Phenomenologically Viable Dynamical Electro–Weak Symmetry Breaking

The lack of deviations from the Standard Model at the current level of experimental precision can be explained systematically in suitable models of dynamical electro–weak symmetry breaking. The key ingredient is dynamics which produces a scalar unitarity partner for the Goldstone–Bosons and which leads to a decoupling of effects beyond the Standard Model. A phenomenologically successful left–right symmetric model is presented from this point of view.
