This study explores gauge coupling evolution in a nonsupersymmetric model. Precision coupling unification occurs near 10^15 GeV, similar to supersymmetric theories, by resolving the hierarchy problem with Higgs compositeness.

Area of Science:

  • Particle Physics
  • High Energy Physics
  • Theoretical Physics

Background:

  • The Standard Model (SM) describes fundamental particles and forces but has limitations, including the hierarchy problem.
  • Higgs compositeness offers a potential solution to the hierarchy problem, suggesting the Higgs boson is not fundamental.
  • Nonsupersymmetric scenarios provide alternative frameworks for exploring physics beyond the Standard Model.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the evolution of Standard Model gauge couplings in a nonsupersymmetric scenario.
  • To explore how Higgs compositeness resolves the hierarchy problem.
  • To examine the implications of top quark mass and bottom quark precision tests for compositeness.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of the evolution of Standard Model gauge couplings.
