LHC上$h\rightarrow c\bar{c}γ$中的粲夸克Yukawa耦合

Charm-quark Yukawa Coupling in $h\rightarrow c\bar{c}γ$ at LHC

Tao Han, Benjamin Nachman, Xing Wang

摘要:

在强子对撞机上探测粲夸克汤川耦合是非常具有挑战性的,主要是由于大的标准模型(SM)背景(包括$h\to b\bar b$)和缺乏有效的触发信号$h\to c\bar c$。我们研究了探测这种耦合在大型强子对撞机通过希格斯辐射衰变$h\rightarrow c\bar{c}γ$的可行性。在最终态中存在额外的光子可能有助于信号识别和背景抑制。采用精细的触发策略和利用基本的机器学习,我们发现,$2σ$灵敏度可以达到约8倍的SM值的耦合极限后,高亮度LHC(HL-LHC)。我们的结果是可比的,并补充其他预测的直接和间接探针的$h\to c\bar c$在HL-LHC。如果探测器的能力没有重大改变,高能强子对撞机的这种搜索就不会有重大改进。

英文摘要:

It is extremely challenging to probe the charm-quark Yukawa coupling at hadron colliders primarily due to the large Standard Model (SM) background (including $h\to b\bar b$) and the lack of an effective trigger for the signal $h\to c\bar c$. We examine the feasibility of probing this coupling at the LHC via a Higgs radiative decay $h\rightarrow c\bar{c}γ$. The existence of an additional photon in the final state may help for the signal identification and background suppression. Adopting a refined triggering strategy and utilizing basic machine learning, we find that a coupling limit of about 8 times the SM value may be reached with $2σ$ sensitivity after the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). Our result is comparable and complementary to other projections for direct and indirect probes of $h\to c\bar c$ at the HL-LHC. Without a significant change in detector capabilities, there would be no significant improvement for this search from higher energy hadron colliders.
