abstract
Exotic decays of top partners in new bosons are the norm in realistic models of a composite Higgs. We focus on the custodial charge-$5/3$ partner, which normally decays exclusively into $tW^+$. The new channels include a colour-sextet, $X_{5/3} \to \bar{b} \pi_6$, as well as singly and doubly charged scalars, $X_{5/3} \to t \phi^+$, $b \phi^{++}$. We use existing same-sign lepton searches to show that the new final states are constrained at the same level as the standard one. At the same time, exotic final states also offer opportunities for improvement: examples include a hard photon in $X_{5/3}\rightarrow t\phi^+\rightarrow tW^+\gamma$ decays, and top-rich channels which arise in several exotic $X_{5/3}$ decays.

Electroweak phase transition with composite Higgs models: calculability, gravitational waves and collider searches
A strong first-order electroweak phase transition is impossible in SO(6)/SO(5) composite Higgs models under the minimal Higgs potential hypothesis, and requires undetermined UV operator contributions, as shown in a 6+...

Exotic decays of top partners: mind the search gap
A top-partner search gap exists: for T -> t a with a -> gg, current LHC bounds drop from about 1.3 TeV to roughly 400-550 GeV.

Dark matter in composite Higgs models with a scotogenic EFT
In the SU(6)/Sp(6) composite Higgs model with a scotogenic Z2, three of four neutral pseudo-Goldstone dark matter candidates can reproduce the observed relic density, while the SU(2)L triplet candidate fails; spin-1 r...
