Status of a minimal composite Higgs theory

Understand

We analyze three sets of gauge ensembles in our extended physics program of a particularly important BSM gauge theory with a fermion doublet in the two-index symmetric (sextet) representation of the SU(3) BSM color gauge group.

• Our investigations include chiral symmetry breaking $\rm{(\chi SB)}$ in the p-regime and $\epsilon$-regime, the mass of the composite ${\rm 0^{++}}$ scalar, resonance spectroscopy, new physics from gauge anomaly constraints, and the role of stable sextet BSM baryons with Electroweak interactions in dark matter searches.
• Important new goals include studies of the ${\rm 0^{++}}$ scalar entangled with Goldstone dynamics in the p-regime and the $\epsilon$-regime, the resonance spectrum with particular attention to emerging LHC signals, like recent hints for diphoton excess at 750 GeV or diboson anomalies in the 2 TeV range.
• All results reported here are preliminary before journal publication including some post-conference material for the discussion.
