Flavour and electroweak constraints on composite Higgs models

  • 1. Excellence Cluster Universe, TUM, Garching (Germany)

Description

Composite Higgs Models offer a unified effective description of models with new strong interactions or extra dimensions and are thus of high phenomenological interest. They can naturally account for a light Higgs Boson compatible with LHC data and at the same time are able to give a solution to the hierarchy problem without invoking supersymmetry. Testing these models through direct collider searches is difficult due to their very limited energy reach. An alternative is offered by indirect searches with precision data. We take the latter approach and constrain Composite Higgs Models by certain flavour and electroweak observables.
