Title: Gravitational Waves from NNaturalness

Abstract: NNaturalness provides a solution to the hierarchy problem by having large number of copies of the standard model. The reheating mechanism is NNaturalness provides energy density to each of these sectors. The sectors in NNaturalness which have a positive Higgs mass squared have massless quarks and hence can undergo a first order phase transition. The resultant gravitational waves can be observable by future gravitational wave observatories providing a unique window into NNaturalness. I this talk, I will describe the NNaturalness mechanism, and the parameter space of NNaturalness that can be probed by future GW observatories.
