Repurposing lattice QCD results for composite phenomenology

Abstract

A number of proposed extensions of the Standard Model include new strongly interacting dynamics, in the form of SU(N) gauge fields coupled to various numbers of fermions. Often, these extensions allow N = 3 as a plausible choice, or even require N = 3, such as in twin Higgs models, where the new dynamics is a "copy" of QCD. However, the fermion masses in such a sector are typically different from (often heavier than) the ones of real-world QCD, relative to the confinement scale. Many of the strong interaction masses and matrix elements for SU(3) at heavy fermion masses have already been computed on the lattice, typically as a byproduct of the approach to the physical point of real QCD. We provide a summary of these relevant results for the phenomenological community.
