Technicolor and the First Muon Collider

Abstract

The motivations for studying dynamical scenarios of electroweak and flavor symmetry breaking are reviewed and the latest ideas, especially topcolor-assisted technicolor, are summarized. Technicolor's observable low-energy signatures are discussed. The superb energy resolution of the First Muon Collider may make it possible to resolve the extraordinarily narrow technihadrons that occur in such models--$\ddot{I}{€}_T^0$, $\ddot{I}{}_T^0$, $\ddot{I}{‰}_T$--and produce them at very large rates compared to other colliders.
