重建顶点位移事件中的粒子质量

Reconstructing particle masses in events with displaced vertices

Giovanna Cottin

摘要:

我们提出了一个简单的方法来提取粒子质量给定一个位移顶点签名事件拓扑结构中,两个长寿的母粒子衰变为可见粒子和一个看不见的女儿。母粒子可能是带电的,也可能是中性的,而中性的子粒子可能对应于不同模型中的暗物质粒子。该方法允许通过使用壳条件和能量-动量守恒来提取父和子质量,除了父的位移衰变位置之外,这允许在逐事件的基础上完全求解运动学方程。我们通过包括探测器效应的模拟来证明该方法的有效性。如果在大型强子对撞机(LHC)的发现搜索中看到位移事件,则可以应用这种技术。

英文摘要:

We propose a simple way to extract particle masses given a displaced vertex signature in event topologies where two long-lived mother particles decay to visible particles and an invisible daughter. The mother could be either charged or neutral and the neutral daughter could correspond to a dark matter particle in different models. The method allows to extract the parent and daughter masses by using on-shell conditions and energy-momentum conservation, in addition to the displaced decay positions of the parents, which allows to solve the kinematic equations fully on an event-by-event basis. We show the validity of the method by means of simulations including detector effects. If displaced events are seen in discovery searches at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), this technique can be applied.
