Higgs Boson Decays to Neutralinos in Low-Scale Gauge Mediation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the decays of a standard model-like MSSM Higgs boson to pairs of neutralinos, each of which subsequently decays promptly to a photon and a gravitino. Such decays can arise in supersymmetric scenarios where supersymmetry breaking is mediated to us by gauge interactions with a relatively light gauge messenger sector (Mmess . 100TeV). This process gives rise to a collider signal consisting of a pair of photons and missing energy. In the present work we investigate the bounds on this scenario within the minimal supersymmetric standard model from existing collider data. We also study the prospects for discovering the Higgs boson through this decay mode with upcoming data from the Tevatron and the LHC.

Analysis of the Neutralino System in Two–Body Decays of Neutralinos
In the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM), the neutralinos, the spin– 1/2 Majorana superpartners of the neutral gauge and Higgs bosons, are expected to be among the light supersymmetric particles that can be produced copiously at future high–energy colliders. We analyze two–body neutralino decays into a neutralino plus a Z boson or a lightest neutral Higgs boson h, allowing the releva...
متن کاملLarge Higgs Boson Exchange Contribution in Three-Body Neutralino Decays
We show that the Higgs boson exchange contribution can be large in three-body decays of neutralinos even in the case of small tan β. This enlarges the branching ratios for the decays χ̃02 → χ̃ 0 1 b b̄ and χ̃02 → χ̃ 0 1 τ − τ. This is the case in the region of the parameter space where the two lightest neutralinos are gaugino-like, the sfermions are heavier than 300 GeV, and mA0 ∼ 200 GeV.

We show how the well studied γγ inclusive Higgs signal can be used at the Large Hadron Collider to test Gauge Mediated Supersymmetry Breaking scenarios in which a rather heavy Higgs boson decays into two light neutralinos, the latter yielding two photons and missing (transverse) energy.

متن کاملThree–Body Decays of SUSY Particles
We analyze the decays of charginos, neutralinos, gluinos and the first/second generation squarks in the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, focusing on the three–body decays in scenarios where the ratio tan β of vacuum expectation values of the two Higgs doublet fields is large. We show that the three– body decays of the next–to–lightest neutralinos (lightest charginos) into...
متن کاملMore Corrections to the Higgs Mass in Supersymmetry
In supersymmetry, the Higgs quartic couplings is given by the sum in quadrature of the weak gauge couplings. This leads to the prediction of a light Higgs boson, which still holds when considering loop corrections from soft supersymmetry breaking. However, another source of corrections, which explicitly depends on the scale of the mediation of supersymmetrey breaking, is from generic hard break...
