Inelastic channels in<i>WW</i>scattering
If the electroweak symmetry-breaking sector becomes strongly interacting at high energies, it can be probed through longitudinal W scattering. We present a model with many inelastic channels in the ${\mathit{W}}_{\mathit{L}}$${\mathit{W}}_{\mathit{L}}$ scattering process, corresponding to the production of heavy fermion pairs. These heavy fermions affect the elastic scattering of ${\mathit{W}}_{\mathit{L}}$'s by …
