Abstract: “We introduce novel extensions of the Standard Model featuring a supersymmetric technicolor sector (supertechnicolor). As the first minimal conformal supertechnicolor model we consider N = 4 Super Yang-Mills which breaks to N = 1 via the electroweak interactions. This is a well defined, economical and calculable extension of the SM involving the smallest number of fields. It constitutes an explicit example of a natural superconformal extension of the Standard Model featuring a well defined connection to string theory. It allows to interpolate, depending on how we break the underlying supersymmetry, between unparticle physics and Minimal Walking Technicolor. We consider also other N = 1 extensions of the Minimal Walking Technicolor model. The new models allow all the standard model matter fields to acquire a mass.”
