A Higgs-like dilaton: Viability and implications

  • 1. Department of Physics, LEPP, Cornell University, Ithaca NY, 14853 (United States)

Description

We re-examine the feasibility of the Higgs-like particle discovered at the LHC being a dilaton: the Goldstone boson of spontaneous breaking of scale invariance. We review the expected phenomenological deviations from the SM Higgs and compare with other Goldstone Higgs scenarios, with particular emphasis on double Higgs production. (authors)
