Is the Higgs Boson Composed of Neutrinos?

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2020-01-16 v2

Abstract

We show that conventional Higgs compositeness conditions can be achieved by the running of large Higgs-Yukawa couplings involving right-handed neutrinos that become active at 10131014\sim 10^{13}- 10^{14} GeV. Together with a somewhat enhanced quartic coupling, arising by a Higgs portal interaction to a dark matter sector, we can obtain a Higgs boson composed of neutrinos. This is a "next-to-minimal" dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking scheme.
