Electroweak Scale

In particle physics, the electroweak scale is the energy scale around 246 GeV, a typical energy of processes described by the electroweak theory. The particular number 246 GeV is taken to be the vacuum expectation value of the Higgs field (where is the Fermi coupling constant).

Famous quotes containing the word scale:

    I own I never really warmed
    To the reformer or reformed.
    And yet conversion has its place
    Not halfway down the scale of grace.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
