CP violation in Higgs sector

  • CP violation arises naturally in the three generation SM (Phase in the CKM

matrix)

  • The CP violation has been first measured in neutral K-meson decays.

[J. H. Christenson, J. W. Cronin, V. L. Fitch, and R. Turlay , Phys. Rev. Lett.13, 138 (1964)]

  • CP non-conservation provides a key ingredient for cosmological baryogenesis
  • It is possible to have CP violation in Multi-Higgs models
  • MSSM contains an extended Higgs sector : may realize CP violation

General frame work

  • Higgs potential of the MSSM is invariant under CP at the tree level
  • Two CP-even neutral Higgs bosons :h0, H0 (MH0 > Mh0)
  • One CP-odd neutral Higgs boson :A0
  • One charged Higgs boson :H±
  • MA, tan β, µ and At,b control the MSSM Higgs spectrum
  • The tree level CP invariance of the MSSM Higgs potential may be violated

sizeably by loop effects involving soft CP-violating trilinear couplings At,b [ A.

CP violation in MSSM

  • After radiative corrections to the tree level Higgs potential:

CP violation induced through loop effects via 3 generation sfermion and gaugino mass parameters

  • From the one loop effective potential Higgs boson mass matrix is calculated

CP violation in MSSM Higgs sector

  • In CP conserving MSSM: MSP = 0: 2 CP-even h, H and one CP-odd A.
  • Diag(M 2

H1, M 2 H2, M 2 H3) = OTM 2 NO , with MH1 < MH2 < MH3

  • After diagonalization the Physical mass eigenstates are mixed states of CP,

H1,2,3 have undefined CP properties.

  • To get sizeable CP violation, large | µ |, | At,b | and large sin φCP

are needed

  • mA no longer a physical parameter, but the mH± can be used as a physical

parameter

  • Elements of matrix O are similar to cos α and sin α in the CP-conserving case.

But 3rd row and column are zero in the non-diagonal elements in such a case

  • Large mH± implies H1 → Hsm

Implications of CP violating phases on Higgs searches

  • In CPC MSSM, we have access only two neutral Higgses h, H in Higgsstrahlung

/WW fusion process

  • In CPV MSSM, the three neutral Higgs mass eigenstates Hi (i=1,2,3) do not

have well defined CP quantum numbers.

  • Each of them can be produced in the Higgs-Strahlung process: (e+e− → ZHi)

and/or in the WW fusion (e+e− → Hiνe ¯ νe)

  • Also in pair (e+e− → HiHj(i = j))
  • The relative rates depend of the choice of the parameters describing the

CP-odd/even mising. [A.Akeroyd & A. Arhrib, PRD64,095018 (2001)]

  • Our parameters are fixed as:

Set A:

  • MQ =

  • MQ =

Light Higgs window : Scenario I

  • LEP can not exclude the light Higgs mass in these two regions of parameter

space:

  • ΦCP = 90◦, tan β ∼ 4 − 5,

MH± ∼ 125 − 140 GeV, MH1

< ∼ 60 GeV

  • ΦCP = 60◦, tan β ∼ 2 − 3,

MH± ∼ 105 − 130GeV, MH1

< ∼ 40 GeV

  • Suppressed H1ZZ coupling and also the H1t¯

t.

  • Tevatron also can not probe this because of suppressed W/ZH1 coupling.
  • No hope at the LHC through t¯

tH1 and W/ZH1.

  • Large H±WH1 coupling ⇒ large Br (H± → H1W ±)

Summary

  • CP violation in the MSSM Higgs sector can be generated at loop level leading

to very interesting phenomenology in the MSSM Higgs sector

  • LEP-2 still allows very light Higgs in the CP violating MSSM Higgs sector, due

to strong suppression of the H1ZZ coupling

  • No hope from Tevatron and LHC either through conventioanl channel:

H1W ±W ∓ and H1t¯ t couplings are suppressed in the same parameter space

  • At LHC the light Higgs window scenario may be closed through:

– pp → t¯ t → (bW +)(¯ bH−) → (bℓν)(bH1W −) → (bℓν)(bb¯ b)(jj) – pp → H±H1 → (H1W ±) + (b¯ b) → (b¯ bℓν) + (b¯ b)
