•For
those interested, there is an interpretation of scalar
Higgs fields under quantum field theory (see Zeldovich
1986).
•Zero
point vacuum fluctations associated with zero point
energies of quantum fields results in a negative energy equation
of state (having “tension” rather than
“pressure”). Quantum
field theory can then make predictions about the value
of a cosmological constant – and is off by some
120 orders of magnitude! Works for inflationary period,
but not now.
