نویسنده
چکیده
A prospective for the inclusive search of the Standard Model Higgs boson in the decay channel H → γγ is presented with the CMS experiment at the LHC. The analysis relies on a strategy to determine the background characteristics and systematics from data. The strategy is applied to a Monte Model of the QCD background, with full simulation of the detector response. The discrimination between signal and background exploits information on photon isolation and kinematics. The resolution for the reconstructed Higgs boson mass profits from the excellent energy resolution of the CMS crystal calorimeter. A discovery significance above 5 sigma is expected at integrated LHC luminosities below 30 fb−1 for Higgs boson masses below 140 GeV/c2.

We review the search for new physics to be performed at the Large Hadron Collider(LHC). Namely, we review the expectations for the Higgs boson, supersym-metry and exotica detection at LHC. We also describe the main parameters of the CMS and ATLAS detectors.

The standard model (SM) predicts the existence of one scalar particle, the Higgs boson (H). The Higgs boson is the only particle of the SM which has not been found until now. Electroweak precision data mainly collected at CERN LEP and SLAC SLC in combination with the direct top-quark mass measurement at the Tevatron would favour a light Higgs boson with a mass below about 200 GeV at the 95% con...

In this paper we discuss how to extract information about physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) from searches for a light SM Higgs at Tevatron Run II and CERN LHC. We demonstrate that new (pseudo)scalar states predicted in both supersymmetric and dynamical models can have enhanced visibility in standard Higgs search channels, making them potentially discoverable at Tevatron Run II and CERN LHC...

We suggest a novel approach towards resolving the fermion mass hierarchy problem within the framework of the Standard Model. It is shown that the observed masses and mixings can be explained with order one couplings using successive higher dimensional operators involving the SM Higgs doublet field. This scenario predicts flavor–dependent enhancement in the the Higgs boson coupling to the fermio...
