We discuss the postulate that the U(1) gauge group describing photon propagation results from a dynamically broken SU(2) gauge theory. In the context of Yang-Mills thermodynamics such a symmetry breaking occurs via the non-trivial ground state. As a result of the interaction with the quasi particles of the theory the photon acquires an effective, temperature and momentum dependent, mass. We explain how this leads to modified black body spectra at temperatures of about 5 K. Furthermore, we discuss the properties and effects of an emergent longitudinal polarization.
