Description

In recent years, Vector Boson Scattering (VBS) has been extensively stu-
died to gain a deeper understanding of the fundamental interactions and the
gauge structure of the Standard Model (SM). Additionally, it serves as a po-
werful probe for new physics processes at multi-TeV energy scales, offering
a window into physics beyond the Standard Model.
Composite Higgs models instead provide a promising solution to the Natu-
ralness problem of the Higgs sector.
Our focus is on Composite Higgs models with a fermionic UV completion
that predict the existence of spin-1 resonances mixing with the W and Z
bosons. For some of these models, these electroweak spin-1 resonances can
be as light as 1.5 TeV consistent with all direct searches. We investigate in
which extent VBS con give further constraints for these models.
