Minimal Flavor Constraints for Technicolor
We analyze the constraints on the the vacuum polarization of the standard
model gauge bosons from a minimal set of flavor observables valid for a general
class of models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking. We will show that
the constraints have a strong impact on the self-coupling and masses of the
lightest spin-one resonances. Our analysis is applicable to any four and higher
dimensional extension of the standard model reducing to models of dynamical
electroweak symmetry breaking.Comment: 26 pages, we have added appendix C and some references and corrected

Composite Higgs to two Photons and Gluons
We introduce a simple framework to estimate the composite Higgs boson
coupling to two-photon in Technicolor extensions of the standard model. The
same framework allows us to predict the composite Higgs to two-gluon process.
We compare the decay rates with the standard model ones and show that the
corrections are typically of order one. We suggest, therefore, that the
two-photon decay process can be efficiently used to disentangle a light
composite Higgs from the standard model one. We also show that the Tevatron
results for the gluon-gluon fusion production of the Higgs either exclude the
techniquarks to carry color charges to the 95% confidence level, if the
composite Higgs is light, or that the latter must be heavier than around 200
GeV.Comment: RevTex 7 pages, 6 figure

Pressure to order in -theory at weak coupling
We calculate the pressure of massless -theory to order
at weak coupling. The contributions to the pressure arise from the hard
momentum scale of order and the soft momentum scale of order .
Effective field theory methods and dimensional reduction are used to separate
the contributions from the two momentum scales: The hard contribution can be
calculated as a power series in using naive perturbation theory with bare
propagators. The soft contribution can be calculated using an effective theory
in three dimensions, whose coefficients are power series in . This
contribution is a power series in starting at order . The calculation
of the hard part to order involves a complicated four-loop sum-integral
that was recently calculated by Gynther, Laine, Schr\"oder, Torrero, and
Vuorinen. The calculation of the soft part requires calculating the mass
parameter in the effective theory to order and the evaluation of
five-loop vacuum diagrams in three dimensions. This gives the free energy
correct up to order . The coefficients of the effective theory satisfy a
set of renormalization group equations that can be used to sum up leading and
subleading logarithms of . We use the solutions to these equations to
obtain a result for the free energy which is correct to order .
Finally, we investigate the convergence of the perturbative series.Comment: 29 pages and 12 figs. New version: we have pushed the calculations to
g^8*log(g) using the renormalization group to sum up log(g) from higher
orders. Published in JHE
Towards Open Information Management in Health Care
The utilization of information technology as tool in health care is increasing. The main benefits stem from the fact that information in electronic form can be transferred to different locations rapidly and from the possibility to automate certain information management tasks. The current technological approach for this automation relies on structured, formally coded representation of information. We discuss the limitations of the current technological approach and present a viewpoint, grounded on previous research and the authors’ own experiences, on how to progress. We present that a bottleneck in the automation of the management of constantly evolving clinical information is caused by the fact that the current technological approach requires the formal coding of information to be static in nature. This inherently hinders the expandability of the information case space to be managed. We present a new paradigm entitled open information management targeting unlimited case spaces. We also present a conceptual example from clinical medicine demonstrating open information management principles and mechanisms
