The Revolutions are Coming! 

Mankind’s greatest achievements have come from the curiosity to know how the world works. 

Everything we see and even things we do not see are combinations of a handful of elementary 

particles. We live in a particle universe. Explorations of the innermost structure of nature is 

leading to unprecedented heights in scientific discovery, invention and technological advancement. 

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN is 

the most ambitious scientific experiment in the world 

and is setting the agenda for particle physics for, at 

least, the next decade. It is accelerating two beams of 

protons in opposite directions around a 27km underground 

tunnel, until they reach almost the speed of 

light. The particles are then collided creating energies 

higher than ever before. 

Being a particle physics centre, we are overjoyed to 

report that on March 30, 2010 experimental colleagues 

at CERN in Geneva have achieved the first 7 TeV proton–proton 

collisions at the Large Hadron Collider 

(LHC). The first collisions took place at 1 p.m. local 

time and are the most energetic ever achieved in a particle 

accelerator. This day has marked the beginning of the LHC physics programme. LHC is already 

testing several new possible fundamental laws of the universe while is constantly scrutinizing 

the Standard Model of particle physics. 

We aim to exploit experimental results, supercomputers and our theoretical expertise to make 

the next big leap in particle physics: 

Uncovering the Origin of Mass of all elementary particles. 

We will also contribute in other equally relevant quests: understanding the phase diagram of 

strongly interacting theories and the origin of bright and dark matter in the universe. 

Our current understanding of nature fails to explain the origin of dark matter or why matter 

dominates over antimatter, i.e. why there is something rather than nothing in the universe. The 

origin of mass problem is intimately connected to these fundamental questions, making it a central 

problem in physics. 

To achieve our overarching goals we will : 

• Unite the most relevant strategic areas of research in particle physics phenomenology 

from model building to flavor physics and strong interactions. 

• Gather experts with complementary abilities and provide a competitive and vibrant 

scientific environment. 

• Use the modern theoretical means for describing and understanding experimental results 

as well as making sensible phenomenological predictions. 

• Construct original and scientifically sound extensions of the Standard Model and test 

them against experimental results. 

CP³-Black book 1

• Develop novel tools of direct relevance to the LHC physics and more generally to understand 

complex dynamics. 

• Use our relations with leading international centres of excellence and universities possessing 

complementary skills and scientific knowledge. 

Sustainability is the key for success, and this is 

why we are providing several permanent positions 

in particle physics. This demonstrates 

strong commitment to the field in Denmark. 

Several young researchers and graduate students 

are having and will have the opportunity 

of receiving a highly qualified training while 

being themselves fundamental component of 

the centre's scientific life. 

The convergence of its near to perfect timing, outstanding team, and unprecedented support at 

the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) means that CP³-Origins is acutely primed to raise 

Danish research to the very top of the international field of particle physics. 

The Need to go Beyond 

The energy scale at which the LHC experiment operates is determined by the need to complete 

the standard model (SM) of particle interactions and, in particular, to understand the origin of 

mass of the elementary particles. Together with classical general relativity the SM constitutes 

one of the most successful models of nature. However, we shall argue that experimental results 

and theoretical arguments call for a more fundamental description of nature. The SM can be 

viewed as a low-energy effective theory valid up to an energy scale Λ. Above this scale new 

interactions, symmetries, extra dimensional worlds or any other extension could emerge. At 

sufficiently low energies with respect to this scale one expresses the existence of new physics via 

effective operators. The success of the SM is due to the fact that most of the corrections to its 

physical observables depend only logarithmically on this scale. In fact, in the SM there exists 

only one operator which acquires corrections quadratic in Λ. This is the squared mass operator 

of the Higgs boson. Since Λ is expected to be the highest possible scale, which in four dimensions 

corresponds to the Planck scale, it is hard to explain naturally why the mass of the Higgs 

is of the order of the electroweak scale. This is the hierarchy problem. Due to the occurrence of 

quadratic corrections in the cutoff scale Λ this SM sector is most sensitive to the existence of 

new physics. Many questions need an answer even if the Higgs is found at the LHC: Is it composite? 

How many Higgs fields are there in nature? Are there hidden sectors? 

Nature’s Riddles 

Why do we expect that there is new physics awaiting to be discovered? Of course, we still have 

to observe the Higgs boson. However, even with the Higgs discovered, the SM has both conceptual 

problems and phenomenological shortcomings. In fact, theoretical arguments indicate that 

the SM is not the ultimate description of nature: 

Hierarchy Problem: The Higgs sector is highly fine-tuned. We have no natural separation between 

the Planck and the electroweak scale. 

2 CP³-Black book

. 

Strong CP Problem: There is no natural explanation for the smallness of the electric dipole moment 

of the neutron within the SM. This problem is also known as the strong CP problem. 

Origin of Patterns: The SM can fit, but cannot explain the number of matter generations and their 

mass texture. 

Unification of the Forces: Why do we have so many different interactions? It is appealing to imagine 

that the SM forces could unify into a single Grand Unified Theory (GUT). We could imagine 

that at very high energy scales gravity also becomes part of a unified description of nature. 

There is no doubt that the SM is incomplete since we cannot even account for a number of basic 

observations: 

Neutrino Physics: Only recently has it been possible to have some definite answers about properties 

of neutrinos. We now know that they have a tiny mass, which can be naturally accommodated 

in extensions of the SM, featuring for example a “see-saw” mechanism. We do not yet 

know if the neutrinos are of Dirac or Majorana nature. 

Origin of Bright and Dark Mass: Leptons, quarks and the gauge bosons mediating the weak interactions 

possess a rest mass. Within the SM this mass can be accounted for by the Higgs mechanism, 

which constitutes the electroweak symmetry breaking sector of the SM. However, the associated 

Higgs particle has not yet been discovered. Besides, the SM cannot account for the observed 

large fraction of “dark” mass of the universe. What is interesting is that in the universe 

the dark matter is about five times more abundant than the known baryonic matter, i.e. “bright” 

matter. We do not know why the ratio of dark to bright matter is of order unity. 


Matter-Antimatter Asymmetry: From our everyday experience we know that there is very little 

“bright” antimatter in the universe. The SM fails to predict the observed excess of matter. These 

arguments imply that the SM must be extended or amended to answer the questions raised 

above. Several extensions have appeared in the literature but two stand out in the quest for a 

more fundamental theory at the Fermi scale: Technicolor and Supersymmetry. We aim at using 

and developing analytic and numerical (lattice) approaches to study the nonperturbative properties 

of these theories. Using the knowledge of the gauge dynamics acquired, we will also 

make predictions for collider physics and cosmology.

Organization 

The Centre for Particle Physics Phenomenology – CP³-Origins has been established by the Danish 

National Research Foundation (DNRF) and 

opened on the 1st of September 2009 at the University 

of Southern Denmark in Odense. CP³-Origins is initially 

funded by the DNRF for a duration of five years 

and will then be evaluated for a possible extension of 

five more years. 

The centre is also supported from other sources, including 

the Danish Agency for Science, Technology 

and Innovation, the Villum Kann Rasmussen Foundation, 

the European Commission, Nordforsk, and the 

Danish Centre for Super Computing. 

We will employ a chess-like strategy where every individual piece (postdocs, student and staffmember) 

plays a fundamental role while functioning together towards the successful common 

goal. The key to becoming a better player in chess is to never get stuck on one level of play. We 

continually add to our game by learning and trying new strategies. 

The centre is located at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU), and has long-term visitors 

affiliated with other institutions worldwide. The following are the members that have been at 

the centre from 2010 till now.

Short and Long Term Visitors 

The centre is quickly becoming a reference point for the Nordic particle physics phenomenology 

community thanks to an ultra-active visitor program. We had a very large number of well 

known scientists presenting their research topics and the latest scientific results within the CP³- 

Lecture program or at the weekly CP³ journal clubs. Graduate students from Nordic and nonnordic 

countries come to the centre for either working directly with the staff members or to acquire 

relevant information useful for their thesis work. 

The video-recorded lectures are advertised broadly in the Nordic countries and streamed on 

our website in order to provide a service to the community.

Overview of the Centre 

Since its opening, on the 1st of September 2009, the new Centre of Excellence in Particle Physics 

Phenomenology CP³-Origins has been pursuing very challenging scientific goals while keeping 

in mind the important aspiration to assume the leading role in the Nordic countries in one of 

the most important areas of research worldwide. We have initiated several concrete initiatives to 

form a new generation of particle physicists excelling internationally. We keep building fundamental 

strategic research infrastructure to serve nationally while being able to lead internationally. 

Jeppe R. Andersen and Chris Kouvaris have both joined CP³-Origins as assistant professors in 

the fall 2010. 

Jeppe R. Andersen got his Ph.D. in physics at the University of Durham in UK, 

which is one of the strongest groups in particle physics phenomenology worldwide. 

He has held postdoctoral positions at DAMTP and Cavendish Laboratory 

in Cambridge and currently comes from a position as Fellow from the CERN 

Theory Group. His main research interests are: perturbative corrections to scattering 

processes at particle colliders, improving the perturbative description of 

particle collisions to help achieve the full scientific potential of the LHC (and 

other colliders) in elucidating possible new physics. He has several top cited 

papers and his work is expected to play a relevant role in the design of several analyses and 

interpretation of measurements at the Large Hadron Collider experiment at CERN. 

Chris Kouvaris got his Ph.D. at the renowned MIT in US. He has then held a 

position as excellence team member of the EXT European Commission actions, 

now known as the ERC. He has also won the Marie Curie Fellowship of the 

European commission. He comes from a position as research associate at the 

Université Libre de Bruxelles. His main research interests are Beyond Standard 

Model Physics, Technicolor, Dark Matter, Neutron Stars, High density QCD, and 

spin asymmetries. He has been productive with high impact research papers in 

all fields of research he has worked on. In particular, he has made substantial 

contributions while graduate student at MIT on matter in extreme conditions and in Denmark 

on Dark Matter from Technicolor theories and their impact on astrophysical objects. 

The centre has filled another assistant professor position in Lattice Field Theory for Beyond 

Standard Model physics accepted by Claudio Pica. 

Claudio Pica graduated from the worldly renowned Scuola Normale di Pisa in Italy. He has 

held research positions at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in US and then 

in the high energy group at Edinburgh in UK. Despite his young age, Pica has 

been extremely productive with several top cited papers and he is a leading expert 

in lattice field theory for models of Dynamical Electroweak Symmetry 

breaking. His research interests besides Beyond Standard Model physics revolve 

also around QCD in extreme conditions and mechanisms for confinement using 

advanced numerical simulations running on the most advanced computational 

platforms in the world. Pica has joined the centre in February 2010. 


. 

Professor Paul Hoyer from Helsinki University has been visiting CP³-Origins from January to 

May 2010. He is a leader in perturbative aspects of Quantum Chromodynamic and has held 

research positions at CERN, Oxford, Stony Brook and the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory in US. 

He has been assistant professor at NORDITA (the Nordic centre for advanced 

theoretical studies) and director of NORDITA two times for a total of about 10 

years. He has made important contributions in high energy physics and in particular 

in the field of Quantum Chromo Dynamics/hadronic physics. Hoyer has 

been the chair of the department of High Energy Physics at Helsinki, of the research 

institute for Theoretical Physics of Helsinki, and of the Finnish Physical 

Society. He has also been part of the High Energy Physics Prize committee of the 

European Physical Society. 

Professor Stanley J. Brodsky from Stanford University has been visiting CP³-Origins from March 

through June 2010 as the new H.C. Andersen Academy Professor. He is one of the most productive 

living theoretical physicists. He has over 500 papers in theoretical physics with nearly 

30,000 citations. He has made fundamental contributions in atomic (precision quantum electrodynamics), 

nuclear, hadron as well as high energy physics and has many famous and several 

renowned papers (500+ citations). He is the recipient of the 2007 J. J. Sakurai 

Prize for Theoretical Particle Physics. The Sakurai prize is awarded annually by 

the American Physical Society to recognize and encourage research in particle 

physics and is one of the highest honors given in the field of high energy physics. 

Brodsky’s work has deepened our knowledge of the nature of quarks and 

gluons within protons and neutrons, and his analyses of how these subatomic 

particles behave have improved our fundamental understanding of matter. An 

important set of principles which bears his name (developed at SLAC with colleague 

Glennys Farrar) are the Brodsky-Farrar Counting Rules, which help researchers 

predict how subatomic particles behave during high-energy collisions. A fundamental 

basis for the counting rules within the theory of quarks and gluons—quantum chromodynamics 

(QCD)—was established by Brodsky and his former student at SLAC, G. Peter Lepage. Brodsky 

has also developed other physical principles underlying QCD, novel experimental tests of fundamental 

theory, and new methods of theoretical analysis. Professor Brodsky directed SLAC’s 

Theory Group from 1996 to 2002. Brodsky has also received the U.S. Distinguished Scientist 

Award from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. Brodsky is the chair of the American 

Physical Society topical group on hadron physics. 

Oleg Antipin and Marco Nardecchia joined the centre as postdocs in the fall 2010 and are experts 

of beyond standard model physics, strong dynamics, supersymmetry, extra-dimensional 

models and technicolor. Oleg and Marco were selected among a large pull of over 160 strong 

researchers interested in joining the centre’s research activities. 

We have also hired outstanding PhD students: Phongpichit 

Channuie, Eugenio Del Nobile, Tuomas Hapola, Jakob Jark Jørgensen 

and Ulrik Ishøj Søndergaard. We are very proud that 

they have chosen high energy physics as their primary field of 

research education. Eugenio and Tuomas are working on important 

signals for collider phenomenology and on the understanding 

of the dark matter 

properties and genesis. 


Ulrik adds: There were many reasons that I felt compelled to apply for this position at CP³. I have 

through the studies at master level been exposed to some very exciting physics. The position allows me to 

get involved in research at the high-energy frontier and this is particularly interesting in a time where the 

Large Hadron Collider operates at energies higher than ever. 

I intent in the Ph.D. project to focus on orthogonal technicolor, gauge theories with spinorial representations, 

technicolor theories under extreme conditions and their equations of state. 

Jakob and Phongpichit will focus their Ph.D. studies on “Strong dynamics for cosmology” dividing 

their efforts between two subprojects on respectively, composite dark matter and dynamical 

origin of inflation. 

The Nobel laureate Professor Gerard ‘t Hooft visited the centre in November 2010. Professor 

Gerard ‘t Hooft is a theoretical physicist at Utrecht University, the Netherlands. He shared the 

1999 Nobel Prize in Physics with Martinus J. G. Veltman for elucidating the quantum structure 

of electroweak interactions. He was awarded the Lorentz Medal in 1986 and the Spinozapremie 

in 1995. He is widely regarded as one of the most original, scientifically influential 

and among the brightest living physicists. He delivered outstanding 

graduate and public lectures. His life and research achievements are a source 

of inspiration for young students and researchers. 

Centre members have already produced, since the 

opening of the centre, over 93 research preprints, of 

which 7 written from the beginning of 2011 to now, 

57 in 2010 and 29 from June to December 2009. Several 

of the recent work of the centre’s members, published before the 

actual start of the centre, became top cited according to the SPIRES 

high energy database. This is the work dedicated to the understanding 

of the phase diagram of strongly coupled theories and its applications 

for models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking and dark matter. Some of the 

work has been published in prestigious physics journals such as Physical Review Letters. Others 

have been reported by science news magazines such as the magazine “Wired”. 

The CP³-Origins Lecture series, mini-courses, as well as the weekly journal club provide the 

“food for our brain”. The invited lecturers are internationally known scientists from Europe, the 

US and Asia. 

The lectures and mini-courses are available on our webpage insuring transparence, allowing 

the possible centre members traveling the possibility to watch and listen to the lecturers, and 

serves as a courtesy to the entire scientific community. 


. 

We have in mind the smaller research groups which want to remain updated with 

respect to the latest developments in particle physics. Finally in time, it will be a 

precious historical record. We have now opened our “CP³-Tube” webpage. 

We have introduced the Fermi Visiting Professor Program @ CP³-Origins for a 

visit of 2-6 months sponsored by the centre for outstanding scientists wishing to 

join the centre’s activities in the area of particle physics, astroparticle and cosmology. We have 

now selected our first Fermi Visiting Professor who will be Prof. Joseph Schechter from Syracuse 

University in US. He is an outstanding scientist with several top cited papers in high energy 

physics. 

Since the formal inauguration of the centre which occurred on the 24th of November, we have 

already organized nine meetings. The pictures, slides and several of the lectures can be watched 

on our website CP³-Tube. 

We have launched a large number of extremely successful and 

novel outreach activities meant to propagate the centre’s activities 

to students and teachers in high schools, to researchers in other 

fields and to the general public. 

We initiated the first CP³-Black Book which is summarizing the 

highlights of the centre. It has been sent worldwide to allow for 

maximum transparence towards the public and the scientific 

community. 

CP³-Origins together with the University of Southern Denmark, 

CERN, Fermilab, the US Department of Energy, National Science 

Foundation, as well as several other worldwide organizations 

proudly presented the science revealed behind the Sony Pictures 

blockbuster Angels and Demons. 

We launched in February 2010 a novel initiative, the CP³-Genius Program, meant to allow the 

brightest young minds at the bachelor and high school level to join the research activities at our 

centre. The CP³-Genius Program concept is our original idea and is now being used as a model 

elsewhere. We have already seven outstanding bachelor students on this program in less than 

one year. 

We have also launched the CP³-Kids 

program for elementary school kids 

where we introduce the basic elements 

of physics starting with the solar system. 

We keep improving the layout of our 

webpage for an easy access to information 

about our group, research and 

outreach possibilities. 


The research of the centre members has been recognized already on several occasions. Thomas 

A. Ryttov, a former Ph.D. student of F. Sannino, has just been awarded the prestigious “Sapere 

Aude: Ung Eliteforsker” prize from the Danish National Science Foundation. 

The prize is given each year to excellent researchers at the postdoctoral level. 

The prize includes a grant enabling him to realize extra ambitious goals and 

provides a clear sign of recognition. For a researcher of his age, Thomas has 

already had a significant impact in the scientific community with several wellknown 

papers. On the webpage http://www.eliteforsk.dk one can soon find 

additional information about Thomas, his direction of research and a statement 

from the Danish National Science Foundation committee providing the reasons 

why he is given this award. Thomas will join Harvard Univ as postdoc in the fall 2011. 

Two CP³-Genius bachelor students won the Oticon Scholarship for bachelors. in 2010. They said. 

Helene: I am very grateful that my interests in physics has been rewarded with this Oticon scholarship, 

even though I am only in the beginning of second year of my education. I have no plans of going abroad 

or other big expenses, but now I have the money to do so if I get the opportunity, and I can use more time 

on my education and the physics I do here at CP³. 

Martin: I am very happy that my enthusiasm for physics at this early stage of my studies is recognized 

and that I am getting supported by the Oticon scholarship. Even though I am not yet going to travel 

abroad or have other big single expenses, the money will surely come in handy in my everyday and the

Roadmap and New Strong Forces of Nature 

The centre is designed to cover, during its lifetime, strategic areas of research orbiting around 

the fundamental problem of the “Origin of Mass” which is the “trait d’union” connecting them: 

• Electroweak Symmetry Breaking/Model Building 

• Dynamical Origin of Dark Matter and Inflation 

• Strong Interactions 

In the following we review the research we have been involved in during the reporting period. 

We plan to further extend our line or research below for the coming reporting year according to 

the original work-plan and milestones. 

Two staff members per research area will be the primary investigators according to their expertise. 

We expect to involve two postdocs per area of research. There is sufficient flexibility within 

this research structure to allow for the young researchers to pick the topic(s) which best suits 

their interests. Within each research project introduced below we present the methodological 

approach we will employ to achieve our goals. 

It is important to mention that shortly after the inaugural collisions, a number of new important 

experimental results were published independently by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations setting 

important constraints on extensions of the Standard Model. A relevant result is that certain 

theoretically constrained versions of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model are showing 

tension with the experimental results. Interestingly our recent (of Dynamical Electroweak 

Symmetry Breaking type) and novel extensions (via magnetic duals) of the Standard Model are 

still top runners for discovery at CERN. We are looking forward to future experimental releases 

of data from the CERN experiments! 

Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD), the theory of “strong interactions”, constitutes one of the 

pillars of the Standard Model of particle interactions. It is responsible for the very existence of 

ordinary matter while leading to an extremely rich and interesting phenomenology ranging 

from the physics of the nucleus to the dynamics and composition of compact astrophysical objects 

such as neutron stars. 

Several experiments worldwide, existing and planned, such as LHC (CERN Geneva), DAΦNE 

(LNF Frascati), FAIR (GSI Darmstadt), TJNAF (Newport News), BES-III/BEPCII (Beijing), 

MAMI (Mainz), ELSA (Bonn), Tevatron (Fermilab, USA), BaBar/PEP-II (SLAC USA), Belle/ 

KEK-B(Tsukuba) and CLEO (Cornell), are designed to investigate its many phenomenological 

aspects. QCD is responsible for the dynamical origin of mass of protons and neutrons, constituting 

about four percent of the Universe, i.e. the visible part. 

Another fundamental property of QCD is that it drives the spontaneous breaking of the electroweak 

symmetry, even in the absence of the Higgs boson, with a contribution to the weak 

gauge boson masses of the order of thirty MeV. The QCD-driven Higgs mechanism led Weinberg 

and Susskind to propose that the Higgs mechanism could emerge from a new strongly interacting 

theory, called Technicolor. The techni-hadronic scale should then be approximately 

one thousand times bigger than the QCD one, in order to accommodate for the experimental 

value of the weak gauge bosons masses. 


. 

Strong dynamics can play a completely different role than the one originally envisioned by 

Weinberg and Susskind for technicolor extensions of the Standard Model. In fact, we have recently 

put forward an extremely original extension of the Standard Model according to which 

the entire Standard Model can be re-written in highly natural strongly coupled fermionic variables 

with the fundamental prediction that the number of matter generations cannot be less 

than three. This is the first time that it has been possible to connect the solution of the hierarchy 

problem of the Standard Model with a deeper understanding of why we observe three generations 

of fundamental matter. 

The main mission of the LHC is to uncover the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking, 

and the origin of mass. We expect a wealth of data from the LHC to guide our investigations 

during the period of this grant. The new dynamics can also provide natural candidates of dark 

matter not present in the standard model. Present and future, earth based, balloons or satellite 

experiments such as XENON (Gran Sasso), (super)CDMS (Soudan-Mine), CoGent (Soudan- 

Mine), PAMELA, Fermi Gamma-ray (NASA), DAMA (Gran Sasso), LHC, etc, will be able to 

provide salient information on different dark matter candidates. 

Another novel idea we are pursuing is the possibility that the rapid expansion of the universe is 

driven by a dynamical mechanism. 

Strongly-interacting theories can therefore account for the origin of bright and dark matter in 

the universe, for the breaking of the electroweak symmetry and even drive the expansion of the 

universe soon after the big bang. Therefore at least 25% of the universe can be explained using 

four dimensional and therefore highly natural strongly interacting theories! This ambitious 

theoretical and phenomenological programme requires a coherent theoretical effort in order to 

solve the strongly coupled regime of gauge theories, of which QCD constitutes a time-honored 

example. The proposed research programme aims to exploit the synergy between supercomputers 

and our theoretical expertise to: 

• Solve strong dynamics; 

• Uncover the origin of bright and dark mass in the universe; 

• Link theory and experiments in the area of nonperturbative phenomenology beyond the Standard 

Model (BSM). 

We have a distinguished history in: 

• Actively developing novel analytic and numeric tools to solve strong dynamics. 

• Making successful predictions for the dynamics and spectrum of QCD. 

• Constructing natural models in which both, the Higgs and dark matter are composite. 

• Uncovering numerically novel non-QCD dynamics with immediate impact in particle physics " 

and cosmology. 

• Using our knowledge to make predictions for signals of new physics at colliders and in particle 

cosmology. 

We have unique expertise, original ideas, demonstrated world-class leadership and unmatched 

training capabilities which are highly recognized nationally and internationally. 


Our overarching goals are to solve strong dynamics, use this information to uncover the origin 

of bright and dark mass in the universe, and to link nonperturbative BSM models and experiments 

in particle physics and cosmology by providing relevant predictions for past and future 

experiments in these fields. 

A number of possible generalizations of the SM have been conceived. Such extensions are introduced 

on the basis of one or more guiding principles or prejudices. We will introduce below 

only the SM extensions on which we have made fundamental contributions and that can be 

tested either via first principle lattice simulations or directly at collider experiments. 

Dynamical Electroweak Symmetry Breaking / Minimal Technicolor 

One of the intriguing options for explaining some of the puzzling features of the SM of particle 

physics is to assume that a new force acts at the Fermi scale. This new force, commonly called 

Technicolor – the high energy equivalent of ordinary superconductivity – leads to a natural explanation 

of the origin of the Fermi scale per se as well as of the origin of mass of the intermediate 

vector boson responsible, for example, for the slow burning of our Sun. These theories are 

useful for constructing models able to generate the Fermi scale dynamically while passing the 

LEP precision measurements. Our extensions, termed Minimal Walking Technicolor, are currently 

being studied for potential discovery at the LHC. These theories require new strong dynamics 

very different from the strong nuclear force QCD. 

Ideal walking 

We investigated the effects of four-fermion interactions on the phase diagram of strongly interacting 

theories for any representation as function of the number of colors and flavors. We 

showed that the conformal window, for any representation, shrinks with respect to the case in 

which the four-fermion interactions are neglected. The anomalous dimension of the mass increases 

beyond the unity value at the lower boundary of the new conformal window. We discovered 

that when the extended technicolor sector, responsible for giving masses to the standard 

model fermions, is sufficiently 

strongly coupled the technicolor theory, 

in isolation, must have an infrared fixed 

point for the full model to be phenomenologically 

viable. Using the new phase 

diagram we showed that the simplest 

one family and minimal walking technicolor 

models are the archetypes of models 

of dynamical electroweak symmetry 

breaking. Our predictions can be verified 

via first principle lattice simulations. We 

dubbed the new extension of the Standard 

Model, ideal walking ones.

Conformal and magnetic S-parameter 

We use the perturbative expression for the S parameter in the perturbative region of the conformal 

window to establish its dependence on the explicit introduction of fermion masses. We 

demonstrate that the relative ordering with which one sends to zero either the fermion mass or 

the external momentum leads to drastically different limiting values of S. Our results apply to 

any fermion matter representation and can be used as benchmark for the determination of certain 

relevant properties of the conformal window of any generic vector like gauge theory with 

fermionic matter. We finally suggest the existence of a universal lower bound on the opportunely 

normalized S parameter and explore its theoretical and phenomenological implications. 

Our exact results constitute an ideal framework to correctly interpret the lattice studies of the 

conformal window of strongly interacting theories. We have also the effects of higher order interactions 

which support the aforementioned conjectures.

Composite Higgs to two Photons and Gluons 

We introduced a simple framework to estimate the composite Higgs boson coupling to twophoton 

in Technicolor extensions of the standard model. The same framework allows us to predict 

the composite Higgs to two-gluon process. We compare the decay rates with the standard 

model ones and show that the corrections are typically of order one. We suggest, therefore, that 

the two-photon decay process can be efficiently used to disentangle a light composite Higgs 

from the standard model one. We also show that the Tevatron results for the gluon-gluon fusion 

production of the Higgs either exclude the techniquarks to carry color charges to the 95% confidence 

level, if the composite Higgs is light, or that the latter must be heavier than around 200 

GeV.

Dark Matter and Composite Inflation 

Mixed dark matter from technicolor 

We studied natural composite cold dark 

matter candidates which are pseudo 

Nambu-Goldstone bosons (pNGB) in 

models of dynamical electroweak symmetry 

breaking. Some of these can have 

a significant thermal relic abundance, 

while others must be mainly asymmetric 

dark matter. By considering the thermal 

abundance alone we find a lower bound 

of MW on the pNGB mass when the 

(composite) Higgs is heavier than 115 

GeV. Being pNGBs, the dark matter candidates 

are in general light enough to be 

produced at the LHC.

Constraining Asymmetric Dark Matter through observations of compact stars 

We put constraints on asymmetric dark matter candidates with spin-dependent interactions 

based on the simple existence of white dwarfs and neutron stars in globular clusters. For a wide 

range of the parameters (WIMP mass and WIMP-nucleon cross section), WIMPs can be trapped 

in progenitors in large numbers and once the original star collapses to a white dwarf or a neu- 


. 

tron star, these WIMPs might self-gravitate and eventually collapse forming a mini-black hole 

that eventually destroys the star. We impose constraints competitive to direct dark matter search 

experiments, for WIMPs with masses down to the TeV scale.

Dark Matter Effective Theory 

We organized the effective (self)interaction terms for complex scalar dark matter candidates 

which are either an isosinglet, isodoublet or an isotriplet with respect to the weak interactions. 

The classification has been performed ordering the operators in inverse powers of the dark matter 

cutoff scale. We assume Lorentz invariance, color and charge neutrality. We also introduce 

potentially interesting dark matter induced flavor-changing operators. Our general framework 

allows for model independent investigations of dark matter properties.

Minimal Composite Inflation 

We investigated models in which the inflation emerges as a composite field of a four dimensional, 

strongly interacting and nonsupersymmetric gauge theory featuring purely fermionic 

matter. We showed that it is possible to obtain successful inflation via non-minimal coupling to 

gravity, and that the underlying dynamics is preferred to be near conformal. We discover that 

the compositeness scale of inflation is of the order of the grand unified energy scale.

theories, using a variety of analytical 

and numerical methods. 

Mesonic spectroscopy of Minimal 

Walking Technicolor 

We investigated the structure and the 

novel emerging features of the mesonic 

non-singlet spectrum of the Minimal Walking Technicolor (MWT) theory. Precision measurements 

in the nonsinglet pseudoscalar and vector channels are compared to the expectations for 

an IR-conformal field theory and a QCD-like theory. Our results favor a scenario in which MWT 


is (almost) conformal in the infrared, while spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking seems less 

plausible.

The infrared dynamics of Minimal Walking Technicolor 

We studied the gauge sector of Minimal Walking Technicolor, which is an SU(2) gauge theory 

with nf=2 flavors of Wilson fermions in the adjoint representation. Numerical simulations are 

performed on lattices Nt x Ns^3, with Ns ranging from 8 to 16 and Nt=2Ns, at fixed \beta=2.25, 

and varying the fermion bare mass m0, so that our numerical results cover the full range of 

fermion masses from the quenched region to the chiral limit. We present results for the string 

tension and the glueball spectrum. A comparison of mesonic and gluonic observables leads to 

the conclusion that the infrared dynamics is given by an SU(2) pure Yang-Mills theory with a 

typical energy scale for the spectrum sliding to zero with the fermion mass. The typical mesonic 

mass scale is proportional to, and much larger than this gluonic scale. Our findings are compatible 

with a scenario in which the massless theory is conformal in the infrared. An analysis of 

the scaling of the string tension with the fermion mass towards the massless limit allows us to 

extract the chiral condensate anomalous dimension \gamma*, which is found to be 

\gamma*=0.22+-0.06.

Thermodynamics of Quasi Conformal 

Theories From Gauge/Gravity 

Duality 

We use gauge/gravity duality to study 

the thermodynamics of a generic almost 

conformal theory, specified by its beta 

function. Three different phases are identified, 

a high temperature phase of massless 

partons, an intermediate quasiconformal 

phase and a low temperature 

confining phase. The limit of a theory 

with infrared fixed point, in which the 

coupling does not run to infinity, is also 

studied. The transitions between the 

phases are of first order or continuous, depending on the parameters of the beta function. The 

results presented follow from gauge/gravity duality; no specific boundary theory is assumed, 

only its beta function.

decaying constant and the critical temperature above which chiral symmetry is restored. We

Nonperturbative Results for Yang-Mills Theories 

Some non perturbative aspects of the pure SU(3) Yang-Mills theory are investigated assuming a 

specific form of the beta function, based on a recent modification by Ryttov and Sannino of the 

known one for supersymmetric gauge theories. The characteristic feature is a pole at a particular 

value of the coupling constant, g. First it is noted, using dimensional analysis, that physical 

quantities behave smoothly as one travels from one side of the pole to the other. Then it is argued 

that the form of the integrated beta function g(m), where m is the mass scale, determines 

the mass gap of the theory. Assuming 

the usual QCD value one finds it to be 

1.67 GeV, which is in surprisingly good 

agreement with a quenched lattice calculation. 

A similar calculation is made for 

the supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory 

where the corresponding beta function is 

considered to be exact.

Hot Conformal Gauge Theories 

We computed the nonzero temperature free energy up to the order g6 ln(1/g) in the coupling 

constant for vector like SU(N) gauge theories featuring matter transforming according to different 

representations of the underlying gauge group. The number of matter fields, i.e. flavors, is 

arranged in such a way that the theory develops a perturbative stable infrared fixed point at 

zero temperature. 

Due to large distance conformality, we trade the coupling constant with its fixed point value 

and define a reduced free energy which 

depends only on the number of flavors, 

colors and matter representation. We 

showed that the reduced free energy 

changes sign, at the second, fifth and 

sixth order in the coupling, when decreasing 

the number of flavors from the 

upper end of the conformal window. If 

the change in sign is interpreted as signal 

of an instability of the system then 

we infer a critical number of flavors. 

Surprisingly this number, if computed to 

the order g2, agrees with previous predictions 

for the lower boundary of the 

conformal window for nonsupersymmetric 

gauge theories. The higher order 


. 

results tend to predict a higher number of critical flavors. These are universal properties, i.e. 

they are independent on the specific matter representation.

Beta Function and Anomalous Dimensions 

We demonstrated that it is possible to determine the coefficients of an all-order beta function 

linear in the anomalous dimensions using as data the two-loop coefficients together with the 

first one of the anomalous dimensions which are universal. The beta function allows to determine 

the anomalous dimension of the fermion masses at the infrared fixed point, and the resulting 

values compare well with the lattice determinations.

ultraviolet fixed point for gauge theories at large number of flavors.

Nonperturbative QCD Coupling and its beta-function from Light-Front Holography 

The light-front holographic mapping of classical gravity in AdS space, modified by a positivesign 

dilaton background, leads to a nonperturbative effective coupling αsAdS(Q2). It agrees 

with hadron physics data extracted from different observables, such as the effective charge de- 


fined by the Bjorken sum rule, as well as with the predictions of models with built-in confinement 

and lattice simulations. It also displays a transition from perturbative to nonperturbative 

conformal regimes at a momentum scale ∼ 1 GeV. The resulting β function appears to capture 

the essential characteristics of the full β function of QCD, thus giving further support to the application 

of the gauge/gravity duality to the confining dynamics of strongly coupled QCD. 

Commensurate scale relations relate observables to each other without scheme or scale ambiguity. 

In this paper we extrapolate these relations to the nonperturbative domain, thus extending 

the range of predictions based on αsAdS(Q2).

Dual Worlds and Natural Standard Model 

Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is the theory describing one of the fundamental forces of 

Nature, i.e., the one responsible for holding together the quarks inside the proton. For over four 

decades, scientists have tried to understand its intricate dynamics using analytical methods as 

well as first principle computer simulations. Despite the many successes a complete understanding

the dynamics of novel theories which may play a fundamental role in explaining the 

origin of bright and dark matter in the universe. Gauge dualities have immense possibilities. It 

will allow, for example to a deeper understanding of the structure and dynamics of the Standard 

Model of particle interactions 

QCD and Higher Representation Duals 

We uncovered novel solutions of the 't Hooft anomaly matching conditions for QCD and other 

strongly interacting theories. Interestingly in the perturbative regime the new gauge theories, if 

interpreted as a possible duals, predict the critical number of flavors above which the original 

theory, in the nonperturbative regime, develops an infrared stable fixed point. Remarkably this 

value is identical to the maximum bound predicted in the nonpertubative regime via the allorders 

conjectured beta function for nonsupersymmetric gauge theories.

Natural Standard Model as Magnetic Gauge Theory and the why of at least 3 families 

of fundamental particles! 

We have recently suggested that the Standard Model can be viewed as the magnetic dual of a 

gauge theory featuring only fermionic matter content. We show this by first introducing a Pati- 

Salam like extension of the Standard Model and then relating it to a possible dual electric theory 

featuring only fermionic matter. The absence of scalars in the electric theory indicates that the 

associated magnetic theory is free from quadratic divergences. Our novel solution to the Standard 

Model hierarchy problem leads also to a new insight on the mystery of the observed number 

of fundamental fermion generations by naturally explaining why it has to be at least three. 

The Standard Model is Natural as Magnetic Gauge Theory.

Multiple Jets at the LHC 

We presented a flexible Monte Carlo implementation 

of the perturbative framework 

of High Energy Jets, describing 

multi-jet events at hadron colliders. The 

description includes a resummation 

which ensures leading logarithmic accuracy 

for large invariant mass between 

jets, and is matched to tree-level accuracy 

for multiplicities up to 4 jets. The 

resummation includes all-order hard 

corrections, which become important for 

increasing centre-of-mass energy of the 


hadronic collision. We discuss observables relevant for confronting the perturbative framework 

with 7 TeV data from the LHC, and the impact of the perturbative corrections on several dijet 

and trijet observables which are relevant in the search for new physics.

Near Future 

We are determined to continue understanding strong dynamics and investigating its large potential 

impact on the construction of sensible extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics, 

dark matter genesis and characterization, as well as the origin of the rapid expansion of the 

universe via models of composite inflation. Understanding strong dynamics is also crucial for a 

better understanding of the large amount of data coming from the Large Hadron collider. We 

will be using analytical and High Performance Computing to achieve our goals. 

Progress will be measured by the high quality of the scientific output of the team in the form of 

peer-reviewed research papers, proceedings and invited presentations at international conferences. 

We will constantly keep us updated with respect to recent experimental results and theoretical 

developments and will adjust our research plan to maximize our scientific impact. 

Beyond Particle Physics 

The geometry group at SDU provides the mathematical soul of the centre and is involved in 

providing a strong training in mathematics and complementary expertise for the high energy 

component. SM extensions have a significant mathematical content, particularly in the form of 

differential geometry, Lie group theory and topology. In particular the areas of research they 

have been involved in are: Harmonic maps and uniton factorizations, Timelike constant mean 

curvature surfaces, Harmonic morphisms from three-dimensional Lie Groups. 

Multi-moments maps 

We introduce a notion of moment map adapted to actions of Lie groups that preserve a closed 

three-form. We show existence of our multi-moment maps in many circumstances, including 

mild topological assumptions on the underlying manifold. Such maps are also shown to exist 

for all groups whose second and third Lie algebra Betti numbers are zero. We show that these 

form a special class of solvable Lie groups and provide a structural characterisation. We provide 

many examples of multi-moment maps for different geometries and use them to describe manifolds 

with holonomy contained in (G_2) preserved by a two-torus symmetry in terms of trisymplectic 

geometry of four-manifolds.

The Geometric Cauchy Problem 

The geometric Cauchy problem for a class of surfaces in a pseudo-Riemannian manifold of dimension 

3 is to find the surface which contains a given curve with a prescribed tangent bundle 


. 

along the curve. We consider this problem for constant negative Gauss curvature surfaces 

(pseudospherical surfaces) in Euclidean 3-space, and for timelike constant non-zero mean curvature 

(CMC) surfaces in the Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space. We prove that there is a unique solution 

if the prescribed curve is non-characteristic, and for characteristic initial curves (asymptotic 

curves for pseudospherical surfaces and null curves for timelike CMC) it is necessary and sufficient 

for similar data to be prescribed along an additional characteristic curve that intersects the 

first. The proofs also give a means of constructing all solutions using loop group techniques. 

The method used is the infinite dimensional d'Alembert type representation for surfaces associated 

with Lorentzian harmonic maps (1-1 wave maps) into symmetric spaces, developed since 

the 1990's. Explicit formulae for the potentials in terms of the prescribed data are given, and 

some applications are considered.

Recruitment and Meetings for 2010 

Recruitment follows the original schedule with a few adjustments meant to further strengthen 

the centre’s international impact. The adopted recruitment strategy ensures steady progress and 

optimal research output. 

We have filled three tenure-track assistant professors positions with outstanding scientists of the 

caliber of Jeppe R. Andersen, Chris Kouvaris and Claudio Pica. Two excellent postdocs started 

in the fall in 2010 and two more have been selected and will join the group in 2011. Since the 

start of the centre, we have already hired five PhD students and have opened two more positions 

to be filled by summer 2011. Profs Stanley J. Brodsky and Paul Hoyer have been visiting in 

the spring 2010. 

In 2010 we organized several meetings: the conference Origin of Mass 2010 May 3-7, the 

StrongBSM Kickoff meeting August 16-19, Follow Up Meeting with the Danish National Research 

Foundation on October 14, the Mini-Workshop: Discovering Technicolor October 25-27, 

the 3rd Odense Winter School on Geometry and Theoretical Physics 2010 November 1-5, the ‘t 

Hooft Nobel Lecture on November the 2nd, and the N.K. Nielsen Fest on November 5th.

Community 

As a bright scientific beacon, the CP 3 -Origins centre at the University of Southern Denmark is 

both enriching and serving the research community. It puts Denmark at the forefront of research 

in this field and creates the potential for achieving substantial global recognition. 

Being in the frontline, our approach is one of transparency, accountability and a real commitment 

to engaging citizens. Value to the community can be measured qualitatively in terms of 

the centre becoming a household name in Odense and in the Region, and by generating greater 

interest in the public arena, and quantitatively in its effect on the numbers of young people 

choosing to study physics at higher levels. 

We have launched a large number of extremely successful and novel outreach activities that will 

harness the energy generated by the fascination of young and old alike for particle physics, to 

further fuel our work and to give something tangible and of quality in return. 

Angels and Demons 

It is a fact that the high schools programs worldwide are scientifically 

utterly outdated! Science in general and our understanding 

of the fundamental laws of the universe, in particular, 

have greatly advanced, yet young students are not exposed to 

the marvels of our scientific findings. As part of our effort to 

promote a deeper understanding of nature, high energy physicists 

from CP³-Origins visited several high schools during “The 

Angels and Demons High School Tour” from March to May, 

2010. 

High school students at Slagelse Gymnasium, Alssundgymnasiet 

Sønderborg, Nakskov Gymnasium, and Fredericia Gymnasium 

heard a talk on the physics behind the Sony blockbuster 

movie before it was shown to them. Subsequently, the students 

were able to get more information on all science subjects taught at the Faculty of Science, which 

includes physics. 

An extended version of the same talk was presented at the Natural Science Society of Funen in 

April (Naturvidenskabeligt selskab på Fyn). 

The presentation was initially established as part 

of a collaboration between CP³-Origins, the University 

of Southern Denmark, CERN, Fermilab, 

the US Department of Energy, the National Science 

Foundation, as well as several other 

worldwide organizations. 


CP³-Kids 

A fun definition of a physicist 

is: “A physicist is like a 

3 years old kid who keeps 

asking: Why does it work 

like that?” 

In an effort to bring physics 

closer to kids, we prepared 

a 15 min presentation, 

aimed at 4 – 8 years old 

kids, introducing the basics 

of the solar system starting 

from its birth. Fun pictures 

and movies of the universe, 

earth, sun, moon and space 

shuttles were part of the 

presentation. In September 

2010, the presentation was 

successfully tested at 

Giersings Realskole in front of a preschool class. 

CP³-Genius Program 

We launched in February 2010 a novel initiative meant to allow the brightest young minds at 

the bachelor and high school level to join the research activities at our centre. 

Here is the way it works: 

For Bachelor Students: If you are enrolled as a bachelor student in physics at the University of 

Southern Denmark, and you think you are not challenged enough, you have top grades and are 

burning for understanding the fundamental laws of the universe, you are perfect for the genius 

program. 

You will: 

• Keep following your standard bachelor curriculum in physics, and at the same time you will 

be able to join the advanced research programs at our centre. 

• Be part of a mini unit consisting of a graduate student (master and/or PhD student), an experienced 

researcher (typically a postdoc), and a staff member. 

• Be assigned a research topic on which you will have to report regularly and possibly do research 

work on it. 

• Be able to acquire the required skills ranging from the use of supercomputers, advanced theoretical 

physics concepts and mathematics in order to address the challenging problems you 

will encounter. 


. 

For High School Students: High school students with excellent grades in mathematics and physics 

can be hosted for one or two days at our centre. Here the student will be assigned to a mini unit 

like the one above and will be able to learn about some of the basic topics in cosmology, high 

energy physics and more generally learning about the fundamental laws of the universe and 

why they must be amended to explain yet the many open questions in cosmology and particle 

physics. 

For High School Teachers: We will be happy to have 

high school teachers and their classes visiting our 

centre and get up-to-date information about the 

fundamental laws of the universe. They will learn 

about the latest news from the Large Hadron Collider 

experiment at the European Centre of Nuclear 

Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switzerland. We will 

let them know also about the latest news on dark 

matter and energy obtained via cosmological observations. 

We will introduce in lay terms new 

theories and ideas which might help solve some of 

the fundamental puzzles posed by nature. 

The program has been a great success and the centre 

counts already seven CP³-genius bachelor students. 

We hosted the first students from the Tornbjerg 

Gymnasium on the 12th of February 2010. 


CP³ gets 

Wired and goes and on goes dk4on 

Several times the centre, and centre members appeared in the news or contributed with articles 

in magazines specialized for scientific outreach. Some examples are: 

•Francesco Sannino was interviewed on the Danish channel TV2 Fyn about his 

Elite Researcher Prize in January 2010. 

•The article “Stoffets hemmelighed skal afsløres i Odense” appeared on 

videnskab.dk in September 2010. 

• The contribution “Universets lyse og mørke 

side” by Francesco Sannino was published 

on the Aktuel Naturvidenskab magazine; 

• Chris Kouvaris was interviewed by the 

“Wired Science” magazine about his paper 

on constraints of dark matter imposed by 

neutron star observations. 

• The Danish TV channel dk4 interviewed 

Francesco Sannino. His interview appeared 

in March 2011 as a series of interviews dedicated 

to Elite Researcher Prize winners. 

See Appendix F for a complete list of outreach 

activities. 

All the activities of the Centre can also be followed on Facebook
