The Hierarchy Problem is arguably the most important guiding
principle concerning the extension to high-energy scales of the
Standard Model (SM) of Fundamental Interactions. Every scenario for
addressing this issue unavoidably predicts new physics in the TeV
energy range, which is currently being probed directly by the LHC
experimental program. Among the possible solutions to the Hierarchy
Problem, the scenario of a composite Higgs boson is a very simple
idea and a rather plausible picture has emerged over the years by
combining the following ingredients: First, the Higgs must be a
(pseudo-) Nambu-Goldstone boson, rather than a generic hadron of
the new strong sector. Second, through the so-called 'partial
compositeness', SM particles mix with strong sector resonances with
suitable quantum numbers, so that they become a linear combination
of elementary and composite degrees of freedom. Recently, general
descriptions of the Composite Higgs Scenario were developed which
successfully capture the relevant features of this theoretical
framework in a largely model-independent way. The present book
provides a concise and illustrative introduction to the subject for
a broad audience of graduate students and non-specialist
researchers in the fields of particle, nuclear and gravitational
physics.
