  1. Electroweak Corrections to Higgs Production and decays Giuseppe Degrassi Università di Roma Tre I.N.F.N. Sezione di Roma Tre ILC Physics in Florence Florence, September 12-14, 2007

  2. My PERSONAL opinion on ILC If LHC does not discover anything or discovers only the Higgs (of any mass) ILC has a very little chance to be built The best things non ILC people can do for ILC To be prepared for ANY kind of new physics LHC could discover Warning THIS IS NOT A TALK ON ILC PHYSICS

  3. What kind of new physics? 2007 2002 • A Higgs boson heavier than 220 GeV requires • NP of non decoupling type • A Higgs boson ligther than 220 GeV may be • accompanied by NP of decoupling type

  4. Two radiative parameters: NP of non decoupling type Extra Z A heavy Higgs needs: Isosplitted particles More difficult (light sleptons)

  5. Outline • Higgs production and decay in SM. • NP can play a role in • EW correction to • in the SM • NP contributions in : • colored scalars, QCD corrections • Conclusions

  6. SM Higgs production at LHC Gluon fusion VBF Associate production with Associate production with W,Z

  7. dominant SM Higgs decays (BR) huge QCD background small BR exp. clean dominant

  8. Gluon fusion Higgs production in the SM • LO completely known • Georgi, Glashow, Machacek, Nanopoulos (78) • QCD Corrections • NLO completely known (LO Xsect. 60-70% ) • Dawson (91), Djouadi, Graudens, Spira, Zerwas (91-95), • Ellis et al. (88), Bauer, Glover (90) • NNLO known • Harlander, Kilgore (01-02), • Catani, de Florian, Grazzini (01), • Anastasiou, Melnikov (02), • Ravindran, Smith, van Neerven (03) • NNLO+softgluon resummation (NLO Xsect. 6-15% ) • Catani, de Florian, Grazzini, Nason (03) Error on QCD correction at the level of 10% EW corrections could be important

  9. Higgs decay in two photons in the SM • Lowest order (one-loop) completely known • largest contribution is bosonic (W exchange) • Ellis, Gaillard, Nanopoulos (76), Shifman et al. (79) • QCD Corrections • Corrections to the top-bottom contribution • completely known • Zheng,Wu (90),Djouadi, Spira, Zerwas, van der Bij, Graudens (91-94), • Dawson , Kauffman (93), Melnikov, Yakolev (93), Steinhauser (96) • Analytic results available • Fleischer, Tarasov, Tarasov (04), Harlander, Kant (05), • Anastasiou et al. (06), Aglietti, Bonciani, Vicini, G.D. (06) • EW Corrections • Large limit • Liao, Li (97), Fugel, Kniehl, Steinhauser (04) • Large limit • Korner, Melnikov, Yakovlev (96)

  10. Two-loop EW Corrections to

  11. Decay width: Amplitude: Lowest order: does not exist in BFG

  12. Background Field Method • Technique for quantizing gauge field theories without • losing explicit gauge invariance. Fields are splitted • in classical (background) and quantum components. • Green functions of classical fields satisfy simple • QED-like W.I. • Larger number of Feynman rules. Implemented in • FeynArts • Denner, Dittmaier, Weiglein (95), T. Hahn (01) • In the Feynman BFG the vertex is absent • Reduction in the number of diagrams • 1l: 28 -> 12; 2l: 4200 -> 1700 • finite

  13. Two-loop contributions: two mass scales diagrams one mass scale diagrams We look for a result valid at least in the intermediate Higgs mass regime

  14. Structure of the diagram cuts • Helicity structure does not allow • a cut at • First cut is at when • q is massless (in ) . • Next cut at • (in ) To cover the intermediated higgs mass region must be computed exactly can be computed via a Taylor expansion

  15. Light fermion Contributions Aglietti, Bonciani, Vicini, G.D. (04) • Reduction of loop integrals • to MI via IBP (LI) • (Laporta algorithm) • Computation of MI • via differential equations • Analytic solution of MI in • terms of Generalized Harmonic • Polylogarithms GHPLs thresholds at • Goncharov (98), Broadhurst (99), Remiddi, Vermaseren (00) • Gehrmann, Remiddi, (01), Maitre (06) • Aglietti, Bonciani (03-04)

  16. Light fermion Contributions

  17. Bosonic and top Contributions F. Maltoni, G.D. (05) • Reduction of Taylor expanded amplitudes to bubble • integrals • O.V. Tarasov (95) • Evaluation of two-loop massive bubble integrals • Daviydychev, Tausk (93) • Vertex function finite and vanishing for . • Renormalization of . finite, O.S. limit

  18. Corrections to Cancellation between EW and QCD contributions Similar results obtained via a fully numerical approach Passarino, Sturm, Uccirati (07)

  19. Two-loop EW Corrections to

  20. Calculation at the partonic level similar to • L.F. contribution computed exactly, top contribution • via Taylor expansion Enhancement of the cross section of about 6-8% in the intermediate higgs mass range.

  21. Colored scalar contribution to

  22. Form factor in • Colored scalar particles present in • the MSSM, (squarks). • Try to make a (as much as possible) • model independent analysis

  23. QCD Corrections Aglietti, Bonciani, Vicini, G.D. (06) • and are unrelated: different renormalizations • are possible. • An analytic result, following the same steps as for • the L.F. contributions, can be derived. • Analytic result expressed in terms of HPL • thresholds at

  24. QCD Corrections renormalized O.S., renormalized Similar analysis by Anastasiou et al. (06) Numerical check against Muehlleitner, Spira (06)

  25. The Manohar-Wise Model Manohar, Wise. (06) • Scalar sector of the SM augmented with a (8,2)1/2 • scalar multiplet. • (1,2)1/2, (8,2)1/2 are the only representations which have • couplings to quarks with natural flavor conservation • Fields: • Scalar Potential : • Spectrum: Couplings:

  26. Corrections to • Colored scalars can change up to 25% the SM result • QCD corrections to the scalar contribution are about • 10%

  27. Conclusions • Theoretical predictions for the Higgs boson at • LHC are in good shape. • QCD corrections are known at the NNLO level. • The theoretical error is at the level of 10%. • EW corrections start to be important. We have it for: Bredenstein, Denner, Dittmaier, Weber (06) Ciccolini, Denner, Dittmaier (07) • are affected by NP. We must be • prepared for any kind of NP that can modify the • gluon-fusion Higgs production cross section or • the decays in two photons.
