Constraining Composite Higgs Models with direct searches — Christoph Niehoff, •Peter Stangl, and David Straub — Excellence Cluster Universe, TUM, Garching, Germany

Composite Higgs Models offer a unified effective description of models with new strong interactions or extra dimensions and are thus of high phenomenological interest. They can naturally account for a light Higgs Boson compatible with LHC data and at the same time are able to give a solution to the hierarchy problem without invoking supersymmetry. In this talk I will present result from a comprehensive analysis of composite Higgs models, where I will focus on constraints due to direct searches.
