![The Standard Model (SM), if extrapolated up to extremely high energies by means of its Renormalization Group (RG) equations, reveals a rather peculiar property: the electroweak vacuum does not correspond to the configuration of minimal energy; contrarily, it is a
metastable state close to a phase transition [1]. This scenario — dubbed near-criticality — must be considered as the most important theoretical message learned from the LHC run I.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ucszkckhwklqbzutm5fss772/bafkreie2bifuqirqvzkdenn633hzecxefdqu72vk7ygdvsyxpx7tuuhq44@jpeg)
