Little Higgs Model Limits from LHC - Input for Snowmass 2013

Abstract: The status of several prominent model implementations of the Little Higgs paradigm, the Littlest Higgs with and without discrete T-parity as well as the Simplest Little Higgs are reviewed. For this, we are taking into account a fit of 21 electroweak precision observables from LEP, SLC, Tevatron together with the full 25/fb of Higgs data reported by ATLAS and CMS. For the Littlest Higgs with T-parity an outlook on corresponding direct searches at the 8 TeV LHC is included. We compare their competitiveness with the EW and Higgs data in terms of their exclusion potential. This contribution to the Snowmass procedure contains preliminary results of DESY 13-123 and serves as a guideline for which regions in parameter space of Little Higgs models are still compatible for the upcoming LHC runs and future experiments at the energy frontier. For this purpose we propose two different benchmark scenarios for the Littlest Higgs with T-parity, one with heavy mirror quarks, one with light ones.
