Titre | Recherche de nouvelle physique au LHC a partir d'une theorie des champs effective pour le boson de Higgs |
Résumé | /Search for New Physics at the LHC using Higgs Effective Field Theory/The discovery at the LHC of a scalar boson, the properties of which are strongly similar to the ones of the Standard Model Higgs boson, certainly indicates that the main actor of the electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism was found. However, many beyond-the-Standard Model theories predict the existence of such a similar particle coming from a richer sector. Measuring the properties of the discovered scalar will tell us whether or not it is the same particle as the one predicted by the Standard Model. To this aim we use a model-independent approach through a Higgs Effective Field Theory (EFT) framework to parametrize the deviations of its couplings to matter from the Standard Model. We focus on a Higgs EFT framework based on a dimension-6 effective Lagrangian, including both CP-even and CP-odd operators. We first attempt at putting constraints on a part of the effective Wilson coefficients relevant for Higgs physics at the LHC, using the latest Higgs rates data from the Run-I of the ATLAS and CMS experiments, as well as electroweak precision data from LEP, SLC and Tevatron. We show that the current data is able to significantly constrain the CP-even and some CP-odd operators of the effective Lagrangian. We then move on to the study of possible exotic Higgs decays, that can only be generated as a consequence of the effective dimension-6 operators (generated from unknown new physics) and not from within the Standard Model alone, and derive upper bounds on these operators given the present experimental limits. Finally we analyze some of the limitations of the effective approach by comparing predictions on some Higgs processes at tree-level in EFT with respect to predictions at tree and 1-loop level on the same processes computed in a simple class of Standard Model extensions known as "Two-Higgs doublet models. |
