Conformal Higgs, or techni-dilaton- composite Higgs near conformality

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

In contrast to the folklore that Technicolor (TC) is a "Higgsless theory", we shall discuss existence of a composite Higgs boson, Techni-Dilaton (TD), a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson of the scale invariance in the Scale-invariant/Walking/Conformal TC (SWC TC) which generates a large anomalous dimension γm≃1γ_m \simeq 1 in a wide region from the dynamical mass mm =O= {\cal O} (TeV) of the techni-fermion all the way up to the intrinsic scale ΛTCΛ_{\rm TC} of the SWC TC (analogue of ΛQCDΛ_{\rm QCD}), where ΛTCΛ_{\rm TC} is taken typically as the scale of the Extended TC scale ΛETCΛ_{\rm ETC}: ΛTC≃ΛETC∼103Λ_{\rm TC} \simeq Λ_{\rm ETC}\sim10^3 TeV (≫m) (\gg m). All the techni-hadrons have mass on the same order O(m){\cal O} (m), which in SWC TC is extremely smaller than the intrinsic scale ΛTC≃ΛETCΛ_{\rm TC} \simeq Λ_{\rm ETC} , in sharp contrast to QCD where both are of the same order. The mass of TD arises from the {\it non-perturbative scale anomaly} associated with the techni-fermion mass generation and is typically 500-600 GeV, even {\it smaller than other techni-hadrons} of the same order of O(m){\cal O} (m), in another contrast to QCD which is believed to have no scalar qˉq\bar q q bound state lighter than other hadrons. We discuss the TD mass in various methods, Gauged NJL model via ladder Schwinger-Dyson (SD) equation, straightforward calculations in the ladder SD/ Bethe-Salpeter equation, and the holographic approach including techni-gluon condensate. The TD may be discovered in LHC.
