Linear model for the Goldstone Higgs - Experimental tests

arXiv:1605.07213

Abstract

In order to explore a possible dynamical nature for the Higgs field (such as its being a pseudo-Goldstone boson) we develop a renormalizable Lagrangian based on the minimal linear -model with the symmetry softly broken to , including gauge bosons and fermions. We then present the phenomenological implications and constraints from precision observables and the impact on present and future LHC data.
