Description

I compute the difference of vector and axial vector current correlators in the weak coupling phase of (lattice-regulated) SU(3) gauge theory with two flavors of symmetric-representation dynamical fermions. For the chosen parameters of the simulation, this model exhibits walking and for all practical purposes it is conformal. Consequences for the phenomenology of beyond Standard Model physics are discussed.
