No Resonance, No New Physics? Naturalness? New Physics may appear solely as a continuum

- If the new strong dynamics responsible for furnishing a composite Higgs is near a quantum critical point, the composite spectrum may effectively consist of a continuum with a mass gap.

- In this scenario, poles corresponding to the composite top partner (and vector meson) excitations have merged into a branch cut in the scattering amplitude.

@2nd order QPT, @ critical point, all masses vanish & the theory is scale invariant, characterized by the scaling dimensions of the field,

What is the nature of electroweak phase transition?

Does the underlying theory also have a QPT?

If so, is it more interesting than mean-field theory?

Can we hide top partners at the LHC?

- depending on profile of the spectral density- calculate top partner production for a given

- quadratic divergence cancellation: the discrete sum rule turnsinto a continuous integral over the top partners

-combined to give gaugino mediation (solving flavor problem): hiding gaugino decaying into multiple leptons and missing ET

Summary

The presence of a continuum can drastically change the LHC

phenomenology of new BSM resonances

new signals:

we provided a model where the strong dynamics of confinement

furnishes a continuum and bound states which mix together

- enhancements to off-shell behavior of SM DOFs from mixing with

continuum

- top partners and New Physics may be hidden in the tail!
