TL;DR
This paper proposes that the Higgs vacuum has a small-scale structure which could explain the huge difference between theoretical and observed values of the cosmological constant, with testable predictions at colliders.
Contribution
It introduces a novel small-scale structure of the Higgs vacuum to address the cosmological constant problem and derives testable modifications to the Standard Model.
Findings
Modified Standard Model predictions for collider experiments
Potential explanation for the cosmological constant discrepancy
Testable effects of Higgs vacuum structure
Abstract
It is proposed that the Higgs vacuum possesses a small-scale structure that can explain the large discrepancy between the predicted electroweak vacuum energy density and the observed cosmological constant. An effective Lagrangian description is employed to obtain modifications to the Standard Model predictions that can be tested at collider experiments.
