The bulk Higgs in the deformed RS model

Electroweak precision tests allow for lighter Kaluza–Klein (KK) Higgs modes in the deformed Randall–Sundrum (RS) model than in models with custodial symmetry. The first KK mode of the Higgs (h1) in such a model could have a mass as low as 900 GeV. In this paper, we study the production of h1 and its...
