Understand
The dilaton, a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson appearing in spontaneous scale symmetry breaking at a TeV scale f, may be found in Higgs boson searches.
- The dilaton couples to standard model fermions and weak bosons with the same structure as the Higgs boson except for the overall strength.
- Additionally, the dilaton couples to a Higgs boson pair.
- The couplings of the dilaton to a gluon pair and a photon pair, appearing at loop level, are largely enhanced compared to the corresponding Higgs couplings.
