Emergent axion and Higgs boson from strong dynamics
Florian Goertz, Andrea Incrocci
We propose a unified model that simultaneously addresses the hierarchy problem and the strong CP problem by considering the most simple fundamental composite Higgs setup and showin…
Gauge Coupling Unification in Gauge-Higgs GUT: Theory and Phenomenology
Andrei Angelescu, Andreas Bally, Florian Goertz +1
We present a concise survey of the running of gauge couplings in realistic models of gauge-Higgs grand unification in a slice of AdS space and investigate their potential unifi…
Characterizing LHC-Resonances in extended HEFT: information on the nature of extended scalar sectors
Giorgio Arcadi, David Cabo-Almeida, Florian Goertz +1
In theories with extended scalar sectors the lightest new scalar degree of freedom might be accessible at colliders. Going beyond simplified models, such a theory can be described…
The goofy-symmetric Standard Model and the Hierarchy Problem
Thede de Boer, Florian Goertz, Andrea Incrocci
A new class of so-called "goofy" symmetries has been shown to lead to renormalization-group stable relations between parameters in two-Higgs-Doublet Models, not known before. In th…
Restoring Naturalness via Conjugate Fermions
Andrei Angelescu, Andreas Bally, Florian Goertz +1
We propose a novel mechanism for cancelling the leading order contribution to the potential in composite Higgs scenarios. The mechanism relies on the splitting of a real representa…
Unveiling New Phases of the Standard Model Higgs Potential
Florian Goertz, Ãlvaro Pastor-Gutiérrez
We present evidence for new phases of the Standard Model Higgs potential. We study the Standard Model physical trajectory accounting for the Higgs curvature mass with the mass-depe…
