顶部扇区的有效场论:多喷口有帮助吗?

Effective Field Theory in the top sector: do multijets help?

Christoph Englert, Michael Russell, Chris D. White

摘要:

许多可能的新物理学的研究采用了有效场论(EFT),其中对标准模型的修正采用了更高维的算符形式,并被大的能量尺度所抑制。这种理论与数据的拟合通常使用部分子水平的可观测量,这限制了可以使用的数据集。为了从理论上模拟搜索通道,涉及许多额外的射流,重要的是要包括树级矩阵元素匹配的部分子簇射算法,和一个合适的匹配过程,以消除额外的辐射的双重计数。然后有两个潜在的问题:(i)EFT校正是缺席的淋浴,导致在匹配过程中的不连续性的额外来源;(ii)在匹配过程中的不确定性可能是这样的,没有额外的约束,从观测敏感的辐射。在本文中,我们回顾了为什么第一个在实践中不是问题,并对第二个进行了详细的研究。特别是,我们量化的EFT预期从顶部对加上多射流事件,相对于包容性的顶部对生产单独的额外约束。

英文摘要:

Many studies of possible new physics employ effective field theory (EFT), whereby corrections to the Standard Model take the form of higher-dimensional operators, suppressed by a large energy scale. Fits of such a theory to data typically use parton level observables, which limits the datasets one can use. In order to theoretically model search channels involving many additional jets, it is important to include tree-level matrix elements matched to a parton shower algorithm, and a suitable matching procedure to remove the double counting of additional radiation. There are then two potential problems: (i) EFT corrections are absent in the shower, leading to an extra source of discontinuities in the matching procedure; (ii) the uncertainty in the matching procedure may be such that no additional constraints are obtained from observables sensitive to radiation. In this paper, we review why the first of these is not a problem in practice, and perform a detailed study of the second. In particular, we quantify the additional constraints on EFT expected from top pair plus multijet events, relative to inclusive top pair production alone.
