To establish the Higgs mechanism sui generis experimentally, the self-energy potential of the Higgs field must be reconstructed. This task requires the measurement of
the trilinear and quadrilinear self-couplings, as predicted, for instance, in the Standard Model or in supersymmetric theories.
The couplings can be probed in multiple Higgs production at high-luminosity linear colliders. Complementing earlier studies to develop a coherent picture of the trilinear couplings, we have analyzed
the production of pairs of neutral Higgs bosons in all relevant channels of double Higgs-strahlung, associated multiple Higgs
production and WW/ZZ fusion to Higgs pairs.

We present the effects of heavy CP-even (H) and CP-odd (A) Higgs bosons on the production cross section of the process
at the energy around the mass poles of the Higgs bosons. It is found that interference between H and A with small mass gap, as well as the ones between Higgs bosons and continuum, contributes to the cross section, if the photon
beams are polarized and if we observe the helicity of the top quarks. It is demonstrated in the framework of the minimal supersymmetric
extension of the standard model that the H and A contributions can be sizable at future colliders for small values of . The methods to measure the CP-parity of the Higgs boson are also presented. The statistical significance of detecting the Higgs signals and measuring the
Higgs CP-parity is evaluated.

Searches for H Z production with the Higgs boson decaying into an invisible final state were performed using the data collected by the DELPHI experiment at centre-of-mass energies between 188 GeV and 209 GeV. Both hadronic and leptonic final states of the Z boson were analysed. In addition to the search for a heavy Higgs boson, a dedicated search for a light Higgs boson down to 40 GeV/c2 was performed. No signal was found. Assuming the Standard Model HZ production cross-section, the mass limit for invisibly decaying Higgs bosons is 112.1 GeV/c2 at 95% confidence level. An interpretation in the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) and in a Majoron model is also given.Received: 2 September 2003, Revised: 10 November 2003, Published online: 15 January 2004 相似文献

The sensitivity to a light Higgs boson in the general 2HDM (II), with a mass below 40 GeV, is estimated for a future Linear Collider operating with a very high luminosity at the Z peak (GigaZ). We consider possible Higgs boson production via the Bjorken process, the (hA) pair production, the Yukawa process , and the decay . Although the discovery potential is considerably extended compared to the current sensitivities, mainly from LEP, the existence
of a h or A even with a mass of a few GeV cannot be excluded with two billion Z decays. The need to study the very light Higgs scenario at a Linear Collider running at several hundred GeV and the LHC is emphasized.

We evaluate two-body decay modes of charginos in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with complex parameters (cMSSM).
Assuming heavy scalar quarks we take into account all decay channels involving charginos, neutralinos, (scalar) leptons, Higgs
bosons and Standard Model gauge bosons. The evaluation of the decay widths is based on a full one-loop calculation including
hard and soft QED radiation. Special attention is paid to decays involving the Lightest Supersymmetric Particle (LSP), i.e.
the lightest neutralino, or a neutral or charged Higgs boson. The higher-order corrections of the chargino decay widths involving
the LSP can easily reach a level of about ±10%, while the corrections to the decays to Higgs bosons are slightly smaller,
translating into corrections of similar size in the respective branching ratios. These corrections are important for the correct
interpretation of LSP and Higgs production at the LHC and at a future linear e

We consider the Higgs boson production at high energy hadron colliders in the framework of the kT-factorization approach. The attention is focused on the dominant gluon-gluon fusion subprocess. We calculate the total cross
section and transverse momentum distributions of the inclusive Higgs production using unintegrated gluon distributions in
a proton obtained from the full CCFM evolution equation. We show that kT-factorization gives a possibility to investigate the associated Higgs boson and jets production. We calculate the transverse
momentum distributions and study the Higgs-jet and jet-jet azimuthal correlations in the Higgs + one or two jet production
processes. We demonstrate the importance of the higher-order corrections within the kT-factorization approach. These corrections should be developed and taken into account in the future applications.

We study the double-diffractive production of various heavy systems (e.g. Higgs, dijet, and SUSY particles) at LHC and Tevatron collider energies. In each case we compute the probability that the rapidity gaps,
which occur on either side of the produced system, survive the effects of soft rescattering and QCD bremsstrahlung effects.
We calculate both the luminosity for different production mechanisms, and a wide variety of subprocess cross sections. The
results allow numerical predictions to be readily made for the cross sections of all these processes at the LHC and the Tevatron
collider. For example, we predict that the cross section for the exclusive double-diffractive production of a 120 GeV Higgs boson at the LHC is about 3 fb, and that the QCD background in the decay mode is about 4 times smaller than the Higgs signal if the experimental missing-mass resolution is 1 GeV. For completeness
we also discuss production via or WW fusion.

We have analysed the data collected by OPAL at centre-of-mass energies between 189 and 209 GeV searching for Higgs boson
candidates from the process followed by the decay of where is the CP-odd Higgs boson. The search is done in the region where the mass, , is below the production threshold for , and the CP-even Higgs boson mass is within the range 45-86 GeV/c

. In this kinematic range, the decay of may be dominant and previous Higgs boson searches have very small sensitivities. This search can be interpreted within any
model that predicts the existence of at least one scalar and one pseudoscalar Higgs boson. No excess of events is observed
above the expected Standard Model backgrounds. Model-independent limits on the cross-section for the process are derived assuming 100% decays of the into and 100% decays of the into each of the following final states: , , , , and . The results are also interpreted in the CP-conserving no-mixing MSSM scenario, where the region and is excluded.

The search for the Higgs boson was one of the most relevant issues of the final years of LEP running at high energies. An excess of 3σ beyond the background expectation has been found, consistent with the production of the Higgs boson with a mass near 115 GeV/c2. At the upgraded TeVatron and at LHC the search for the Higgs boson will continue. At TeVatron Higgs bosons can be detected with masses up to 180 GeV with an assumed total integrated luminosity of 20 fb—1. LHC has the potential to discover the Higgs boson in many different decay channels for Higgs masses up to 1 TeV. It will be possible to measure Higgs boson parameters, such as mass, width, and couplings to fermions and bosons. The results from Higgs searches at LEP2 and the possibilities for searches at hadron colliders will be reviewed. 相似文献

We consider the two-Higgs-doublet model with explicit CP-violation, where the effective Higgs potential is not CP-invariant at the tree level. The three neutral Higgs bosons of the model are the mixtures of CP-even and CP-odd bosons which exist in the CP-conserving limit of the theory. The mass spectrum and tree-level couplings of the neutral Higgs bosons to gauge bosons and
fermions are significantly dependent on the parameters of the Higgs boson mixing matrix. We calculate the Higgs-gauge boson,
Higgs-fermion, triple and quartic Higgs self-interactions in the MSSM with explicit CP-violation in the Higgs sector and CP-violating Yukawa interactions of the third generation scalar quarks. In some regions of the MSSM parameter space substantial
changes of the self-interaction vertices take place, leading to significant suppression or enhancement of the multiple Higgs
boson production cross sections.

Considering the SM Higgs boson mass in the range of (95–235) GeV, we present here a mechanism for indirect searches of this scalar in UHE cosmic rays interactions. The mechanism is the decay of Higgs bosons which are produced through bubble formation due to vacuum excitation in an UHE cosmic rays interactions with air nuclei. We develop a model of hadronic interaction based on algorithms of the GENCL code of the UA5 experiment of CERN and some physics of CORSIKA code (Karlsruhe report), incorporating a fraction of energy transfer to bubble formation through vacuum excitation and subsequent multiparticle production via conversion of Higgs boson to heavy fermion pairs. Such events are expected to have high multiplicity and excess muons. This mechanism has significant effect starting from E
P 1018eV. It is found that the average muon number decreases gradually upto 175 GeV Higgs boson mass and remain practically constant thereafter for all primary energies (E
P) above 1018 eV and for all fractions of energy transfer (f
e 0.01–0.5). The fluctuation of muon multiplicity decreases with E
P and increases very slowly with Higgs mass upto 175 GeV, remaining practically invariant thereafter. 相似文献

We explore the possibility of distinguishing the SM-like MSSM Higgs boson from the SM Higgs boson via Higgs boson pair production
at future muon collider. We study the behavior of the production cross-section in SM and MSSM with Higgs boson mass for various
MSSM parameters tan β and m
A
. We observe that at fixed CM energy, in the SM, the total cross-section increases with the increase in Higgs boson mass whereas
this trend is reversed for the MSSM. The changes that occur for the MSSM in comparison to the SM predictions are quantified
in terms of the relative percentage deviation in cross-section. The observed deviations in cross-section for different choices
of Higgs boson masses suggest that the measurements of the cross-section could possibly distinguish the SM-like MSSM Higgs
boson from the SM Higgs boson.

Double diffractive Higgs production at pp (or ) colliders continues to attract attention as a potential signal in the search for the boson. We present improved perturbative
QCD estimates of the event rates for both the exclusive and inclusive double diffractive Higgs processes, paying particular
attention to the survival probability of the rapidity gaps. We find that the major uncertainty is in the prediction for the
survival probability associated with soft rescattering. We show that an analogous process, the double diffractive production
of a pair of jets with large values of , has an event rate which makes it accessible at the Tevatron. Observation of this process can therefore be used as a luminosity
monitor for two-gluon exchange processes, such as the production of a Higgs boson with rapidity gaps on either side.

We review the production of scalar Higgs-like particles in high-energy electron–electron collisions, via the fusion of electroweak
gauge bosons. The emphasis is on how to distinguish a CP-even from a CP-odd Higgs particle. Among the more significant differences, we find that in the CP-odd case, the Higgs spectrum is much harder, and the dependence of the total cross section on the product of the polarizations
of the two beams much stronger, than in the CP-even case. We also briefly discuss parity violation, and the production of charged Higgs bosons.

In this paper the charged Higgs signal through the decay to a pair of muon and neutrino (H
±→μν) is analyzed. The analysis attempts to estimate the amount of muonic signal of the charged Higgs at LHC at a center of mass
energy of 14 TeV. The signal process is the top quark pair production with one of the top quarks decaying to a charged Higgs
(non SM anomalous top decay) and the other decaying to a W boson which is assumed to decay hadronically to two light jets.
Due to the small branching ratio of charged Higgs decay to muon, results are quoted for data corresponding to an integrated
luminosity of 300 fb−1 which is expected to be collected at the LHC high luminosity regime. It is shown that a signal significance close to 5σ down to below 1σ is achievable for a charged Higgs mass in the range 80 GeV<m(H
±)<150 GeV taking the top quark pair production with both top quarks decaying to W bosons as the main irreducible background. 相似文献

We study central Z-boson production accompanied by rapidity gaps on either side as a way to gauge Higgs weak boson fusion production at the
LHC. We analyse the possible backgrounds for the -decay mode and show that these can be substantially reduced. Special attention is paid to the evaluation of the gap survival
factor, which is the major source of theoretical uncertainty in the rate of H, Z and W central production events with rapidity gaps.

We consider the hadronic radiation patterns for the generic process of
forward jet production at the LHC, where the (centrally produced)
originate either from a Higgs, a Z or from standard QCD production processes. A numerical technique for evaluating the radiation patterns for non-trivial final states is introduced and shown to agree with the standard analytic results for more simple processes. Significant differences between the radiation patterns for the Higgs signal and the background processes are observed and quantified. This suggests that hadronic radiation patterns could be used as an additional diagnostic tool in Higgs searches in this channel at the LHC.Received: 25 July 2003, Published online: 26 September 2003 相似文献

− Linear Collider. We consider the discovery potential of both a sub-TeV and a multi-TeV machine. We show that, within such
a theoretical scenario, several novel production and decay channels involving the two physical Higgs states, precluded at
the LHC, could experimentally be accessed at such machines. Amongst these, several Higgs signatures have very distinctive
features with respect to those of other models with enlarged Higgs sector, as they involve interactions of Higgs bosons between
themselves, with Z′ bosons as well as with heavy neutrinos. In particular, we present the scope of the Z′ strahlung process for single and double Higgs production, the only suitable mechanism enabling one to access an almost decoupled
heavy scalar state (therefore outside the LHC range). 相似文献

We evaluate, in a model-independent way, the signal-to-background ratio for Higgs detection in exclusive double-diffractive events at the Tevatron and the LHC. For the missing-mass approach to be able to
identify the Higgs boson, it will be necessary to use a central jet detector and to tag b quark jets. The signal is predicted to be very small at the Tevatron, but observable at the LHC. However we note that the
background, that is double-diffractive dijet production, may serve as a unique gluon factory. We also give estimates for the
double-diffractive production of and mesons at the Tevatron. We emphasize that a high-resolution missing-mass measurement, on its own, is insufficient to identify
rare processes.

We explore non-standard Higgs phenomenology in the gaugephobic Higgs model in which the Higgs can be lighter than the usually quoted current experimental bound. The Higgs propagates in the bulk of a 5D space–time and Electroweak Symmetry Breaking occurs by a combination of boundary conditions in the extra dimension and an elementary Higgs. The Higgs can thus have a significantly suppressed coupling to the other Standard Model fields. A large enough suppression can be found to escape all limits and allow for a Higgs of any mass, which would be associated with the discovery of W′ and Z′ Kaluza–Klein resonances at the LHC. The Higgs can be precisely discovered at B-factories while the LHC would be insensitive to it due to high backgrounds. In this Letter we study the Higgs discovery mode in (3S), (2S), and (1S) decays, and the model parameter space that will be probed by BaBar, Belle, and CLEO data. In the absence of an early discovery of a heavy Higgs at the LHC, A Super-B factory would be an excellent option to further probe this region. 相似文献
