We investigate the viability of observing charged Higgs bosons () produced in association with bosons at the CERN large hadron collider, using the leptonic decay and hadronic decay, within different scenarios of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) with both real and complex parameters.
Performing a parton level study we show how the irreducible standard model background from jets can be controlled by applying appropriate cuts and find that the size of a possible signal depends on the cuts needed
to suppress QCD backgrounds and misidentifications. In the standard maximal mixing scenario of the MSSM we find a viable signal
for large and intermediate masses () when using softer cuts (, 50 GeV), whereas for harder cuts (, 100 GeV) we only find a viable signal for very large (). We have also investigated a special class of MSSM scenarios with large mass splittings among the heavy Higgs bosons where
the cross-section can be resonantly enhanced by factors up to one hundred, with a strong dependence on the -violating phases. Even so we find that the signal after cuts remains small except for small masses () when using the softer cuts. Finally, in all the scenarios we have investigated we have only found small -asymmetries. 相似文献

The light top-squark may be the lightest squark, and its lifetime may be ‘long enough’ in a kind of SUSY models that have not been ruled out yet
experimentally, so colorless ‘supersymmetric hadrons (superhadrons)’ (q is a quark excluding the t-quark) may be formed as long as the light top-squark can be produced. The fragmentation function of into heavy ‘supersymmetric hadrons (superhadrons)’ (Q̄=c̄ or b̄) and hadronic production of the superhadrons are investigated quantitatively. The fragmentation function is
calculated precisely. Due to the difference in spin of the SUSY component, the asymptotic behavior of the fragmentation function
is different from those of the existing ones. The fragmentation function is also applied to compute the production of heavy
superhadrons at the hadronic colliders Tevatron and LHC in the so-called fragmentation approach. The resultant cross-section
for the heavy superhadrons is too small to observe at Tevatron, but large enough at LHC, when all the relevant parameters
in the SUSY models are taken within the favored region for the heavy superhadrons. The production of ‘light superhadrons’
(q=u,d,s) is also roughly estimated with the same SUSY parameters. It is pointed out that the production cross-sections of
the light superhadrons may be much greater than those of the heavy superhadrons, so that even at Tevatron the light superhadrons may be produced
in great quantities.

Measured ratios of decay rates for , and are presented. These measurements are based on K± decays collected in a dedicated run in 2003 by the NA48/2 experiment at CERN. The results obtained are and . Using the PDG average for the K±→π±π0 normalisation mode, both values are found to be larger than the current values given by the particle data book and lead to
a larger magnitude of the |Vus| CKM element than previously accepted. When combined with the latest particle data book value of |Vud|, the result is in agreement with unitarity of the CKM matrix. In addition, a new measured value of is compared to the semi-empirical predictions based on the latest form factor measurements.

A study of various SUSY scenarios is presented in which the lightest supersymmetric particle is the gravitino and the next-to-lightest supersymmetric particle is a scalar tau with lifetimes ranging from seconds to years. Gravitinos are interesting dark matter candidates which can be produced in decays of heavier sparticles at the International Linear Collider (ILC), but remain undetected in direct searches of astrophysical experiments. We investigate the detection and measurement of metastable staus, which may be copiously produced at the ILC either directly or via cascade decays. A proper choice of the experimental conditions will allow one to collect large samples of s coming to rest in the calorimeters of the ILC detector and to study the subsequent decays . Detailed simulations show that the properties of the stau and the gravitino, such as mass and lifetime and mass, can be accurately determined at a future ILC and may provide direct access to the gravitational coupling, respectively Planck scale. 相似文献

From the large- QCD point of view, baryonia, tetraquark states, hybrids, and glueballs are studied. The existence of these states is argued

The ground state glueball has a mass of about 2450 MeV. is identified as the lowest glueball. The lowest four-quark nonet should be , , and . Combining with the heavy quark effective theory, spectra of heavy baryonia and heavy tetraquark states are predicted. corrections are discussed.

This paper discusses the potential of ATLAS to study supersymmetry in the “focus point” region of the parameter space of mSUGRA
models. The potential to discover a deviation from standard model expectations with the first few fb-1 of LHC data was studied using the parametrized simulation of the ATLAS detector. Several signatures were considered, involving
hard jets, large missing energy, and either b-tagged jets, opposite-sign isolated electron or muon pairs, or top quarks reconstructed
exploiting their fully-hadronic decays. With only 1 fb-1 of data each of these signatures may allow for observing an excess of events over standard model expectations with a statistical
significance exceeding five standard deviations. Furthermore, each of the two invariant mass distributions of the two leptons
produced by the and the three-body decays has a kinematic endpoint that measures the difference between the masses of the parent and daughter neutralino.
An analytical expression was derived for the shape of this distribution and was used to fit the simulated LHC data. A measurement
of the and mass differences was obtained and this information was used to constrain the MSSM parameter space. 相似文献

In the SUSY SO(10) GUT context, we study the exclusive processes
. Using the Wilson coefficients of the relevant operators including the new operators
which are induced by neutral Higgs boson (NHB) penguins, we evaluate some possible observables associated with these processes like the invariant mass spectrum (IMS), lepton pair forward-backward asymmetry (FBA), lepton polarization asymmetries etc. In this model the contributions from Wilson coefficients

The possible range of the η– mixing angle is determined from the transition form factors Fηγ(Q2) and with the help of up-to-date experimental data. For this purpose, the quark-flavor mixing scheme is adopted and the pseudoscalar
transition form factors are calculated in the framework of light-cone pQCD, in which the transverse-momentum corrections and
the contributions beyond the leading Fock state have been carefully taken into consideration. We construct a phenomenological
expression to estimate the contributions to the form factors beyond the leading Fock state, based on their asymptotic behavior
at Q2→0 and . By taking the quark-flavor mixing scheme, our results lead to , where the first error comes from the experimental uncertainty and the second error from the uncertainties of the parameters
of the wavefunction. The possible intrinsic charm component in η and is discussed, and our present analysis also disfavors a large intrinsic charm component in η and , e.g. .

A arising from end-point divergences in the hard spectator scattering and weak annihilation contributions, we use the global analysis for twelve

H,A and find that both large and small X
H,A terms are allowed by the global fit. In the case of the large X
H,A effects, the standard model (SM) prediction of the branching ratios (BRs) for

H,A effects, the SM prediction for these BRs is smaller than the experimental data. Motivated by the recent Belle measurement of

H,A case. Specifically, we present two new physics scenarios: R-parity violating SUSY and R-parity conserving SUSY.Received: 28 April 2004, Revised: 12 July 2004, Published online: 7 September 2004 相似文献

We analyze the impact of electron and positron beam polarization on radiative neutralino production at the international linear
collider (ILC). We focus on three different mSUGRA scenarios in turn at the Higgs strahlung threshold, the top pair production
threshold, and at 500 GeV. In these scenarios at the corresponding , radiative neutralino production is the only supersymmetric production mechanism that is kinematically allowed. The heavier
neutralinos and charginos as well as the sleptons, squarks and gluinos are too heavy to be pair produced. We calculate the
signal cross section and also the standard model background from radiative neutrino production. For our scenarios, we obtain
significances larger than 10 and signal to background ratios between 2% and 5%, if we have electron beam polarization –0.8 and positron beam polarization –0.3. If we have electron beam polarization of , then the signal is observable with but both the significance and the signal to background ratio are significantly improved for . 相似文献

We study the potential observation at the LHC of CP-violating effects in stop production and subsequent cascade decays,
,
,
, within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We study T-odd asymmetries based on triple products between the different
decay products. There may be a large CP asymmetry at the parton level, but there is a significant dilution at the hadronic
level after integrating over the parton distribution functions. Consequently, even for scenarios where large CP intrinsic
asymmetries are expected, the measurable asymmetry is rather small. High luminosity and precise measurements of masses, branching
ratios and CP asymmetries may enable measurements of the CP-violating parameters in cascade decays at the LHC. 相似文献

In grand-unified theories (GUT), non-universal boundary conditions for the gaugino masses may arise at the unification scale

produced in pp interactions. In the singlet representation with universal gaugino masses only the light Higgs boson can be produced in this
cascade with the parameter region of interest for us, while with non-universal gaugino masses heavy neutral MSSM Higgs boson
production may dominate. The allowed parameter space in the light of the WMAP constraints on the cold dark-matter relic density
is investigated in the above scenarios for gaugino mass parameters. We also demonstrate that combination of representations
can give the required amount of dark matter in any point of the parameter space. In the non-universal case we show that heavy
Higgs bosons can be detected in the cascade studied in parameter regions with the WMAP preferred neutralino relic density. 相似文献

During the June 2002 run NA60 collected around 600 000 dimuon triggers in proton-nucleus collisions at 400 GeV. We show that
the collected dimuon mass spectra can be understood in terms of known sources. The specific target setup, consisting of Beryllium,
Indium and Lead targets, simultaneously exposed to the beam, allowed us to study the nuclear dependence of the production
cross-section of the
and
resonances. The elementary nucleon-nucleon production cross-sections at 400 GeV for the
,
and
mesons are also presented. By using the
-Dalitz decay, dominating the mass range below 450 MeV, we, furthermore, extracted the
production cross-section and its nuclear dependence. The results are discussed in the framework of previous measurements,
mostly obtained in different decay channels, performed by NA27, HELIOS-1 and CERES-TAPS.
