The ATLAS discovery potential for MSSM neutral Higgs bosons decaying to a μμ pair in the mass range up to 130 GeV

چکیده
Results are presented on the discovery potential for MSSM neutral Higgs bosons in the mh −max scenario. The region of large tanβ, between 15 and 50, and mass between ≈ 95 and 130 GeV is considered in the framework of the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), for a centre-of-mass energy √ s = 14 TeV. This parameter region is not fully covered by the present data either from LEP or from Tevatron. The h/A bosons, supposed to be very close in mass in that region, are studied in the channel h/A → μ+μ− accompanied by two b-jets. The study includes a method to control the most copious background, Z → μ+μ− accompanied by two b-jets. A possible contribution of the H boson to the signal is also considered.

Search of the Higgs boson decaying into tau-leptons at ATLAS
The search for the Higgs boson is one of the main goals of the Large Hadron Collider experiments. Both in the Standard Model (SM) and in its minimal supersymmetric extensions (MSSM), one or several new bosons are expected as manifestations of the Higgs field. The tau lepton will be essential for Higgs(es) discovery. In fact, both in SM and in the MSSM, the Higgs boson(s) decaying into tau-pairs...

These final results from DELPHI searches for the Standard Model SM Higgs boson, together with benchmark scans of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model MSSM neutral Higgs bosons, used data taken at centre-of-mass energies between 200 and 209 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 224 pb−1.The data from 192 to 202 GeV are reanalyzed with improved b-tagging for MSSM final states decaying to...

We study resonant CP violation in the Higgsstrahlung process ee → H1,2,3 (Z → ee, μμ) and subsequent decays H1,2,3 → bb̄, ττ, in the MSSM with Higgs-sector CP violation induced by radiative corrections. At a high-energy ee linear collider, the recoil-mass method enables one to determine the invariant mass of a fermion pair produced by Higgs decays with a precision as good as 1 GeV. Assuming an i...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Discovery Potential for Higgs Bosons of the Minimal Supersymmetric Extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) with ATLAS
The discovery potential of the ATLAS experiment at the LHC for Higgs bosons of the MSSM is discussed. Several CP conserving and one CP violating benchmark scenario are investigated. 1. The Higgs sector of the MSSM and Benchmark Scenarios The Higgs sector of the MSSM contains two Higgs doublets leading to five physical Higgs bosons: three neutral and two charged ones. At Born level the phenomeno...
متن کاملHiggs Searches with ATLAS
The search for the Standard Model Higgs boson with the ATLAS detector at the LHC is reported. The search combines several decay channels in the mass range 110 < mH < 600 GeV and derives upper limits on the production cross section as a function of mH . A search for neutral MSSM Higgs bosons (A/H/h) decaying to τ lepton pairs is also reported, where upper limits on the production cross sections ...
