NOT a complete theory.. Higgs field is needed to generate mass

Higgs mass ~ W mass.

Try to include gravity – Drives up the higgs mass

Gravitational force much weaker than other forcesin nature.

“ Hierarchy Problem ”

February 6, 2007 Amitabha Das 5

Solution ??

New mechanism where the higgs mass doesn’t go up in Planck scale

OR

The fundamental Plack scale is not so big.

Theories based on the idea of extra dimension tryto look into the second possibility.

February 6, 2007 Amitabha Das 6

One extra dimension in addition to the (1+3)-dimensional space-time.

There are two branes embedded in this five-dimensional bulk.

Visible brane : Contains the Standard model fields Invisible brane : Only gravitational field can propagate to this brane.

Visible braneContain SM field.

Gravity is weak.

Invisible braneGravity is strong.

Fundamentally gravitational force is strong.

Wave function exponentially suppressed away from the invisible (Planck) brane.

Phenomenology How we search for gravitons

Graviton – Mediator of gravitational force.

Theory predicts graviton decays to fermion or boson pair

We look for excited graviton through the final states :

Free Parameters

In RS Model there are two free parameters :

1. Mass of the excited state of Graviton M1

Electron and Photon IdentificationElectron and Photon Identification

Electrons and photons deposit most of their energyin the electromagnetic (EM) calorimeter

1. Identify a region in the EM calorimeter with high energy deposition

2. Several variables to characterize a shower originating from an electron or photon

February 6, 2007 Amitabha Das 29

Some of the variables …

1. What fraction of the total energy is deposited in the electromagnetic calorimeter region.

2. In an event with electron or photon as final state, they should be isolated from other particles, a measure of, by how much the electrons or photons are isolated. 3. Shower shape : A shower originating from electrons or photons is narrow and does NOT penetrate deep in the calorimeter compared to a shower originating from other particles.
