The Strongly Coupled Standard Model predicts a rich spectrum of excited states at the Fermi scale. We study the first radial excitations of the vector bosons. The inclusion of these new states affects the low energy phenomenology of the…
Low-dimensional materials differ from their bulk counterpart in many respects. In particular, the screening of the Coulomb interaction is strongly reduced, which can have important consequences such as the significant increase of exciton…
