Higgsplosion: Solving the hierarchy problem via rapid decays of heavy states into multiple Higgs bosons

We introduce and discuss two inter-related mechanisms operative in the electroweak sector of the Standard Model at high energies. Higgsplosion, the first mechanism, occurs at some critical energy in the 25 to 103 TeV range, and leads to an exponentially growing decay rate of highly energetic particl...
