Holographic Construction of Technicolor Theory
We construct a dual description of technicolor theory based on the D4/D8 brane configuration. A strongly-coupled technicolor theory is identified as the effective theory on D-branes, and from the gauge/gravity correspondence, we explore the weakly-coupled holographic description of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking. It is found from the D-brane probe action that the masses of W and Z boso...
متن کاملComposite Scalars at LEP: Constraining Technicolor Theories
LEP I and LEP II data can be used to constrain technicolor models with light, neutral pseudo-NambuGoldstone bosons, P. We use published limits on branching ratios and cross sections for final states with photons, large missing energy, jet pairs, or bb pairs to constrain the anomalous PZZ, PZγ, and Pγγ couplings. From these results, we derive bounds on the size of the technicolor gauge group and...
متن کاملThe S-parameter in Holographic Technicolor Models
We study the S parameter, considering especially its sign, in models of electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) in extra dimensions, with fermions localized near the UV brane. Such models are conjectured to be dual to 4D strong dynamics triggering EWSB. The motivation for such a study is that a negative value of S can significantly ameliorate the constraints from electroweak precision data on thes...
متن کاملHolographic Estimate of Oblique Corrections for Technicolor
Abstract We study the oblique corrections to the electroweak interaction in the holographic model of technicolor theories. The oblique S parameter is expressed in terms of a solution to the equations of motion for the AdS bulk gauge fields. By analyzing the solution, we establish a rigorous proof that the S parameter is positive and is reduced by walking. We also present the precise numerical v...
متن کاملBoson Decays to Composite Scalars: Constraining Technicolor Theories
LEP I data can be used to constrain technicolor models with light, neutral pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons, P. We use published limits on branching ratios and cross sections for the final states γγγ, γ 6E, γ jet jet, 6E jet jet, and γγ jet jet to constrain the anomalous PZZ and PZγ couplings. From these results, we derive bounds on the size of the technicolor gauge group and the number of technif...
