Description

Direct searches for fermion and vector boson resonances, as well as indirect constraints from precision measurements are both important tools to test the predictions of composite Higgs models. A novel numerical technique allows us to take into account many direct and indirect constraints in a single framework. This talk present results from applying our method to a class of four-dimensional pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson Higgs models.
