Indications on the Mass of the Lightest Electroweak Baryon
  In general, an effective low-energy Lagrangian model of composite electroweak symmetry breaking contains soliton solutions that may be identified with technibaryons. We recall how the masses of such states may be related to the coefficients of fourth-order terms in the effective Lagrangian, and review the qualitative success of this approach for baryons in QCD. We then show how the current theoretical and phenomenological constraints on the corresponding fourth-order coefficients in the electroweak theory could be used to estimate qualitative lower and upper bounds on the lightest electroweak baryon mass. We also discuss how the sensitivity of the LHC experiments could enable these bounds to be improved.
