abstract

We present a class of composite Higgs models arising from a warped extra dimension that can satisfy all the electroweak precision tests in a significant portion of their parameter space. A custodial symmetry plays a crucial role in keeping the largest corrections to the electroweak observables below their experimental limits. In these models the heaviness of the top quark is not only essential to trigger the electroweak symmetry breaking, but it also implies that the lowest top resonance and its custodial partners, the custodians, are significantly lighter than the other resonances. These custodians are the trademark of these scenarios. They are exotic colored fermions of electromagnetic charges 5/3, 2/3 and -1/3, with masses predicted roughly in the range 500-1500 GeV. We discuss their production and detection at the LHC.

The Art of Counting: a reappraisal of the HEFT expansion

hep-ph · 2025-11-28 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

HEFT admits two consistent power counting schemes, one with a single low-energy scale v and one with two scales v < f, each allowing systematic truncation of operators and amplitudes for any normalization choice.
