Higgs assisted Q-balls from pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons

Abstract Motivated by recent constructions of TeV-scale strongly-coupled dynamics, either associated with the Higgs sector itself as in pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson (pNGB) Higgs models or in theories of asymmetric dark matter, we show that stable solitonic Q-balls can be formed from light pion-like...
