z bosons]] are the elementary particles that mediate the [[weak interaction]], while the [[photon]] mediates the [[electromagnetic interaction]].

| + | 在粒子物理的标准模型中,与电弱力相关的SU(2) × U(1)规范对称性自发破缺产生多种粒子的质量,并将电磁力和弱相互作用分离。W玻色子和Z玻色子是介导弱相互作用的基本粒子,而光子介导电磁相互作用。当能量远远大于100 GeV时,所有这些粒子的行为都相似。Weinberg-Salam理论预测,在较低的能量下,这种对称性被打破,光子和大质量的W和Z玻色子就会出现。此外,费米子不断地发展质量。 |

| Without spontaneous symmetry breaking, the [[Standard Model]] of elementary particle interactions requires the existence of a number of particles. However, some particles (the [[W and Z bosons]]) would then be predicted to be massless, when, in reality, they are observed to have mass. To overcome this, spontaneous symmetry breaking is augmented by the [[Higgs mechanism]] to give these particles mass. It also suggests the presence of a new particle, the [[Higgs boson]], detected in 2012. | | Without spontaneous symmetry breaking, the [[Standard Model]] of elementary particle interactions requires the existence of a number of particles.

| + | 在没有自发对称性破缺的情况下,基本粒子相互作用的标准模型要求存在多种粒子。然而,一些粒子(W玻色子和Z玻色子)将被预测为无质量的,而实际上它们被观察到有质量。为了克服这个问题,希格斯机制增强了自发对称破缺,从而赋予这些粒子质量。它还表明一种新粒子——希格斯玻色子——的存在,它在2012年被实验探测到。 |
