    Unitarity constraints on chiral perturbative amplitudes

    Full text link
    Low lying scalar resonances emerge as a necessary part to adjust chiral perturbation theory to experimental data once unitarity constraint is taken into consideration. I review recent progress made in this direction in a model independent approach. Also I briefly review studies on the odd physical properties of these low lying scalar resonances, including in the γγ→π+π−,π0π0\gamma\gamma\to\pi^+\pi^-, \pi^0\pi^0 processes.Comment: Talk given at: International Workshop on Effective Field Theories: from the pion to the upsilon, February 2-6 2009, Valencia, Spai

    Scalar resonance at 750 GeV as composite of heavy vector-like fermions

    Full text link
    We study a model of scalars which includes both the SM Higgs and a scalar singlet as composites of heavy vector-like fermions. The vector-like fermions are bounded by the super-strong four-fermion interactions. The scalar singlet decays to SM vector bosons through loop of heavy vector-like fermions. We show that the surprisingly large production cross section of di-photon events at 750 GeV resonance and the odd decay properties can all be explained. This model serves as a good model for both SM Higgs and a scalar resonance at 750 GeV.Comment: 12 pages, no figure, references updated, version for publicatio
