The present and future of four top operators
We study the phenomenology of a strongly-interacting top quark at future hadron and lepton colliders, showing that the characteristic four-top contact operators give rise to the most significant effects.

Composite scalars at CERN LEP: Constraining technicolor theories [PDF]
CERN LEP I and LEP II data can be used to constrain technicolor models with light, neutral pseudo-- Nambu-Goldstone bosons ${P}^{a}.$ We use published limits on branching ratios and cross sections for final states with photons, large missing energy, jet ...

Higgs boson compositeness is a phenomenologically viable scenario addressing the hierarchy problem. In minimal models, the Higgs boson is the only degree of freedom of the strong sector below the strong interaction scale.

The light composite Higgs boson in strong extended technicolor
This paper extends an earlier one describing the Higgs boson H as a light composite scalar in a strong extended technicolor model of electroweak symmetry breaking. The Higgs mass M H is made much smaller than ΛETC by tuning the ETC coupling very close to

Fundamental composite electroweak dynamics: Status at the LHC [PDF]
We determine the current status of the fundamental composite electroweak dy- namics paradigm after the discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider experi- ments.

Many composite Higgs models predict the existence of vector-like quarks with masses outside the reach of the LHC, e.g. m Q ≳ 2 TeV, in particular if these models contain a dark matter candidate.

The W boson mass weighs in on the non-standard Higgs
We consider the implications of the CDF collaboration high-precision measurement of the W boson mass on models with a non-standard Higgs. We show that this requires an enhancement of more than 5% in the non-standard Higgs coupling to the gauge bosons ...

Chiral-symmetric technicolor with standard model Higgs boson [PDF]
Most of the traditional technicolor-based models are known to be in a strong tension with the electroweak precision tests. We show that this serious issue is naturally cured in strongly coupled sectors with chiral-symmetric vectorlike gauge interactions ...

Effective theories of dark mesons with custodial symmetry
Dark mesons are bosonic composites of a new, strongly-coupled sector beyond the Standard Model. We consider several dark sectors with fermions that transform under the electroweak group, as arise from a variety of models including strongly-coupled ...

Partially composite Goldstone Higgs boson [PDF]
We consider a model of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking with a partially composite Goldstone Higgs. The model is based on a strongly-interacting fermionic sector coupled to a fundamental scalar sector via Yukawa interactions.
