- UCLA, March 15th 2006

## The Standard Model

- Matter is made out of  fermions:
- quarks and leptons
- 3 generations
- Forces are carried by Bosons:
- Electroweak: ****,W,Z
- Strong: gluons
- Higgs boson:
- Gives mass to particles
- Not found yet

## What is Beyond the SM?

- Many good reasons to believe there is as yet unknown physics beyond the SM
- Many possible new particles/theories:
- Supersymmetry:
- Many flavours
- Extra dimensions (G)
- New gauge groups (Z’, W’,...)
- New fermions (e*, t’, b’, ...)
- Leptoquarks
- Can show up!
- As subtle deviations in precision measurements
- In direct searches for new particles

- B. Heinemann

- UCLA, 03/15/06

## There is a Lot Unknown

- The Standard Model
- only accounts for 4% of matter in Universe
- No candidate for Cold Dark Matter (≈25%)
- cannot explain large mass hierarchy in fermion sector:
- >10 orders of magnitude
- does not allow grand unification:
- electroweak and strong interactions do not unify
- has large radiative corrections in Higgs sector
- require fine-tuning of parameters
- Cannot explain matter-antimatter asymmetry?
- Supersymmetry can solve three
- of  these problems

- Hubble Constant

- Matter Density

- SM

- B. Heinemann

- UCLA, 03/15/06

## What’s Nice about Susy?

- Unifications of forces possible
- Dark matter candidate exists:
- The lightest neutral gaugino
- Radiative corrections to Higgs acquire SUSY corrections:
- No fine-tuning required
- Changes relationship between mW, mtop and mH:
- Also consistent with precision measurements of MW and mtop

- With SUSY

## Supersymmetry

- B. Heinemann

- UCLA, 03/15/06

## Supersymmetry

- SM particles have supersymmetric partners:
- Differ by 1/2 unit in spin
**Sfermions** (squarks, selectron, smuon, ...): spin 0
**gauginos** (chargino, neutralino, gluino,...): spin 1/2
- No SUSY particles found as yet:
- SUSY must be broken: breaking mechanism determines phenomenology
- More than 100 parameters even in “minimal” models!

5 Higgs bosons: h, H, A, H±
Neutral Higgs Boson:
Pseudoscalar A
Scalar H, h
Lightest Higgs (h) very similar to SM
At high tanß:
A is degenerate in mass with either h or H
Decay into either  or bb for mA<300 GeV:
BR(A ) ≈ 10%, BR(A bb) ≈ 90% 
Cross section enhanced with tan2

## Neutral MSSM Higgs

- Production mechanisms:
- bb  A/h/H
- gg  A/h/H
- Experimentally:
- pp  b+X  bbb+X
- pp  +X   +X

- B. Heinemann

- UCLA, 03/15/06

## MSSM Higgs: Tau-Selection

- Select Events:
- One  decays to e or 
- One  decays to hadrons
- Require:
- e or  with pT>10 GeV
- Hadronic:
- Narrow Jet with low multiplicity
- 1 or 3 tracks in 10o cone
- No tracks between 10o and 30o:
- Cone size descreasing with increasing energy
- Low 0 multiplicity
- Mass<1.8 GeV
- Kinematic cuts against background:
- W+jets
- Photon+jets
- Dijets

- B. Heinemann

- UCLA, 03/15/06

## Acceptance and Background

- Main background:
- Drell-Yan 
- Indistinguishable signature => Separate kinematically
- No full mass reconstruction possible for low Higgs pT:
- Form mass like quantity: mvis=m(,e/,ET)
- Good separation between signal and background
- Data mass distribution agrees with SM expectation:
- mvis>120 GeV:
- 8.4±0.9 expected, 11 observed

- B. Heinemann

- UCLA, 03/15/06

## MSSM Higgs: Results

**CDF pp ******** A+X******** ********+X**
- Sensitivity at high tan
- Exploting regime beyond LEP
**Brandnew result from DØ**
- Combined with other mode
- pp  bA+Xbbb+X
**Future (L=8 fb****-1****):**
- Probe values  down to 25-30!

- B. Heinemann

- UCLA, 03/15/06

## 3rd generation Squarks

- 3rd generation is special:
- Masses of one can be very low due to large SM mass
- Particularly at high tan
- Direct production or from gluino decays:
- pp bb or tt
- pp gg bbbb or tttt
- Decay of sbottom and stop:
- b b0
- Stop depends on mass:
- Heavy: t t0
- Medium: t b± bW0
- Light: t c0

## This analysis:
Gluino rather light: 200-300 GeV
 BR(g->bb)=100% assumed
Spectacular signature:
4 b-quarks + ET
Require b-jets and ET>80 GeV

- Gluino rather light: 200-300 GeV
-  BR(g->bb)=100% assumed
- Spectacular signature:
- 4 b-quarks + ET
- Require b-jets and ET>80 GeV

- Bottom Squarks

- Expect:2.6±0.7
- Observe: 4

- Exclude new parameter space in gluino vs. sbottom mass plane

- B. Heinemann

- UCLA, 03/15/06

## Light Stop-Quark: Motivation

- If stop quark is light:
- decay only via t->c10
- E.g. consistent with relic density from WMAP data
- Balazs, Carena, Wagner: hep-ph/0403224
- CDM
- m(t)-m(10)≈15-30 GeV/c2
- m(t)<165 GeV/c2
- Search for 2 charm-jets and large Et:
- ET(jet)>35, 25 GeV
- ET>55 GeV

## Light Stop-Quark: Result

- Charm jets:
- Use “jet probability” to tag charm:
- Probability of tracks originating from primary vertex
- Improves signal to background ratio:
- Signal Efficiency: 30%
- Background rejection: 92%
- Data consistent with background estimate
- Observed: 11
- Expected: 8.3+2.3-1.7
- Main background:
- Z+ jj -> vvjj
- W+jj -> vjj

- B. Heinemann

- UCLA, 03/15/06

## Stop Quark: Result and Future

- Due to slight excess in data:
- No limit set on stop quark mass yet
- Future light stop reach :
- L=1 fb-1:  m(t)<160 GeV/c2
- L=4 fb-1:  m(t)<180 GeV/c2
- LHC:
- Direct production will be tough to trigger
- But gluino decay to stop and top yields striking signature!
- Two W’s, two b-quarks, two c-quarks and missing ET
- If m(g)>m(t)+m(t)

## Charginos and Neutralinos 

- Charginos and Neutralionos:
- SUSY partners of W, Z, photon, Higgs
- Mixed states of those
- Signature:
- 3 leptons +
- Recent analyses of EWK precision data:
- J. Ellis, S. Heinemeyer, K. Olive, G. Weiglein:
- hep-ph/0411216
- Light SUSY preferred

- ~

- B. Heinemann

- UCLA, 03/15/06

## 3 leptons + 

- Many analyses to cover full phase space:
- Low tan:
- 2e+e/
- 2+e/
- ee
- High tan:
- 2e+isolated track
- Sensitive to one-prong tau-decay
- Other requirements:
- Dilepton mass >15 GeV and not within Z mass range
- Less than 2 jets
- Significant ET

- Et
