Colour sextet baryons in composite Higgs models

Manuel Kunkel

Composite Higgs models with underlying fermionic descriptions predict a rich spectrum beyond the Standard Model. Besides the colour triplet fermionic resonances that act as top par…

The recasting bound atlas on pair production of vector-like quarks

Thomas Flacke, Manuel Kunkel

We present a comprehensive recasting study of pair production of vector-like quarks. We consider decays of vector-like quarks into third generation quarks and Standard Model bosons…

Phenomenology of electroweak spin-1 resonances

R. Caliri, J. Hadlik, M. Kunkel +2

Composite Higgs models with a fermionic UV completion predict the existence of various bound states. We investigate models containing SU(2)SU(2) as part of the unbrok…

Composite top partners in exotic colour representations

Giacomo Cacciapaglia, Rosy Caliri, Aldo Deandrea +5

Composite Higgs models with partial compositeness generically predict coloured fermionic resonances associated with the strong dynamics responsible for electroweak symmetry breakin…

Hunting and identifying coloured resonances in four top events with machine learning

Thomas Flacke, Jeong Han Kim, Manuel Kunkel +2

We study prospects to search for pair or singly produced colour octet or colour sextet scalars which decay into two top quarks at the LHC. We focus on the same-sign lepton final st…

Reinterpretation and preservation of data and analyses in HEP

Jon Butterworth, Sabine Kraml, Harrison Prosper +145

Data from particle physics experiments are unique and are often the result of a very large investment of resources. Given the potential scientific impact of these data, which goes…

Coloured spin-1 states in composite Higgs models

Giacomo Cacciapaglia, Aldo Deandrea, Manuel Kunkel +1

Strong dynamics for composite Higgs models predict spin-1 resonances which are expected to be in the same mass range as the usually considered top-partners. We study here QCD-colou…

Uncovering doubly charged scalars with dominant three-body decays using machine learning

Thomas Flacke, Jeong Han Kim, Manuel Kunkel +4

We propose a deep learning-based search strategy for pair production of doubly charged scalars undergoing three-body decays to in the same-sign lepton plus multi-jet…

Report of the Topical Group on Physics Beyond the Standard Model at Energy Frontier for Snowmass 2021

Tulika Bose, Antonio Boveia, Caterina Doglioni +318

This is the Snowmass2021 Energy Frontier (EF) Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) report. It combines the EF topical group reports of EF08 (Model-specific explorations), EF09 (More gen…

TF08 Snowmass Report: BSM Model Building

Patrick J. Fox, Graham D. Kribs, Hitoshi Murayama +53

We summarize the state of Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) model building in particle physics for Snowmass 2021, focusing mainly on several whitepaper contributions to BSM model bui…

Exploring extended Higgs sectors via pair production at the LHC

G. Cacciapaglia, T. Flacke, M. Kunkel +2

Higgs sectors extended by electroweakly charged scalars can be explored by scalar pair production at the LHC. We consider a fermiophobic scenario, with decays into a pair of gauge…

LHC phenomenology of unusual top partners in composite Higgs models

Werner Porod

Composite Higgs models with a fermionic UV completion can contain additional colored states beside the usual top-partners. We focus here on a model which contains in addition SU(3)…

Phenomenological aspects of composite Higgs scenarios: exotic scalars and vector-like quarks

Avik Banerjee, Diogo Buarque Franzosi, Giacomo Cacciapaglia +8

Composite Higgs models usually contain additional pseudo Nambu Goldstone bosons and vector-like quarks. We discuss various aspects related to their LHC phenomenology and provide su…

Phenomenology of unusual top partners in composite Higgs models

Giacomo Cacciapaglia, Thomas Flacke, Manuel Kunkel +1

We consider a particular composite Higgs model which contains SU(3) color octet top partners besides the usually considered triplet representations. Moreover, color singlet top par…
