********Morning Session************
— openning remark (K. Fujii)
- Pre-Lab proposal submitted together document from JAHEP
- Budget request not yet ready to be approved
- Moving forward: Snowmass resumed; ILCX 2021 in October, hybrid or fully online
- Political environment stays good
- KEK PIP process startedJ
- AHEP ILC steering panel established: outreach; X+ILC talks in universities (7 times)
- Message from IDT chair: MEXT will setup a panel to review submitted ILC documents,
hopefully to completed before end of this calendar year; we community should provide as support as possible
- WG3-PHYS meeting on July 16; WG3-SOFT tutorial
— Probing a minimal U(1) model at future e+e- via fermion pair production (A. Das)
- arXiv:2104.10902
- Missing in SM: tiny neutrino mass; relic abundance of dark matter;
- Energy frontier / Intensity / Cosmic
- U(1) model
extra singlet scalar phi; U(1) charge combination of hyper charge and B-L;
anomaly cancellation condition; dark matter candidate, right handed neutrino
- U(1) breaking gives Z’ mass; neutrino mass with seesaw mechanism
- Z’ couples to left / right handed fermion differently
- choices of x_H keeping x_phi = 1
- new particles: Z’, N_R, Phi
- limits on model parameters
Q: LHC limit comparison (including HL-LHC)
Q: dominant contribution
- 4-parameters: x_H, x_Phi, g’, mZ’
Q: preferred value of g’
A/C: free parameter, below perturbative bound, < 1 for mZ’ ~ 7.5 TeV.
Q: possible origin of U(1)_X
A: GUT SU(5)
*******Lunch Break**********
— e+e- —> gamma Higgs (Y. Aoki)
- Motivation: new physics in HAZ and HAA couplings (A for photon)
- Cross section peaks at around 250 GeV; significant destructive interference between box W diagram and top triangle diagram; sigma ~ 0.2 fb, challenging analysis
- EFT: two effective couplings HAZ, HAA; HAA can be constrained well at HL-LHC using BR(H—>AA)
- Full simulation
- Pre-selection: Photon ID (Pandora); E_A > 50 GeV; recovery of split clusters
- H—>bb channel
b-tag cut: bmax1 > 0.77
MVA: E_A, mh_bb (angular method)
significance: 0.26 for e_L
- H—>WW*->gamma + l + 2-jet + missing
C: add a step of isolated lepton finder
significance: 0.31 / 0.04 for e_L/R
- MC uncertainty
- qq background breakdown: dominated by bb; little room for better flavor tagging
- combined upper limit: sigma_L < 1.8fb, sigma_R < 0.5 fb
- interpretation in EFT for bounds on HAZ coupling
Q: lower bound from positivity?
C: upper bound
C: two-parameter bounds, independent constraint on HAA
A: yes, will do
— Tau reconstruction in e+e- -> tau tau (K. Yumino)
- highest lepton; only lepton to hadrons; requires neutrino reconstructed for maximum sensitivity to tau spin
- A_tau can be measured with A_FB and A_e (from beam polarization)
- A_tau can be also measured with tau polarization as a function of tau polar angle
- previous study by D. Jeans et al relies on track impact parameters
- this study uses only kinematic constraints with known m_tau, E_tau; Cone method, tau momentum should be on a cone around visible product, cone size constrained; solutions are at the intersection of two cones (after one cone flipped)
- restrict signal without hard ISR: m_tautau > 240 GeV
- no solution when no intersection
- generate event w/o ISR & beam energy spread
everything MC, still no solution ~5% events, why?
A: ISR, beam energy spread
- next step to investigate how impact parameter can help
C: acceptance should be defined based on MC polarimeter histograms before and after selection
Q: P11, both tau plotted?
A: Yes
Q: how are two neutrino momenta determined?
A: explained in P7
C: need to study how the methods are affected by detector effects, e.g. allowed cone sizes should be smeared by detector resolutions
— Exploring Right Handed Neutrinos at ILC (J. Nakajima)
- RHN: same sign leptons significantly reduce background
- Forgot to consider Br of N->eqq (assuming 100% for the following)
- Using Delphes fast simulation
- Invariant masses look good, but having some bias
- Charge mis-ID: using full sim background. Not negligible but not overwhelming.
Q Is g1' Z'NN coupling?
A yes
C g1' = 1 means xH = -1.2. Enhancement on RHN production occurs at the parameter.
B-L means xH = 0, where LEP2 limit is tight.
C Background statistics show 1% mistag rate of the charge, but it seems too high.
It should mainly come from pion contamination. Should check MC truth.
C Cut plots should be provided except cuts on the parameter concerned.
— Higgs exotic decay & kinematic fitting (Y. Kato)
- WIMP DM couples with scalar mediator phi
- b probability: using sum of four b-likeliness
- mumuH, H->bb is main background
- ~0.1% Br limit (90%CL) obtained at 15-60 GeV phi mass
- Kinematic fit - see some improvements
Q How to calculate significance?
A Combine significance of each bin
C Should not use Gaussian assumption to calculate significance because of low statistics.
C Fitting the distribution should be more reasonable
C Simple cut on the plot (with automatic tuning) is also good,
Å@but have to care that we don't know the true mass?
C OK if we assume cuts to optimize at each mass.
C Using 2 higher b-tag values should not be good. 2 lower b-tags should work.
Q Is h -> ZZ, ZZ -> 4b dominant?
A 2nd dominant. ZZ decay not checked.
C Should reduce h->bb if using y-value to separate 4-jet and 2-jet.
