Abstract

One of the simplest extensions of the Standard Model (SM) consists in adding a scalar singlet. This second Higgs boson is able to solve several fundamental problems of SM. Additional scalar particles arise naturally in composite Higgs scenarios in which some confining “strong sector” beyond the SM drives the electroweak symmetry breaking. The underlying strongly coupled gauge theory may be similar to QCD and could be modeled holographically. We construct a bottom-up holographic model for description of the spectrum of composite Higgs particles. The model is based on the holographic Soft Wall model and the Wilson confinement criterion. The constructed model predicts the existence of a second Higgs boson with a mass of about 515 GeV.
