73rd General physics meeting of ILC physics subgroup

Attendee: Fujii, Tian, Suehara, Kawada, Jeans, Aoki, Yumino, Mizuno, Kato, Kuhara, Tsumura, Onoe, Mori, Tokiyasu

* Opening comments (Fujii)
    - MEXT advisory panel
    - US HEP PI meeting

* Discussions (all)
Meetings:
    - ILCX (10/26-29)
    - summer camp (9/21,22,24)
    - Snowmass EF workshop (8/30-9/3) starting at 11pm
    - Snowmass Day (Sep. 24)
ILC-Japan physics working group:
    - Update JAHEP Asai-committee report
    - Input to snowmass
    - Should avoid duplicated effort with IDT
    - Increase number of involving people is good

* gammaH (Aoki)
    - Significance: 0.40 for SM, eLpR
    - Limit on zeta_AZ and zeta_A, compared with LHC H->gamma gamma

Q How much is the polarization?
A Analysis in 80-30, but interpreted to full polarization for zeta
Q Any possibility to improve Z/H separation on gamma bb?
C Z off-shell, so no difference on mass
C Spin is different but angles are already used
C energy of b hadrons? dependence is weak (only with b baryons?)

* gammaZ (Mizuno)
    - ~10^-4 accuracy on jet energy scale
    - 2D plot on dependence of jet energy scale with jet energy and angle

C Fit by simple function better than interpolation?
C There are missing particles at beam pipe on forward angles.
    Is angle measurement correct at forward angles?
C Binning of angle/energy can be based on number of events in every bin
    More binning in the forward region should be possible
Q Can be used for beam energy calibration?
A Better with mumu. Graham's simple study shows ~1 MeV.

* Higgs -> exotic (Kato)
    - Higgs->phiphi->4b, BR can probe up to ~0.1% with ee and mumu combined
    - Trying kinematic fit

Q Why qqh statistics so small?
A Similar number of llh and qqh produced, so Larger weight on qqh.
C Z->bb and h->ZZ->bbll gives same final state with signal.
Q Can yvalue of jet clustering help to separate llh?
A Maybe, but h->bbg->bbbb and h->ZZ->bbbb can be included in the background.
Q What causes the bump at the mass spectrum?
A Mis-pairing of the jets, can be improved but not easy
C Try with kinematic fit including probability cut
C 2-jet clustering for pairing is also possible

* Discussion (all)
    - Snowmass EF workshop: Morning sessions of Monday, Wednesday, Thursday are recommended to join
    - Next weekly meeting: 3rd of September
    - Next general physics meeting: 20th of October
    - New convener: Kawada
