Description
The experimental results of the first run of the Large Hadron Collider
lead to the discovery of the Higgs boson but have not confirmed the
dominant theoretical paradigm about the naturalness of the
electro-weak scale, according to which the Higgs boson should have
been accompanied by supersymmetric particles or by some other new
physics able of protecting the Higgs boson mass from quadratically
divergent quantum corrections. I present new non conventional ideas
about the origin of mass scales in nature and in particular of the
electro-weak scale.
