Beyond the Standard Model @ LHC

HP Beck - LHEP Bern Standard Model and Beyond in the LHC EraValparaiso, January 7-12 2008, Chile

14

The Standard Model (SM) explains results of particle physics experiments with an accuracy high enough to withstand challenges set by high precision expermients.

– more on SM physics with ATLAS in Monika Wielers´ talk on

Friday

However:Neutrino flavour oscillations from which massive neutrinos conclude are a first sign of physics beyond the SM (BSM)

Moreover, the SM leaves a number of issues unanswered:

Number of quark and lepton generations – why 3 ?

Mass hierarchy of particles

Unification of interactions electromagnetic, weak, strong; and with gravity!

Unitarity violation in WLWL scattering at high energy ! Strong indication that LHC will see new physics !

LHC – explore the TeV energy scale and search for new particles up to ~5 TeV

SuperSymmetry

Valparaiso, January 7-12 2008, Chile 18

In the last 20 years, SUSY most popular template for exploration of new physics at the LHC

Large number of signatures proposed, addressing large spectrum of possibilities

Classical signatures are based on minimal SUSY model (MSSM), with

two undetected particles in the final state

Rather generic model, posing interesting experimental problems for the discovery

Very useful benchmark for development of techniques for understanding the nature of underlying SUSY model.

Still very active field of phenomenological investigation

Focus on discovery and measurement strategies for MSSM with R-parity conservation

HP Beck - LHEP Bern Standard Model and Beyond in the LHC Era

Page 19: Prospects for Physics beyond the Standard Model with ATLAS

SuperSymmetry

SuperSymmetry (SUSY) fundamental continuous symmetry connecting fermions and bosons

Q|F> = |B>, Q|B> = |F>

{Q,Q}=-2p

generators obey anti-commutation relations with 4-momentum

Connection to space-time symmetry

SUSY stabilises Higgs mass against loop corrections (gauge hierarchy/fine-tuning problem)

Leads to Higgs mass 135 GeV

Good agreement with LEP constraints from EW global fits

SUSY modifies running of SM gauge couplings ‘just enough’ to give Grand Unification at single scale.

SUSY Particle Spectrum

HP Beck - LHEP Bern Standard Model and Beyond in the LHC Era

SUSY partners expected to have same masses as SM states

Not observed (despite best efforts!)

SUSY must be a broken symmetry at low energy

Higgs sector expanded

h: light (mhmZ at tree level!), neutral, scalar, CP-even

H0: heavier than h, neutral, scalar, CP-even

A0: neutral, scalar, CP-odd H: charged, scalar

• SUSY gives rise to partners of SM states with opposite spin-statistics but otherwise same Quantum Numbers.

R-parity

R=(-1)3(B-L)+2s

SM particles R=+1, SUSY particles R=-1

R-parity conservation (multiplicative QN) implies No proton decay SUSY particles are produced in pairs Lightest SuperSymmetric Particle (LSP) is absolutely

stable and present in the final state of every SUSY decay

WMAP results indicate cold dark matter makes 22% of total energy density

LSP is good candidate for cold dark matterLSP: colorless, uncharged, interacts weakly

(otherwise, would have been detected easily)

→ SUSY events with large ETmiss

SUSY Model Framework

Minimal SuperSymmetryic Extension of the Standard Model (MSSM)contains > 105 free parameters NMSSM etc. has more difficult to map complete parameter space!

Assume specific well-motivated model framework in which generic signatures can be studied.

Often assume SUSY broken by gravitational interactions mSUGRA/CMSSM framework unified masses and couplings at the GUT scale 5 free parameters

(m0, m1/2, A0, tan(), sgn()).

R-Parity assumed to be conserved. Exclusive studies use benchmark

points in mSUGRA parameter space: LHCC Points 1-6 Post-LEP benchmarks

Exclusive Studies

Once inclusive signal found, precision measurements are needed measure weak scale SUSY parameters (masses etc.) using exclusive

channels Different philosophy to TeV Run II (better S/B, longer decay chains)

aim to use model-independent measures.

Two neutral LSPs escape from each event Impossible to measure mass of each sparticle using one channel alone

Use kinematic end-points to measure combinations of masses Old technique used many times before

( mass from decay spectrum, W (transverse) mass in Wl) Difference here is we don't know mass of neutral final state particles

Micro BH can be discovered up M(BH) 5 TeV with 1 fb-1

Once signal found, can measure gravity scale MD

Measuring n is also possible with measuring BH temperature TBH

LHC and ATLAS will see first collisions in Mid 2008

Installation and commissioning are well under way – fingers crossed

Good motivation for BSM physics

hierarchy problem, GUTs,...

Unitarity violation in WLWL scattering at high energy !

A plethora of extensions to the SM are on the market

SUSY among the most promising

Many new heavy states predicted to be in reach with LHC and ATLAS by most models

W´, WH, Z´, ZH, A, H, 0, , T, T, T, T ,L, Q, N, G, BH, KK, ...

A few benchmark models studied, and some general techniques developed for many of the models

If indeed we do observe a signal, many years of excitement ahead of us

Many surprises possible in the early days – first year – this year !

Do BH really decay into multiparticle heavy states?

New theoretical input by Meade and Randall arvix:0708.3017v1

“we argue that the highly studied BH signatures based on thermal multiparticle final states are very unlikely…”

Suggest low multiplicity final states are more likely and should be studied

• This is controversial, but needs investigation

• LHC & ATLAS will tell us more starting mid 2008 onwards....
