We discuss a mechanism which can reduce the S and T parameters in dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking scenario. It is interesting that not only T but also S parameters can be made small even if large isospin violation exists, which can…
It has been confirmed experimentally the existence of a mass gap between Standard Model (SM) and eventual Beyond Standard Model (BSM) fields. Therefore, the use of effective approaches to search for fingerprints of New Physics is very…

Accepting that there is a mass gap above the electroweak scale, the Electroweak Effective Theory (EWET) is an appropriate tool to describe this situation. Since the EWET couplings contain information on the unknown high-energy dynamics, we…
