Rotating Electroweak Sphaleron-Antisphaleron Systems

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-05-18 v1

Abstract

At finite weak mixing angle the sphaleron solution of Weinberg-Salam theory can be endowed with angular momentum proportional to the electric charge. Here we show, that this holds also for sphaleron-antisphaleron systems such as pairs, chains and vortex rings. We also address the equilibrium conditions for these solutions.
