TL;DR
The paper provides an overview of the top-BESS model, a Higgsless effective theory describing strong electroweak symmetry breaking with a new vector resonance interacting primarily with third-generation quarks.
Contribution
It introduces the top-BESS model, highlighting its unique coupling to third-generation quarks and detailing its formulation and phenomenology.
Findings
Top-BESS model describes strong electroweak symmetry breaking without a Higgs.
The vector resonance couples directly only to third-generation quarks.
Complete phenomenological analysis is provided in the referenced work.
Abstract
This is a brief outline of the top-BESS model and its properties. The top-BESS model is the higgsless effective description of the strong electroweak symmetry breaking with a single new SU(2)_L+R triplet vector resonance. In contrast with the universality of the fermion interactions of the BESS model, the top-BESS vector resonance couples directly to the third quark generation only. The complete formulation of the model along with its phenomenology can be found in arXiv:1107.0570.
