We propose a hybrid inflationary scenario based on eight-flavor hidden QCD with the hidden colored fermions being in part gauged under B−L gauge symmetry. This hidden QCD is almost scale-invariant, so-called walking, and predicts the light scalar meson (the walking dilaton) associated with the spontaneous scale breaking, which develops the Coleman-Weinberg (CW) type potential as the...

In this talk, I will discuss novel strategies to search for long-lived scalars at future lepton colliders in the context of the Type-II seesaw model. In the low-mass range, and for an appropriate choice of the triplet vev, these scalars can become long-lived, leading to displaced-vertex signatures. Depending on the proposed center-of-mass energy, we consider the pair production of these...

Cosmic strings arise from the spontaneous breaking of a $U(1)$ symmetry, which can be either global or local, leading to distinct classes of string solutions. Their energy-loss mechanisms are known to differ significantly, which results in qualitatively different spectra of particles emitted from the string networks. Semilocal strings arise when global and local symmetries are simultaneously...
