Description
The origin of electroweak symmetry breaking is one of the most important problems of
experimental high energy physics. The possibility that new strong interactions at the TeV scale
are responsible for electroweak symmetry breaking was considered in the early days of the
standard model, and called "technicolor." This talk introduces a new paradigm for strong
electroweak symmetry breaking involving conformal dynamics that addresses the very serious
problems faced by strong electroweak symmetry breaking. New experimental signatures
relevant for the LHC will be emphasized.
