Constraining Models With Strong Top-Quark Dynamics

We discuss a simplified model of Top Color Assisted Technicolor Model (TC2). In this model, the generation of the top-quark mass is separated from the rest of EWSB (that gives the W and Z their mass). Instead of an elementary Higgs, here we have technicolor dynamics and a composite top-Higgs that do the job of mass generation. After briefly presenting the details of our simplified picture of TC2 dynamics, we will test the validity of this model with experimental results from the LHC, particularly concentrating on the discovery of the 126 GeV Higgs boson and the reported strong exclusion region for the SM Higgs in a wide range of mass. We will find that the original minimal version of TC2 is quite highly disfavored based on the results from CERN.
