Abstract

The presence of a new singlet scalar particle a can open up new decay channels for the Higgs boson, through cascades of the form h --> 2a --> X, possibly making discovery through standard model channels impossible. If a is CP odd, its decays are particularly sensitive to new physics. Quantum effects from heavy fields can naturally make h --> 4 g the dominant decay which is difficult to observe at hadron colliders, and is allowed by CERN LEP for m(h) > 82 GeV. However, there are usually associated decays, either h --> 2g2gamma or h --> 4gamma, which are more promising. The decay h-->4gamma is a clean channel that can discover both a and h. At the CERN LHC with 300 fb(-1) of luminosity, a branching ratio of order 10(-4) is sufficient for discovery for a large range of Higgs boson masses. With total luminosity of approximately 8 fb(-1), discovery at the Fermilab Tevatron requires more than 5 x 10(-3) in branching ratio.

摘要

新的单态标量粒子a的存在可以为希格斯玻色子开辟新的衰变通道,通过h→2a→X这样的级联衰变,这可能会使通过标准模型通道进行发现变得不可能。如果a是CP奇的,其衰变对新物理特别敏感。重场的量子效应自然会使h→4g成为主导衰变,这在强子对撞机上很难观测到,并且欧洲核子研究中心的大型正负电子对撞机(LEP)在m(h)>82 GeV时允许这种衰变。然而,通常存在相关联的衰变,要么是h→2g2γ,要么是h→4γ,这些衰变更有希望。h→4γ衰变是一个干净的通道,可以同时发现a和h。在欧洲核子研究中心的大型强子对撞机(LHC)上,当光度为300 fb⁻¹时,对于大范围的希格斯玻色子质量,10⁻⁴量级的分支比就足以实现发现。在费米实验室的万亿电子伏特加速器(Tevatron)上,当总光度约为8 fb⁻¹时,发现需要分支比超过5×10⁻³。
