在LHC和ML技术上优化希格斯玻色子测量的可能性

Potential for optimizing Higgs boson CP measurement in H to tau tau decay at LHC and ML techniques

R. Józefowicz, E. Richter-Was, Z. Was

摘要:

本文研究了在τ-轻子通道中τ ^+-到rho^+- nu_tau和τ ^+-到a1^+- nu_tau的连续τ-轻子通道中H到τ τ $衰变的希格斯玻色子CP态的测量潜力。随后的衰变rho^+-到pi^+-pi ^0,a1^+-到rho^0 pi^+-和rho^0到pi^+ pi^-都被考虑在内。我们将探索该方法的扩展,其中使用基于可见衰变产物的平面的共面角,τ ^+-的pi ^0到pi^pm pi ^0 nu_tau。这个角对横向自旋关联很敏感,因此对宇称也很敏感。我们表明,在级联衰变的情况下的τ到a1 nu,希格斯CP状态的信息可以提取的共面角以及。因为在级联衰变中,a1^+-到rho^0 pi ^pm,rho^0到pi^+ pi^-可以定义多达四个平面,所以对于H \to tau tau到a1^+ a1^- nu nu衰变,可以使用多达16个不同的共面角。这些共面性携带部分补充的但也相关的信息。因此,评估总体灵敏度是麻烦的。我们研究这种分析的敏感性潜力,通过开发和实施机器学习(ML)技术中的模型。我们量化可能的改进时,使用多维相空间的传出衰变产物的方向,而不是1维投影,即共面角。我们不考虑探测器的不确定性或背景污染造成的歧义,我们专注于ML方法和τ到3 π nu衰变的希格斯玻色子宇称测量的有用性。

英文摘要:

We investigate potential for measuring CP state of the Higgs boson in the H to tau tau$ decay with consecutive tau-lepton decays in channels: tau^+- to rho^+- nu_tau and tau^+- to a1^+- nu_tau combined. Subsequent decays rho^+- to pi^+- pi^0, a1^+- to rho^0 pi^+- and rho^0 to pi^+ pi^- are taken into account. We will explore extensions of the method, where acoplanarity angle for the planes build on the visible decay products, pi^+- pi^0 of tau^+- to pi^pm pi^0 nu_tau, was used. The angle is sensitive to transverse spin correlations, thus to parity. We show, that in the case of the cascade decays of tau to a1 nu, information on the CP state of Higgs can be extracted from the acoplanarity angles as well. Because in the cascade decay a1^+- to rho^0 pi^pm,rho^0 to pi^+ pi^- up to four planes can be defined, up to 16 distinct acoplanarity angles are available for H \to tau tau to a1^+ a1^- nu nu decays. These acoplanarities carry in part supplementary but also correlated information. It is thus cumbersome to evaluate an overall sensitivity. We investigate sensitivity potential of such analysis, by developing and implementing model in the Machine Learning (ML) techniques. We quantify possible improvements when multi-dimensional phase-space of outgoing decay products directions is used, instead of 1-dimensional projections i.e. the acoplanarity angles. We do not take into account ambiguities resulting from detector uncertainties or background contamination, we concentrate on usefulness of ML methods and tau to 3pi nu decays for Higgs boson parity measurement.
