abstract
We examine the effects of new physics effecting the Higgs sector of the standard model, focusing on the effects on the Higgs self couplings. We demonstrate that a low mass higgs, m_h < 2 m_t, can have a strong effective self coupling due to the effects of a new interaction at a TeV. We investigate the possibility that the first evidence of such an interaction could be a higgs-higgs bound state. To this end, we construct an effective field theory formalism to examine the physics of such a low mass higgs boson. We explore the possibility of a non relativistic bound state of the higgs field (Higgsium) at LHC and construct a non relativistic effective field theory of the higgs sector that is appropriate for such studies (NRHET).

Consistent NLO power counting in HEFT for di-Higgs gluon fusion requires higher-dimensional operators beyond leading order, affecting kinematic benchmarks used in experiments.
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.
High-energy amplitude ratios for longitudinal di-boson production approach unity in the SM and dimension-6 SMEFT but not necessarily in HEFT, making the W±_L Z_L to W±_L h cross section ratio a promising discriminator between linear and non-linear electroweak symmetry at the HL-LHC.

Electroweak Restoration: SMEFT and HEFT
High-energy amplitude ratios for longitudinal di-boson production approach unity in the SM and dimension-6 SMEFT but not necessarily in HEFT, making the W±_L Z_L to W±_L h cross section ratio a promising discriminator between linear and non-linear electroweak symmetry at the HL-LHC.
