Extending global fits of 4D Composite Higgs Models with partially composite leptons

We perform the first convergent Bayesian global fits of 4D Composite Higgs Models with partially-composite third generation quarks and leptons based on the minimal SO(5) → SO(4) symmetry breaking pattern. We consider two models with the τ lepton and its associated neutrino in different representations of SO(5). Fitting each model with a wide array of experimental constraints allows us to analyse the Bayesian evidence and currently-observed fine-tuning of each model by calculating the Kullback-Leibler divergence between their respective priors and posteriors. Notably both models are found to be capable of satisfying all constraints simultaneously at the 3σ level at scales of < 5 TeV. From a Bayesian viewpoint of naturalness the model with leptons in the 14 and 10 representations is preferred over those in the 5 representation due to its lower fine-tuning. Finally, we consider the experimental signatures for the preferred parameters in these models, including lepton partner decay signatures and gluon-fusion produced Higgs signal strengths, and discuss their potential phenomenology at future high-luminosity LHC runs.
