Résumé |
Higgsplosion is the mechanism that leads to exponentially growing decay rates of highly energetic particles
into states with very high numbers of relatively soft Higgs bosons. We argue that Higgsplosion regulates all
n-point functions, thereby embedding the Standard Model of particle physics and its extensions into an
asymptotically safe theory. There are no Landau poles and the Higgs self-coupling stays positive.
We also argue that the effects of Higgsplosion alter quantum corrections from very heavy states to the Higgs
boson mass. Above a certain energy, which is much smaller than their masses, these states would rapidly
decay into multiple Higgs bosons. The loop integrals contributing to the Higgs mass will be cut off not by the
masses of the heavy states, but by the characteristic loop momenta where their decay widths become
comparable to their masses. This suppresses the radiative corrections from the heavy states to the Higgs
boson mass, solving the Hierarchy problem. |
