✦ Synopsis

Both theory and experiments strongly suggest that new phenomena await discovery above the energy range of the standard model for particle physics (SM). In this brief report we argue that a correct description of physics in the TeV energy region needs to account for the inherent randomness induced by short-distance fluctuations. The existence of ''unparticles", alleged to emerge at the next-generation colliders, is motivated by a dynamic setting that is out-of-equilibrium and able to sustain a rich spectrum of complex phenomena.
