DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Ameen Ismail (University of Chicago - Enrico Fermi I
 nstitute)\n\nI describe a new solution to the Higgs hierarchy problem base
 d on a dynamical vacuum selection mechanism in a landscape which scans the
  Higgs mass. The Higgs potential only admits a stable minimum when its mas
 s is less than a critical value\, cosmologically crunching away patches wi
 th a heavier Higgs. This critical value is set by the instability scale wh
 ere the Higgs quartic turns negative. I consider the phenomenology of two 
 explicit models that address the hierarchy problem in this context.\n\nhtt
