The interactions of electroweak gauge bosons are severely constrained by the symmetries inferred from low energy observables. The exploration of the dynamics of electroweak symmetry breaking requires therefore both an experimental…
We discuss how to experimentally study the electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) sector by observing $WW \to WW$ interactions in the TeV region. We discuss some general features of the event structure in the signal and the background events.…
We present some results on the usefulness of upgraded Tevatron, LHC proton proton collider and linear e+e- colliders in the TeV range to test the idea of a strongly interacting sector as responsible for the electroweak symmetry breaking.…
We discuss the prospects for detecting at a muon collider the massive new vector resonances V and light pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons P of a typical strongly interacting electroweak sector (as represented by the BESS model). Expected…
The last years have seen a great development in our understanding of particle physics at the weak scale. Precision electroweak observables have played a key role in this process and their values are consistent, within the Standard Model…
We discuss the excellent prospects for a detailed study of a strongly interacting electroweak sector at a muon collider with c.m. energy $\rts\sim 4\tev$. For expected luminosity of $L=200-1000\fbi$ per year, $\mup\mum$ and $\mup\mup$ (or…
In this work we have studied the phenomenological properties at future e+e- linear colliders of two models of strong electroweak symmetry breaking, characterized by the presence of new spin one strong interacting resonances.
The main attractions of studying the bosonic sector of the electroweak standard model and its extensions at a future high energy photon collider are reviewed. A presentation of the laser scheme for obtaining such a collider is given where…
The existence of a new strong interacting sector around E ~ 1 TeV is a common feature of Higgsless electroweak theories but also of theories with a light Higgs, for instance, when this is not elementary. In those schemes, this new…
It has been argued that if light Higgs bosons do not exist then the self--interactions of $W$'s become strong in the TeV region and can be observed in longitudinal $WW$ scattering. We present a model with many inelastic channels in the $WW$…
It is proposed that, in a strongly-interacting electroweak sector, besides the Goldstone bosons, the coexistence of a scalar state ($H$) and vector resonances such as $A_1$ [$I^G(J^P)=1^-(1^+$)], $V$ [$1^+(1^-)$] and $\omega_H^{}$…
Any consideration of future physics facilities must be made in the context of the Tevatron and the LHC. I discuss some examples of physics results which could emerge from these machines and the resulting questions which would remain for a…
This report summarises the physics opportunities for the study of Higgs bosons and the dynamics of electroweak symmetry breaking at the 100 TeV pp collider.
High-energy data has been accumulating over the last ten years, and it should not be ignored when making decisions about the future experimental program. In particular, we argue that the electroweak data collected at LEP, SLC and Tevatron…
In this paper we survey the signals and backgrounds for a strongly-interacting electroweak symmetry breaking sector at hadron supercolliders in the TeV region. We study the process pp->WWX, and compute the rates for the ``gold-plated''…
The breaking of the electroweak symmetry, and origin of the associated ``weak scale,'' may be due to a new strong interaction. Theoretical developments over the past decade have led to viable models and mechanisms that are consistent with…
It has recently been shown that the studies of strongly-interacting electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) at photon colliders, via photon splitting into $W$ pair followed by longitudinal $W$-boson scattering, could be possible. Here we…
A brief introduction to strong Higgs sector i.e. the possibility of breaking electroweak symmetry without an elementary Higgs is given. Constraints from present LEP data are studied and the discovery potential of future colliders…
We study the processes $W_L W_L \to t \bar t$ and $W_L Z_L \to t\bar b (\bar t b)$ at future lepton colliders as probes of the couplings of the top quark to resonances at the TeV scale. We consider the cases in which the dominant low energy…
The problem of electroweak symmetry breaking is reviewed with discussion of future relevant experimentation at LHC and $e^+e^-$ linear colliders. The possibility of strong electroweak symmetry breaking is examined in more detail, using the…
