Linear $\sigma$ model for the Goldstone Higgs - Experimental tests

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2016-05-25 v1

Abstract

In order to explore a possible dynamical nature for the Higgs field (such as its being a pseudo-Goldstone boson) we develop a renormalizable Lagrangian based on the minimal SO(5)SO(5) linear σ\sigma-model with the symmetry softly broken to SO(4)SO(4), including gauge bosons and fermions. We then present the phenomenological implications and constraints from precision observables and the impact on present and future LHC data.
