A spectrum of localized excitations of isolated static fermions has been\ndiscovered in several different gauge Higgs theories. In lattice numerical\nsimulations, we show that the charged elementary particles can have the\nspectrum of excitations in the Higgs phase of SU(3) gauge Higgs theory, q=2\nAbelian Higgs theory, Landau-Ginzburg theory, and in chiral U(1) gauge Higgs\ntheory. Possibly these excited states of the isolated fermions can be observed\nin ARPES studies of conventional superconductors. Also, we consider that\nsimilar kinds of excitations could exist in other gauge Higgs theories, such as\nthe electroweak sector of the Standard Model.\n
