We consider systems which exhibit typical critical dependence of the specific heat: $\Delta c\varpropto (T_C-T)^{-\gamma}$ ($T<T_C$); $\Delta c\varpropto (T-T_C)^{-\gamma ^{\prime}}$ ($T>T_C$) where $\gamma $,$\gamma ^{\prime}$ are critical…

The properties of the Higgs potential are determined by three parameters: the mass parameter, the quartic self-coupling, and a constant term. Remarkably, all three of these parameters seem subject to a significant amount of fine-tuning. All…
