Soliton states in the electroweak theory

We find nontopological soliton solutions for the Weinberg-Salam model with a gauged Skyrme term for all values of the Higgs self coupling λ. These solutions approach properly the solution previously found for λ=∞. Their energy is lower and may lead, if they correspond to sufficiently stable states,...

Description
Summary:We find nontopological soliton solutions for the Weinberg-Salam model with a gauged Skyrme term for all values of the Higgs self coupling λ. These solutions approach properly the solution previously found for λ=∞. Their energy is lower and may lead, if they correspond to sufficiently stable states, to spectacular signals in future colliders.
