Prospects of detecting massive isosinglet neutrino at LHC in the CMS detector
نویسنده
چکیده
A possibility to search for a heavy isosinglet (sterile) neutrino using its decay mode νs → l + 2 jets in the S channel production pp → W ∗ +X → lνs +X in the CMS experiment is studied. The only assumption about the heavy neutrino is its nonzero mixing with νe or νμ. The corresponding CMS discovery potential expressed in terms of the heavy neutrino mass and the mixing parameter between the heavy and light neutrino is determined. It is shown that the heavy neutrino with a mass up to 800 GeV could be detected in CMS. We also investigate the production of the heavy neutrino Nl mixed with νe and/or νμ in the SUC(3)⊗ SUL(2)⊗ SUR(2)⊗ U(1) model through the reaction pp → WR +X → l Nl +X with the same heavy neutrino decay channel as above. We find that for MWR < 3 TeV it is possible to discover the heavy neutrino with a mass up to 0.75 ·MWR .

Prospects of Detecting Massive Charged Higgs from Hadronic Decay H → tb in CMS
The possibility to detect the massive charged Higgs boson H using the hadronic decay channel H → tb in the associated production pp → tH + X in the CMS experiment at LHC is studied. There is a large background from tt̄bb̄ events which makes the observation difficult. Detection of a Higgs signal in this channel requires an excellent b-tagging performance. Good calorimeter mass resolution is also n...
متن کاملDiscovering the Higgs bosons of minimal supersymmetry with muons.
The prospects of detecting neutral Higgs bosons in the minimal supersymmetric model via their decays into muon pairs at the LHC are investigated. The CMS detector performance is adopted for a realistic study of observability. It is found that the muon pair decay mode might provide a very promising channel to search for the neutral Higgs bosons of minimal supersymmetry. This channel will allow p...
متن کاملCan LHC Test the See-Saw Mechanism?⋆
We discuss the prospects for detecting right-handed neutrinos which are introduced in the see-saw mechanism at future colliders. This requires a very accurate cancellation between contributions from different right-handed neutrinos to the light neutrino mass matrix. We search for possible symmetries behind this cancellation and find that they have to include lepton number conservation. Light ne...
