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.

We work out simple tree level relations in a top condensate model with dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking. We find that in this picture the mass of the composite Higgs boson at tree level is given by [Formula: see text] where mt is the mass of the top quark.

Breaking Mechanism

Models with extended Higgs boson sectors are of prime importance for investigating the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking for Higgs decays into four fermions and for Higgs-production in association with a vector bosons. In the framework of the Two-Higgs-Doublet Model using two scenarios obtained from the experimental measurements we presented next-to-leading-order results on the four-fermion decays of light CP-even Higgs boson, h → 4f. With the help of Monte Carlo program Prophecy 4f 3.0, we calculated the values Γ = ΓEW/(ΓEW + ΓSM) and Γ = ΓEW+QCD/(ΓEW+QCD + ΓSM) for Higgs boson decay channels H → νµµeνe, µµee, eeee. We didn’t find significant difference when accounting QCD corrections to EW processes in the decay modes of Higgs boson. Using computer programs Pythia 8.2 and FeynHiggs we calculated the following values: σ(V BH)BR(H → ZZ) and σ(V BF)BR(H → WW) for VBF production processes, σ(ggH)BR(H → WW) and σ(ggH)BR(H → ZZ) for gluon fusion production process at 13 and 14 TeV and found good agreement with experimental data.

The Standard Model

The new particle around 125 GeV observed at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is almost consistent with the standard model (SM) Higgs boson, except that the diphoton decay mode may be excessive. We summarize a number of possibilities. While at the LHC the dominant production mechanism for the Higgs boson of SM and some other extensions is via the gluon fusion process, the alternative vector-boson fusion (VBF) is more sensitive to electroweak symmetry breaking. Using the well-known dijet-tagging technique to single out the VBF mechanism, we investigate potential of VBF to discriminate a number of models suggested to give an enhanced inclusive diphoton production rate.

This review provides an elementary discussion of electroweak symmetry breaking in the minimal and the next-to-minimal supersymmetric models with the focus on the fine-tuning problem — the tension between natural electroweak symmetry breaking and the direct search limit on the Higgs boson mass. Two generic solutions of the fine-tuning problem are discussed in detail: models with unusual Higgs decays; and models with unusual pattern of soft supersymmetry breaking parameters.

Dynamical Mechanism

Production cross-sections of color-sextet quarks at hadron colliders are estimated in various energies and the results are compared with cross-sections of the conventional top quark productions. Particular attentions are paid for a model recently proposed in Ref. 2 in order to explain the dynamical mechanism of the electroweak symmetry breaking. The model may be tested at SSC and LHC if the sextet quarks dominantly decay semileptonically through effective fourfermion interactions, or if the sextet quarks have long enough lifetime to reach the detectors.

The Standard Model

Recently, conceptually new physics beyond the Standard Model has been proposed by Georgi, where a new physics sector becomes conformal and provides "unparticle" which couples to the Standard Model sector through higher dimensional operators in low energy effective theory. Among several possibilities, we focus on operators involving the unparticle and Higgs boson. Once the Higgs develops the vacuum expectation value (VEV), the conformal symmetry is broken and as a result, the mixing between the unparticle and the Higgs boson emerges. In the former part of this paper, we consider a natural realization of bosonic seesaw in the context of unparticle physics. In this framework, the negative mass squared or the electroweak symmetry breaking vacuum is achieved as a result of mass matrix diagonalization. So, the bosonic seesaw mechanism for the electroweak symmetry breaking can naturally be understood in the framework of unparticle physics. In the latter part of this paper, we consider the unparticle as a hidden sector of supersymmetry breaking, and give some phenomenological consequences of this scenario. The result shows that there is a possibility for the unparticle as a hidden sector in SUSY breaking sector, and can provide a solution to the μ problem in SUSY models.
