The cosmological constant and stability of the Higgs vacuum
arXiv:1512.02619 · doi:10.5506/APhysPolB.47.485
Abstract
We discuss the cosmological constant puzzle and possible connections to the (meta-)stability of the Higgs vacuum suggested by recent LHC results. A possible explanation involves new critical phenomena in the ultraviolet, close to the Planck scale.
