$\mathrm{SU}(2)$ is the Sato-Tate group of any non-CM elliptic curve $E$ over a number field $K$.

As conjectured by Mikio Sato and John Tate and proved by Richard Taylor et al., when $K=\Q$ the normalized Frobenius traces of $E$ are equidistributed with respect to the Haar measure on $\mathrm{SU}(2)$.

The Sato-Tate conjecture for elliptic curves over number fields has been proved for totally real fields (including $\Q$) [10.4007/annals.2010.171.779, 10.1007/s10240-008-0015-2], and CM fields [arXiv:1812.09999].
