Why search for H at Tevatron →γγ ?

➢ Higgs boson is undiscovered ! ➢ Clean signature. ➢ Current direct experimental search + indirect constraint prefer light Higgs boson. ➢ Contribute to the Tevatron Standard Model Higgs combination, especially in the intermediate mass region around 125 GeV. ➢ Golden channel for the discovery of Standard Model Higgs at LHC.

H → γγ

  • Standard Model Higgs:
  • Gluon fusion
  • Associated production
  • Vector boson fusion
  • Examine the inclusive di-

photon dataset ( +X) γγ to search for the high mass resonance.

Event selection

  • Select 2 photons

Transverse energy ET > 25 GeV

Isolated in calorimeter

Isolated in tracker

Energy shower shape consistent with photon

Backgrounds

  • Reducible background

– Z/ *

ee γ → , both electrons are misidentified as photons, estimated with Geant Monte Carlo.

– Non-

γγ ( +jet,jet+jet), when γ the jet(s) is(are) misidentified as photon(s), estimated from data.

  • Irreducible background –

direct γγ

– estimated from data.

  • Using ONN=0.75 as the boundary

to separate the events into 4 categories:

Npp: both pass the ONN>0.75

Npf: first passes, second fails

Nfp: vice-versa

Nff: both fail

Direct photon pair production cross section

  • Check the validity of the predictions of perturbative quantum

chromodynamics (pQCD) and soft-gluon resummation methods implemented in theoretical calculations.

  • Dominant background for the H

→ γγ search

– The sensitivity could be enhanced if other kinematic information,

e.g. the di-photon transverse momentum, included.

Conclusions

➔ We presented the measurements of single and double differential cross sections for

direct photon pair production:

Show necessity to include higher order corrections beyond NLO and resummation to all

  • rders of soft and collinear initial state gluons to describe di-photon production.

Direct production (DDP) – γγ irreducible background

  • Challenge to model by theoretical

prediction so far, each generator has its own deficit

– pythia: LO + parton shower – diphox: NLO, except the gg box

contribution (LO)

– resbos: NLO + Resummation of

collinear/soft ISR gluons + ~NLO single fragmentation

  • However, in the high mass region

(Mγγ>50GeV), Mγγ spectrum agrees reasonably very well between diphox and resbos.
