(*)Nambu-Goldstone particles.
A particle originally hypothesized by this man can be created when proton-proton collisions cause two gluons to form a top quark loop, or by a process wherein a fermion-antifermion collision creates a virtual particle that emits the desired particle in a namesake strahlung. One phenomenon named for this man is modeled by a "Mexican-hat" shaped potential, in which a transition from the local maximum at the origin to a state in the ring of minimal potential generates four non- (*)Nambu-Goldstone particles. Following that episode of spontaneous symmetry-breaking, three of the resulting particles are "eaten," completing this man's namesake mechanism, which results in massive W and Z bosons. Alongside Francois Englert, this man won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Physics. For 10 points, identify this namesake of a boson that, in the Standard Model, is created from the field that gives rise to mass.
