New theories for the Fermi scale

Understand

Electroweak interactions need three Nambu-Goldstone bosons to provide a mass to the W and the Z gauge bosons but they also need an ultra-violet moderator or new physics to unitarize the gauge boson scattering amplitudes.

• In this talk, I will present various recent models of physics at the Fermi scale: several deformations of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, Little Higgs models, holographic composite Higgs models, 5D Higgsless models.
