FCC Physics Opportunities: Future Circular Collider Conceptual Design Report Volume 1

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Jan Steggemann, Elena Graverini, Jean-Michel Sallese, Thomas Rizzo, Luca Rossi, Rui Ning Wang, Fabio Avino, Xavier Buffat, Tatiana Pieloni

We review the physics opportunities of the Future Circular Collider, covering its e(+)e(-), pp, ep and heavy ion programmes. We describe the measurement capabilities of each FCC component, addressing the study of electroweak, Higgs and strong interactions, ...

Strong Higgs interactions at a linear collider

Riccardo Rattazzi, Duccio Pappadopulo, Roberto Contino, Andrea Thamm

We study the impact of Higgs precision measurements at a high-energy and high-luminosity linear electron positron collider, such as CLIC or the ILC, on the parameter space of a strongly interacting Higgs boson. Some combination of anomalous couplings are a ...

Heavy vector triplets: bridging theory and data

Andrea Wulzer, Duccio Pappadopulo, Riccardo Torre, Andrea Thamm

We introduce a model-independent strategy to study narrow resonances which we apply to a heavy vector triplet of the Standard Model (SM) group for illustration. The method is based on a simplified phenomenological Lagrangian which reproduces a large class ...

Effective Lagrangian Perspectives on Electroweak Symmetry Breaking

Andrea Thamm

We use an effective Lagrangian approach to address the question of the dynamics of electroweak symmetry breaking in the Standard Model (SM) and its relation to the hierarchy problem. Composite Higgs models provide a solution by describing the recently disc ...

Lifting degeneracies in Higgs couplings using single top production in association with a Higgs boson

Andrea Thamm, Ennio Salvioni

Current Higgs data show an ambiguity in the value of the Yukawa couplings to quarks and leptons. Not so much because of still large uncertainties in the measurements but as the result of several almost degenerate minima in the coupling profile likelihood f ...

On the effective operators for Dark Matter annihilations

Alexander Monin, Andrea De Simone, Andrea Thamm

We consider effective operators describing Dark Matter (DM) interactions with Standard Model fermions. In the non-relativistic limit of the DM field, the operators can be organized according to their mass dimension and their velocity behaviour, i.e. whethe ...

A minimally tuned composite Higgs model from an extra dimension

Duccio Pappadopulo, Riccardo Torre, Andrea Thamm

We construct and study the 5D realization of a composite Higgs model with minimal tuning. The Higgs is a (pseudo-)Goldstone boson from the spontaneous breaking of a global SO(5) symmetry to an SO(4) subgroup. The peculiarity of our construction lies in the ...
