Opening the Window for Technicolor
Deog Ki Hong, Stephen D. H. Hsu, Francesco Sannino
Recently a new class of technicolor models are proposed, using technifermions of symmetric second-rank tensor. In the models, one can make reasonable estimates of physical quantiti…
New Solutions to the Strong CP Problem
S. D. H. Hsu, F. Sannino
We exhibit a solution to the strong CP problem in which ultraviolet physics renders the QCD theta angle physically unobservable. Our models involve new strong interactions beyond Q…
Lightsheets, Branes and the Covariant Entropy Bound
Deog Ki Hong, Stephen D. H. Hsu
We investigate the geometry of lightsheets comprised of null geodesics near a brane. Null geodesics which begin parallel to a brane a distance d away are typically gravitationally…
Composite Higgs from Higher Representations
D. K. Hong, S. D. Hsu, F. Sannino
We investigate new models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking resulting from the condensation of fermions in higher representations of the technicolor group. These models li…
Gradient instability for w < -1
Stephen D. H. Hsu, Alejandro Jenkins, Mark B. Wise
We show that in single scalar field models of the dark energy with equations of state satisfying , the effective Lagrangian for fluctuations about the homogeneo…
Anthropic Distribution for Cosmological Constant and Primordial Density Perturbations
Michael L. Graesser, Stephen D. H. Hsu, Alejandro Jenkins +1
The anthropic principle has been proposed as an explanation for the observed value of the cosmological constant. Here we revisit this proposal by allowing for variation between uni…
