Models of electroweak symmetry breaking with more than a single doublet of Higgs scalars contain a neutral pseudoscalar boson. The production of such a pseudoscalar in hadron collisions proceeds primarily via gluon fusion through a…
We present a brief review of recent attempts to construct effective theories to describe the breaking of the electroweak symmetry in extensions of the Standard Model with new strongly interacting dynamics around the TeV scale. Particular…
The $U_L(2)\bigotimes U_R(2) $ gauge model for the unified theory of the electromagnetic and weak interactions which is free from a prior self-interaction scalar field, is developed. Due to breaking the initial symmetry the…
The structure of the Higgs sector is a major issue in the quest of a detailed description of the electroweak interactions. Most of the effort is devoted to the study of the standard model--like Higgs boson at 126 GeV, however the…
The initial $P$-invariance of the electroweak interaction Lagrangian together with the low-energy results of the Weinberg-Salam model is provided by a local secondary symmetry. Among the transformation parameters of this symmetry there are…
Gildener-Weinberg (GW) models of electroweak symmetry breaking are especially interesting because the low mass and nearly Standard Model couplings of the $125\,{\rm GeV}$ Higgs boson, $H$, are protected by approximate scale symmetry.…
The properties of the effective field theory relevant for the low energy structure generated by the Goldstone bosons of a spontaneously broken symmetry are reexamined. It is shown that anomaly free, Lorentz invariant theories are…
The LHC and other experiments show so far no sign of new physics and long-held beliefs about naturalness should be critically reexamined. We discuss therefore in this paper a model with a combined breaking of conformal and electroweak…
Adding a fourth generation to the Standard Model and assuming it to be valid up to some cutoff \Lambda, we show that electroweak symmetry is broken by radiative corrections due to the fourth generation. The effects of the fourth generation…
We study a left--right symmetric model which contains only elementary gauge boson and fermion fields and no scalars. The phenomenologically required symmetry breaking emerges dynamically leading to a composite Higgs sector with a…
We demonstrate that from a low energy perspective a viable breaking of the electroweak symmetry, as present in nature, can be achieved without the (negative sign) $\mu^2$ mass term in the Higgs potential, thereby avoiding completely the…
The discovery of a light Higgs boson at LHC may be suggesting that we need to revise our model building paradigms to understand the origin of the weak scale. We explore the possibility that the Fermi scale is not fundamental but rather a…
We propose a new mechanism to generate the electroweak scale within the framework of QCD, which is extended to include conformally invariant scalar degrees of freedom belonging to a larger irreducible representation of $SU(3)_c$. The…
I build a SU(2)left x U(1) electroweak gauge theory of J=0 mesons, which transform like sets of fermion-antifermion composite fields. SU(2)left x U(1) is embedded in a natural way, compatible with the Glashow-Salam-Weinberg model for…
While the Higgs model is the best studied scenario of electroweak symmetry breaking, a number strongly-coupled models exist, predicting new signatures. Recent studies of WW and WZ final states at the ATLAS and CMS experiments are summarized…
A study on effective anomalous interactions up to dimension 5 of the top quark with the electroweak gauge bosons is made in the non-linear Chiral Lagrangian approach. Bounds on the anomalous dimension four terms are obtained from their…
In the framework of the effective field theory method, we use the experimental data and the perturbative unitarity bounds to determine the values and uncertainty of all the 11 chiral coefficients ($\al_i, i=0, ..., 10$) of the standard…
We study the most general extension of the MSSM Lagrangian that includes scenarios in which supersymmetry is spontaneously broken at a low scale f. The spurion that parametrizes supersymmetry breaking in the MSSM is promoted to a dynamical…
The process e+e- --> W+W- provides a valuable laboratory to test the Standard Model (SM) and to search for new physics. The most general helicity amplitudes for this process require the introduction of nine form-factors which we calculate…
In this article we investigate a conformal extension of the standard model in which the scalar sector consists of a standard model Higgs doublet, a real gauge singlet and a real $SU(2)_{L}$ triplet. Focusing on the scenario where the Higgs…
