Vector boson

boson whose spin is 1

Guage bosons are vector bosons.

Graviton 2, Higgs (Scalar boson) 0

 A theory able to finally explain mass generation without "breaking" gauge theory was published almost simultaneously by three independent groups in 1964

 The view of the Higgs mechanism as involving spontaneous symmetry breaking of a gauge symmetry is technically incorrect since by Elitzur's theorem gauge symmetries can never be spontaneously broken.

 Higgs boson : scalar boson

 In quantum field theory and statistical field theory, Elitzur's theorem states that in gauge theories, the only operators that can have non-vanishing expectation values are ones that are invariant under local gauge transformations. An important implication is that gauge symmetry cannot be spontaneously broken. The theorem was proved in 1975 by Shmuel Elitzur in lattice field theory,[1] although the same result is expected to hold in the continuum. The theorem shows that the naive interpretation of the Higgs mechanism as the spontaneous symmetry breaking of a gauge symmetry is incorrect, although the phenomenon can be reformulated entirely in terms of gauge invariant quantities in what is known as the Fröhlich–Morchio–Strocchi mechanism.[2]
