Higgs Physics at LHC(gearing up for discovery)

Outline

• Introductory remarks (what we know)

• LHC, ATLAS, and CMS

• Gold-plated channel HZZ4 at CMS (in full scrutiny)

• Other SM Higgs discovery channels

• MSSM Higgs discovery channels

SM Higgs Trivia

• Start from scalar fieldo doublet pseudo-scalar in SM

• Require local gauge invarianceo need massless gauge fields Ao lagrangian acquires terms

• Mexican hat potentialo min V() is not at =0 o non-zero vacuum expectation value v0—ether of 21 centuryo expand around minimumo effective mass terms for gauge bosonso effective mass for h-field itself

• Free lunch: o force interact with fermions with ad hoc couplings f o effective fermion masses (within the P-violation framework!)

Two important points to remember: • Higgs boson mass is the only free parameter• (Higgs-particle coupling) ~ (mass of particle)

o Production mechanisms: first one needs to produce heavy particleso Decay channels: higgs likes to decay to heaviest particles it can

What we know: theory

After renormalization• (Q)• If mH were small at 1 TeV,

runs down, flips sign at some scale Q, and vacuum breaks loose

• If mH were large at 1 TeV, runs up, coupling explodes at some scale, theory becomes non-perturbative, and theorists can retire

SM Higgs has a very narrow window of opportunity to be self-sufficient due to a fine-tuned (apparently accidental) cancellation of large correction factors

small excess?Formally, it looked like 4 effect!If it was Higgs, they saw too many...

LEP was let run longer to get more data

Tight Cuts

After taking more data and combining results of all 4 experiments,

the final word from LEP:

No discovery...

Consistency with background: ~1.7

Limit on Higgs mass:

MH > 114.4 GeV @95% CL

Phys. Lett. B565 (2003) 61

What we know: direct search at Tevatron

Some lessons (example on MH=110 GeV):• SM Higgs exclusion at 95% CL was expected at L=1.2

• Now at L~300 pb-1, the excluded x-section should’ve been a factor of two above the SM x-section

• The actual difference is a factor of ten

What we know: circumstantial evidence

Presence of too light or two heavy Higgs in loops would make various SM precision measurements less self-consistent

• mH<166 GeV at 95% CL

• mH<199 GeV at 95% CL, if the direct search limit mH>114 GeV is included

HZZ4analysis strategy

Peak in mdistribution Cut variables: • muon isolation: 2 muons in tt and Zbb appear in B-decays, i.e. within

jets• displaced vertex: 2 muons in tt and Zbb appear in B-decays• missing energy: tt will have hard neutrinos• Kinematics: muons in Zbb and tt tend to be softer• NOT USED:

o pT() for Higgs is larger than for ZZ, but the non-zero pT appears only at NLO, which is not accounted for in the current MC simulation

o Number of jets for Higgs (ggHZZ) is larger than for ZZ (qqZZ), but this effect of hard jets is again NLO…

Cut optimization• mH-dependent (read m4-dependent)• identify most important and not-correlated cuts

o isolation cut on the least isolated muon (i.e., the same cut for all muons)o pT cut for the 3rd softest muon

• and produce smooth cut(m4) functionsThis strategy makes the search automatically optimized for any mass at which Higgs boson may chose to show up

Peak search:• Include statistics and systematics into significance evaluation

HZZ4word of caution

Search in a broad range of parameter phase space

mH=115-600 GeV

Probability of finding a local excess somewhere is much higher than naïve statistical significance might imply: e.g. S=3 is almost meaningless

A priori assumptions must be clearly defined

• discoveries may be expected already at L~1 fb-1

• SM Higgs, if that’s all we have, is expected to be discovered by the time we reach L~10 fb-1
