A topcolor model is presented that contains both composite and fundamental scalar fields. Strong dynamics accounts for most of the top quark mass and part of the electroweak symmetry breaking scale. The fundamental scalar is weakly coupled and transmits its share of electroweak symmetry breaking to the light fermions. The model is allowed by the current experimental bounds, and can give a potentially large contribution to [Formula: see text] mixing.

Renormalization Group Approach

The dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking of the Standard Model triggered by a top quark condensate (induced by an effective strong interaction, associated with a highenergy scale, of the form [Formula: see text]) usually requires an embarrassingly large top quark mass. A suggestion that this problem could be avoided through the introduction of an additional interaction [Formula: see text] (where [Formula: see text] are SU(3)c generators á la Okubo) is analyzed using the renormalization group approach. The mass of the top quark and the concomitant emergence of colored composite bosons is discussed.

Model Scheme

In this paper, we propose an effective model scheme that describes the electroweak symmetry breaking sector by means of composite Higgs-like scalars, following the ideas of Minimal Walking Technicolor (MWT). We argue that, because of the general failure of Extended Technicolor (ETC) to explain the mass of the top quark, it is necessary to introduce two composite Higgs bosons: one of them originated by a MWT–ETC sector and the other produced by a Topcolor sector. We focus on the phenomenological differences between the light composite Higgs present in our model and the fundamental Higgs boson predicted by the Standard Model and their production at the LHC. We show that in this scheme the main production channel of the lighter Higgs boson is the associated production with a gauge boson and WW fusion but not the gluon–gluon fusion channel which is substantially suppressed.

Weak Doublet

We introduce a toy model implementing the proposal of using a custodial symmetry to protect the [Formula: see text] coupling from large corrections. This "doublet-extended standard model" adds a weak doublet of fermions (including a heavy partner of the top quark) to the particle content of the standard model in order to implement an O(4) × U(1)X ~ SU(2)L × SU(2)R × PLR × U(1)X symmetry in the top-quark mass generating sector. This symmetry is softly broken to the gauged SU(2)L × U(1)Y electroweak symmetry by a Dirac mass M for the new doublet; adjusting the value of M allows us to explore the range of possibilities between the O(4)-symmetric (M → 0) and standard-model-like (M → ∞) limits.
