Z-decays in the NMSSM
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study a subset of electroweak-precision observables consisting of MW , sin 2 θ eff, BR(Z → τ τ) and Γ(Z → ττ)/Γ(Z → ee)− 1 (characterizing leptonic Z-decays) in the context of the NMSSM. After a brief review of common MSSM-NMSSM effects (e.g. for Γ(Z → ττ)/Γ(Z → ee)− 1, which has been little discussed, even in the MSSM), specific NMSSM scenarios are studied, with the result that the NMSSM, considering existing constraints on its spectrum, is essentially consistent with available measurements, given the current accuracy.

Sfermion decays into singlets and singlinos in the NMSSM
We investigate how the addition of the singlet Higgs field in the NMSSM changes the sfermion branching ratios as compared to the MSSM. We concentrate in particular on the third generation, discussing decays of the heavier stop, sbottom or stau into the lighter mass eigenstate plus a scalar or pseudoscalar singlet Higgs. We also analyse stop, sbottom and stau decays into singlinos. It turns out ...
متن کاملHiggs Sector in Extensions of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model
Extensions of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) with additional singlet scalar fields solve the important μ-parameter fine-tuning problem of the MSSM.We compute and compare the neutral Higgs boson mass spectra, including one-loop corrections, of the following MSSM extensions: next-tominimal supersymmetric standard model (NMSSM), the nearly-minimal supersymmetric standard model (n...
متن کاملProbing the Goldstone equivalence theorem in Heavy Weak Doublet Decays
This paper investigates the decays from heavy higgsino-like weak-doublets into Z, h bosons and missing particles. When pair-produced at the LHC, the subsequent Z, h → ``, bb̄ decays in the doublet decay cascade can yield 4`, 2`2b and 4b + / ET + j(s) final states. Mutual observation of any two of these channels would provide information on the the associated doublets’ decay branching fractions i...
متن کاملCascade Decays in the NMSSM 1
We study unconventional signatures of the NMSSM (the MSSM with an additional gauge singlet) with a singlino LSP. Compared to sparticle production processes in the MSSM, these consist in additional cascades (one or two additional l + l − , τ + τ − or b ¯ b pairs or pho-tons), possibly with macroscopically displaced vertices with distances varying from millimeters to several meters.
متن کاملNMSSM Higgs Discovery at the LHC ∗
We demonstrate that Higgs discovery at the LHC is possible in the context of the NMSSM even for those scenarios such that the only strongly produced Higgs boson is a very SM-like CP-even scalar which decays almost entirely to a pair of relatvely light CP-odd states. In combination with other search channels, we are on the verge of demonstrating that detection of at least one of the NMSSM Higgs ...
