Phenomenological aspects of supersymmetric composite Higgs models
arXiv:1405.4875 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.90.115026
Abstract
We study previously introduced models of pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson Higgs from linearly realized minimal coset SO(5)/SO(4) and matter in the fundamental in supersymmetric theories. Partial compositeness is at work for top and electroweak gauge fields. New states potentially relevant for LHC signatures are identified and we show how to reinterpret existing experimental results as exclusion bounds. The lightest colored particles, with a mass below the TeV, are fermionic and scalars top partners. We outline a viable mechanism originating masses of other Standard Model quarks: they result from the generation of dimension five operators in a non minimal flavor violating context. We study the impact of such operators on flavor processes and we show how experimental bounds are satisfied.
