= Composite Higgs models
{wiki=Composite_Higgs_models}
Composite Higgs models are theoretical frameworks in particle physics that suggest that the Higgs boson, responsible for giving mass to elementary particles via the Higgs mechanism, is not an elementary particle but rather a composite particle made up of more fundamental constituents. This idea arises from motivations to address various issues in the Standard Model of particle physics, particularly the hierarchy problem, which deals with the vast difference between the gravitational scale and the electroweak scale.
