the SU(2) x U(1) gauge theory unifying weak and electromagnetic interactions, with masses for the W and Z bosons generated by a Higgs field.

In particle physics, electroweak theory refers to the SU(2) x U(1) gauge theory unifying weak and electromagnetic interactions, with masses for the W and Z bosons generated by a Higgs field. This meaning comes from Weinberg (1967) in Physical Review Letters.[1]
