Summary

As you know ….
ATLAS and CMS collaborations observed a particle consistent
with the Standard Model Higgs boson
• Reported on July 4th 2012
• Cited in 2013 Nobel Prize
2013 Nobel Prize in Physics to François Englert & Peter
Higgs, “for the theoretical discovery of a mechanism that
contributes to our understanding of the origin of mass of
subatomic particles, and which recently was confirmed through
the discovery of the predicted fundamental particle, by the ATLAS
and CMS experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider”.

What’s next ?
Lot of buzz and excitement since then ….

But let’s take a step back
What the Higgs boson was meant to do?
Kalanand Mishra, Fermilab
!6 / 54
But let’s take a step back
What the Higgs boson was meant to do?
➜ To give mass to the fundamental particles
Kalanand Mishra, Fermilab
!7 / 54
But let’s take a step back
What the Higgs boson was meant to do?
➜ To give mass to the fundamental particles
• Massless photon, massive W,
Z bosons ⟹ symmetry of the
electroweak force is broken

W+, W−, Z, γ,
Higgs boson

But let’s take a step back
What the Higgs boson was meant to do?
➜ To give mass to the fundamental particles
Matter particles in the “vacuum” acquire mass as they collide with Higgs
Also change handedness
when they collide with the
Higgs boson:
!
left-handed ⬌ right-handed
Kalanand Mishra, Fermilab
!9 / 54
But let’s take a step back
What the Higgs boson was meant to do?
➜ And to complete the Standard Model
all masses due to Higgs
A quantum field theory
• symmetries of space & time
conservation laws (momentum,
energy, …)
Based on symmetry of forces
• mass generation via Higgs
• no unknown particles left
Kalanand Mishra, Fermilab
!10 / 54
But let’s take a step back
What the Higgs boson was meant to do?
➜ And to complete the Standard Model
In a world without Higgs boson …
• Quarks and leptons would remain massless
➜ Nucleon mass little changed, but proton outweighs neutron
• W, Z boson masses → (1/2500 × observed)
➜ Rapid β-decay
lightest nucleus is one neutron
no hydrogen atom, no chemistry, no stable
structures like the solids and liquids we know
. . . the character of the physical world would be profoundly changed
Kalanand Mishra, Fermilab
!11 / 54
But let’s take a step back
What do the data tell us:
• Is the observation consistent with hypothesis?
• Has the Higgs boson delivered everything expected from it?
• Are all conceptual issues related to the Standard Model
resolved after this discovery?
Outcome
to all three
to any

Is the observation consistent with hypothesis?

Is Higgs alone or has a family?
• In the simplest scenario, the Higgs is a
single particle
• But it doesn’t make a simpler story ➜ can’t
explain how the different forces of nature
might be components of a single force
Extensions of the SM
aimed at unification
(e.g., supersymmetry)
typically have >1 Higgs

So, what questions remain unanswered now
Questions about the broken symmetry
The fermion masses: note the log scale !
• Why 10 orders of magnitude difference in these masses?
• Why do fermions with the same charge have different masses?
• Why many fundamental forces, or unification at high energy?
SM Higgs doesn’t explain any of these ➜
need new physics

So what’s next ?
An alternative approach to search for new physics
The Standard Model with a Higgs boson is a low-energy
effective theory
• valid below an energy scale Λ of the underlying physics
A good bet is that the underlying physics has something to do
with weak boson interactions at high energies
• not probed with sufficient precision until now
• kinematically wasn't fully accessible at previous colliders
Kalanand Mishra, Fermilab

How does this alternative approach work?

for the β decay.

The Standard Model’s breaking point
• While the Standard Model perfectly describes things at low
energies, without something Higgs-like, its predictions at highenergy make no sense.
• For instance, at very high energies it predicts that things
happen more than 100 percent of the time !!!!

• I’ve been a member of the CMS collaboration for the past 5 years
The results I will present today rely most critically on
− electrons: track matched to clusters in EM calorimeter
− muons: minimum ionizing tracks, penetrate deep in muon system
− jets: constructed with combined tracking + calo info

Higgs boson: connection to a broken symmetry
• What does it tell us experimentally?
Probes of the broken symmetry
• Weak boson pair production
• Measurement of production rates
• Connection to Higgs physics
Focus on electroweak interaction at high energies
• New physics searches in weak boson couplings
Summary
Kalanand Mishra, Fermilab
!50 / 54
Very relevant for our current situation
“About 500 years ago man’s curiosity took a special
turn toward detailed experimentation. It was the
beginning of science as we know it today. Instead of
reaching directly at the whole truth, at an explanation
for the entire universe, science tried to acquire partial
truths in small measure …. Instead of asking general
questions and receiving limited answers, it asked
limited questions and found general answers.”
— Viki Weisskopf, Physics in the Twentieth Century
Visible matter is < 5% of our universe
But crucial to probe the origin of mass
• which will hopefully also tell us about
the emergence of gravity from it
• and the nature of dark matter

Goals going forward with the LHC 14 TeV run
Now that we are firmly in the post-Higgs era …
• Deeper probes of the origin of mass
- Higgs couplings to fermions; W, Z bosons; self coupling
- Invisible width Higgs couples to dark matter
- Anomalous couplings of W, Z, and Higgs bosons
• New physics at high energy
- WW scattering
- Feasible to explore with the first year of 13−14 TeV data
Kalanand Mishra, Fermilab
!53 / 54
Summary
It has been only a year and half since the new boson was discovered.
Thanks to the outstanding performance of the LHC, we now know a
great deal more about the nature of this Higgs boson.
Now we seek a full understanding of the origin of mass
• related to the broken symmetry of the electroweak force
• door to new underlying physics hidden behind the SM
With 7-8 TeV data, started to probe it
• at 3-boson vertex @ few % level
• at 4-boson vertex @ interesting levels for the first time
The 13−14 TeV LHC will take us to the finish line of our goal

What about neutrino masses?
Experiments have shown that neutrinos are always left-handed.
!
!
Since right-handed neutrinos do not exist in the Standard Model,
the theory predicts that neutrinos can never acquire mass.
Therefore, the discovery of neutrino mass in itself is a clear
evidence that, at the very least, the SM is incomplete.
Kalanand Mishra, Fermilab
!58 / 54
Possible explanations of the neutrino masses
In one extension to the SM, left- and right-handed neutrinos exist.
These Dirac neutrinos acquire mass via Higgs mechanism but righthanded neutrinos interact much more weakly than any other particles.
According to another extension of the SM, extremely heavy righthanded neutrinos are created for a brief moment before they collide
with the Higgs boson to produce light left-handed Majorana neutrinos.

Missing energy due to undetected particles
missing ET
When the W boson decays
to an electron or muon and a
neutrino, the neutrino
escapes the detector without
being detected.

This causes an energy
imbalance and we “measure”
missing transverse energy
(MET).
!
Undetected particles from
new physics can also give
rise to MET.

W+jets shape uncertainty
Two relatively unknown parameters in W+jets shape
•Factorization/renormalization scale (µ)
•Matrix Element − Parton Shower matching threshold (q)
Need to vary them in the fit to get a good modeling of data:
where 0 < α < 1, 0 < β < 1
•α and β are consistent between muon and electron data
•Data prefer smaller value for ME-PS threshold than 20 GeV

Fit to extract diboson signal
•Diboson contribution floated completely
•QCD constrained using data (i.e., fit to MET distribution)
•Other backgrounds constrained using the most state of the
art theory predictions (NLO or NNLO)

Likelihood discriminant using uncorrelated variables
•Higgs boson kinematics is fully described
by → {mWW, mjj, θ1, θ2, θ*, ϕ, ϕ1}
-mWW is the variable we use to
extract limit, so it is not included
-mjj used to estimate background
normalization, so it is not included
•the 5 angular variables are included
•Lepton charge is a good variable since
signal is charge-symmetric, W+jets is not
