Coloured Spin-1 States in Composite Higgs Models

Strong dynamics for composite Higgs models predict spin-1 resonances whichare expected to be in the same mass range as the usually consideredtop-partners. We study here QCD-coloured vector and axial-vector statesstemming from composite Higgs dynamics in several relevant models based on anunderlying gauge-fermion description. These states can come as triplet, sextetand octet representation. All models considered have a colour octet vectorstate in common which can be singly produced at hadron colliders as it mixeswith the gluon. We explore the rich and testable phenomenology of thesecoloured spin-1 states at the LHC and future colliders.
