Discovering Higgsless Electroweak Symmetry Breaking at LHC-8

We study the potential of the 8TeV LHC (LHC-8) to discover, during its 2012 run, a large class of Higgsless models whose low energy behavior is well represented by an SU(2)^2 x U(1) gauge structure. We analyze this class of models for two representative parameter choices and find that with a combine...

Sumario:We study the potential of the 8TeV LHC (LHC-8) to discover, during its 2012 run, a large class of Higgsless models whose low energy behavior is well represented by an SU(2)^2 x U(1) gauge structure. We analyze this class of models for two representative parameter choices and find that with a combined integrated luminosity of 40/fb at the LHC-8, the first new Kaluza-Klein mode of the W gauge boson can be discovered up to a mass of about 370-400GeV, when produced in association with a Z boson.
