wtf is a "fake vacuum"? why does this imply the existence of a particle called the inflaton?

>fake vacuum
A local minimum that is not the global minimum, ie there are minima below it.
>inflaton
It doesn’t imply it. Inflaton is a hypothetical field needed to drive inflation. Inflation was initially thought up as a second-order phase transition akin to what happens in superconductors and superfluids. Solid state people like Landau, Ginzburg, Bardeen and Cooper showed that such phase transitions are explained by scalar fields. This was applied to cosmology.
An important thing to note is that we still have no evidence of an inflaton. The original paper by Guth proposed that the inflaton is the scalar field that spontaneously breaks the Georgi-Glashow SU(5), which we haven’t observed. Strictly speaking, inflation theory is speculative. Don’t tell this to astrophysicists though, it makes them seethe and throw “it le matches with observations” cope.

Why was the theory for higgs needed?
Why did they think mass could not be an inherent quality?
Why they assume in the beggining was the big bang and the big bang was with the big bang and the big bang big banged and saw that it was good, but it was all massless because ______________
When you bring a N pole of magnet towards N pole of another magnet, you feel a repulsion, is the repulsion you are feeling, photons?

Because the weak force only affects left-handed particles. Those have to be massless. Higgs is a workaround for that.

Explain I don't get it, how does it follow that there is no inherent mass of some particles(because?), but it is given by higgs

>how does it follow that there is no inherent mass of some particles
because those particles participate in the weak interaction (eg beta decay) and the weak interaction only interacts with particles of definite helicity (circular polarization). Massive states are a mix of helicities, so they cannot participate in the weak interaction by definition.

>but it is given by higgs
The Higgs is a workaround. The Higgs interacts with particles via the so-called Yukawa interaction, which in certain cases (eg superconductivity) can simulate mass.

The fact that particles can turn into others is psychotic, if true, and if not. Call an electron fundamental, and then say in a location where no electrons are present, one can appear and we are certain it came from that location where none were.
So weak force holds quarks together, no that's gluons, strong force holds protons to neutrons, weak force.... ohhh I just looked it up, higgs is a made up thing to explain a made up thing

If the Sun shining is psychotic to you, anon, then you should consult your doctor.
>Call an electron fundamental, and then say in a location where no electrons are present, one can appear
The electron field is present everywhere. Electrons are local excitations of the electron field, so there's no problem with them appearing. The electron field doesn't exist on its own, but interacts with other fields, so these interactions produce excitations.
>So weak force holds quarks together, no that's gluons, strong force holds protons to neutrons, weak force...
Sorry for your retardation, anon. They're two completely different forces.
>higgs is a made up thing to explain a made up thing
and somehow it exists in nature. Pretty neat, don't you think?

You can't say every field is present everywhere, there's not enough everywhere for that.
A)an electron is a fundamental particle composed of no parts
B)take non-electron X, Y, and Z and interact them where there is no electron and you will make an electron appear.
Circling back to the first sentence up there.
The Universe as a volume is 100% itself
100% of the universe is electron field
100% of the universe is up quark field
100% of the universe is down quark field
100% of the universe is the other quark fields
100% of the universe is EM field
100% of the universe is gravity field
100% of the universe is the higgs field
100% of the universe is the neutrino field
100% of the universe is the gluon field
100% of the universe is the w and z boson field
100% of the universe is the dark matter field
100% of the universe is the dark energy field
Probably some more too

I can, it's a consequence of translation invariance.

The electron field is always there, it just gets locally excited, which we observe as a particle. It's really simple. Just open a book once in your life.

Reality exists, you can describe it closer and further to accurately.
You believe you are accurately describing reality by saying: multiple real identity quantity and quality things, many types of multiple things, exist at every point of every space in the universe?
Take a cubic planck volume, how many real fields exist in the space and why do you believe you certainly know?
Or a cubic cm volume too.
You think 27 real, seperate, distinct, quantitative qualitative items are packed into every cubic mm of universe space?
Like pixels or chess board squares, all containing the ability to represent any particle, depending on what things pass by?

I agree. The way laws of physics work now is obscene. The Creator meant the universe to work in a specific way, and yet we have different laws of physics because we had the bad luck to land in a local minimum

Yes. You can define multiple functions on a set. The set doesn't care.
