The Standard Model

Recent searches for physics beyond the Standard Model at high energy colliders are presented. The main focus is on searches for supersymmetry, extra dimensions and new gauge bosons. In all search analyses the data are found to agree well with the Standard Model background expectation and no evidence for contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model is found. The data are thus used to place limits on new physics scenarios.

AbstractThe vectorlike top partners are potential signature of some new physics beyond the Standard Model at the TeV scale. In this paper, we propose to search for the vectorlike T quark with charge 2/3 in the framework of a simplified model where the top partners only couples with the third generation of Standard Model quarks. We investigate the observability for electroweak production of a vectorlike T quark in association with a standard model bottom quark through the process $$pp \rightarrow T\bar{b}j$$ p p → T b ¯ j with the subsequent decay mode of $$T\rightarrow t(\rightarrow b W^+\rightarrow b \ell ^{+} \nu _{\ell })h( \rightarrow \gamma \gamma )$$ T → t ( → b W + → b ℓ + ν ℓ ) h ( → γ γ ) , at the proposed High Energy Large Hadron Collider (HE-LHC) and Future Circular Collider in hadron-hadron mode (FCC-hh) including the realistic detector effects. The 95% confidence level excluded regions and the $$5\sigma $$ 5 σ discovery reach in the parameter plane of $$\kappa _{T}-m_T$$ κ T - m T , are respectively obtained at the HE-LHC with the integrated luminosity of 15 ab$$^{-1}$$ - 1 and the FCC-hh with the integrated luminosity of 30 ab$$^{-1}$$ - 1 . We also analyze the projected sensitivity in terms of the production cross section times branching fraction at the HE-LHC and FCC-hh.

Abstract We explore the sensitivity of directly testing the muon-Higgs coupling at a high-energy muon collider. This is strongly motivated if there exists new physics that is not aligned with the Standard Model Yukawa interactions which are responsible for the fermion mass generation. We illustrate a few such examples for physics beyond the Standard Model. With the accidentally small value of the muon Yukawa coupling and its subtle role in the high-energy production of multiple (vector and Higgs) bosons, we show that it is possible to measure the muon-Higgs coupling to an accuracy of ten percent for a 10 TeV muon collider and a few percent for a 30 TeV machine by utilizing the three boson production, potentially sensitive to a new physics scale about Λ ∼ 30 − 100 TeV.

Recent searches for physics beyond the Standard Model at high-energy colliders are reviewed, with emphasis on supersymmetry, additional space dimensions, extra gauge bosons, leptoquarks and model-independent searches. The results reported are based on data samples of up to 0.5 and 2.5 fb -1 collected at HERA and at the Tevatron, respectively.

Measurements at particle collider experiments, even if primarily aimed at understanding Standard Model processes, can have a high degree of model independence, and implicitly contain information about potential contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model. The CONTUR package allows users to benefit from the hundreds of measurements preserved in the RIVET library to test new models against the bank of LHC measurements to date. This method has proven to be very effective in several recent publications from the CONTUR team, but ultimately, for this approach to be successful, the authors believe that the CONTUR tool needs to be accessible to the wider high energy physics community. As such, this manual accompanies the first user-facing version: CONTUR v2. It describes the design choices that have been made, as well as detailing pitfalls and common issues to avoid. The authors hope that with the help of this documentation, external groups will be able to run their own CONTUR studies, for example when proposing a new model, or pitching a new search.

MONOJET EVENTS: FROM DARK MATTER TO EXTRA DIMENSIONS, A SEARCH FOR THE EXOTICS USING THE STANDARD MODEL

Monojet events consist in event topologies with a high transverse momentum jet and a large amount of missing transverse energy. They constitute a promising final state that could lead to phenomena beyond the Standard Model. The theoretical models giving rise to such a signature include the pair production of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles, as dark matter candidates, and models of large extra dimensions. Monojet events can even be used to measure the Standard Model properties of Z boson decays, provided that the precision of the analysis is high enough. Such precision can be achieved by using data-driven determinations of the Standard Model contributions to monojet events. Exotics searches for new physics in such a final state have been performed at all high energy hadronic collider experiments since SPS. The ATLAS and CMS analyses with 7 TeV LHC data provide the latest and most useful information obtained from monojet studies. Their results are presented and discussed in this review paper.

Abstract After the recent high precision determinations of $$V_{us}$$Vus and $$V_{ud}$$Vud, the first row of the CKM matrix shows more than $$4\sigma $$4σ deviation from unitarity. Two possible scenarios beyond the Standard Model can be investigated in order to fill the gap. If a 4th non-sequential quark $$b'$$b′ (a vector-like weak isosinglet) participates in the mixing, with $$\vert V_{ub'} \vert \sim 0.04$$|Vub′|∼0.04, then its mass should be no more than 6 TeV or so. A different solution can come from the introduction of the gauge horizontal family symmetry $$SU(3)_\ell $$SU(3)ℓ acting between the lepton families and spontaneously broken at the scale of about 6 TeV. Since the gauge bosons of this symmetry contribute to muon decay in interference with Standard Model, the Fermi constant is slightly smaller than the muon decay constant so that unitarity is recovered. Also the neutron lifetime problem, that is about $$4\sigma $$4σ discrepancy between the neutron lifetimes measured in beam and trap experiments, is discussed in the light of the these determinations of the CKM matrix elements.

The possible evidence for new physics beyond the standard model is discussed.

Single Production

The eγ collider is better suited to study single production of the gauge bosons. In this paper, we first consider the contributions of the three-site Higgsless (3SHL) model and the left–right twin Higgs (LRTH) model to the standard model (SM) processes eγ→eZ and eγ→νeW, and then study single production of the new neutral and charged gauge bosons predicted by these two models via eγ collision in the future high energy e+e- linear collider experiments. We find that the correction effects of 3SHL model on the processes eγ→eZ and eγ→νeW might be detected in the future, while this is not the case for the LRTH model. The process eγ→eZ' can give rise to different signatures in the 3SHL and LRTH models and thus can be used to distinguish these two kinds of new physics models at the high energy e+e- linear colliders.
