Resumo
Scalar composite boson masses have been computed in QCD and technicolor theories with the help of the homogeneous Bethe-Salpeter equation, resulting in a scalar mass that is twice the dynamically generated fermion or technifermion mass (m(dyn)). We show that in the case of walking (or quasiconformal) technicolor theories, where the mdyn behavior with the momenta may be quite different from the one predicted by the standard operator product expansion, this result is incomplete and we must consider the effect of the normalization condition of the Bethe-Salpeter equation to determine the scalar masses. We compute the composite Higgs boson mass for several groups with technifermions in the fundamental and higher dimensional representations and comment about the experimental constraints on these theories, which indicate that models based on walking theories with fermions in the fundamental representation may, within the limitations of our approach, have masses quite near the actual direct exclusion limit.
