Technicolor at the Tevatron

arXiv:1104.0976 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.106.251803

Abstract

We propose that the 3.2 sigma excess at ~150 GeV in the dijet mass spectrum of W + jets reported by CDF is the technipion of low-scale technicolor. Its relatively large cross section is due to production of a narrow resonance, the technirho, which decays to W + . We discuss ways to enhance and strengthen the technicolor hypothesis and suggest companion searches at the Tevatron and LHC.
