SUMMARY:Half-Composite Higgs: a UV completion to the SM? - Alessandro Agug
 liaro (University of Florence)
DTSTART:20180608T150000Z

CONTACT:Francesco Coradeschi
DESCRIPTION:The paradigm of Composite Higgs (CH) identifies the latter wit
 h a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson emerging from a Chiral Symmetry Breaking 
 of a new "Hypercolor" confining gauge sector. The issue of generating coup
 lings of the CH to Standard Model (SM) fermions poses a hard challenge\, e
 specially in view of the flavour structure of the SM itself. In this talk\
 , I shall investigate a theoretically interesting - and hopefully viable -
  alternative to Partial-Compositeness scenarios: the re-introduction of an
  elementary scalar\, acting as a bridge between the elementary and composi
 te sectors\, and providing a (virtually) simple UV completion of the SM.
