To generate particle masses in an SU(2)×U(1) gauge invariant way: introduce a doublet of scalar fields Φ=(Φ+
Φ0 ) with 0|Φ0|0 ̸= 0
LS =DµΦ†DµΦ−µ2Φ†Φ−λ(Φ†Φ)2 v = (−µ2/λ)1/2 = 246 GeV ⇒ three d.o.f. for MW± and MZ
For fermion masses, use same Φ:
LYuk=−fe(¯ e, ¯ ν)LΦeR + ...
The residual degree corresponds to the spin–zero Higgs particle, H.
H =2λv2, gH3 = 3 M2
Hv , ...
v , gHVV = 2 M2
Vv
Since v is known, the only free parameter in the SM is MH (or λ).
Padova 4/05/2011 The Higgs: status and perspectives – A. Djouadi – p.2/27
We know a lot about the new H boson From its decays into ữ’s, Z’s & W’s Couples to mass as expected from SM Higgs Spin/parity checks consistent with JP = 0+ Same particle mass in decays to ữ’s and Z’s
> An important open question is whether the [same] new particle also couples to fermions, and in particular to down-type fermions, since the current measurements mainly constrain the couplings to the up-type top quark. > The determination of the couplings to down-type fermions requires direct measurement of the corresponding Higgs boson decays.
