Location:  Theory Room         

Speaker:   Thomas Gregoire (Carleton U)

Title:     A Twin Higgs model with spontaneous Z_2 breaking

Abstract: Twin Higgs models try to address the hierarchy problem by introducing 'partners' that are neutral under the Standard Model gauge groups. They do so by relying on a Z_2 symmetry which needs to be broken in order to obtain the correct pattern of electroweak symmetry breaking. In this talk I will present a model where this breaking is spontaneous and examine the consequences for the naturalness of the model.
