Describing viable technicolor scenarios

Abstract

We construct an effective lagrangian for new strong interactions at the LHC, including as a first step the two lightest triplets of spin-1 resonances. Our parametrization is general enough to allow for previously unstudied spectrum and couplings. Among available frameworks to describe the spin-1 sector, we rely on an extra-dimensional description. Our approach limits the number of parameters, yet is versatile enough to describe the phenomenology of a wide range of new scenarios of strong electroweak symmetry breaking.
