Full textThe static potential in the confinement ``phase'' of the SU(2) Higgs model is studied. In particular, the observation of the screening (called {\em string breaking}) of the static quarks by the dynamical light quarks leading to the formation of two static-light mesons was not observed before my work in non-Abelian gauge theories. The tool that I employ is lattice gauge simulation. The observable from whic h the spectrum of the Hamiltonian in presence of two static quarks can be extracted, is a matrix correlation whose elements are constructed not only from string-type states represented by Wilson loops (like in pure gauge theories). Additional matrix elements representing transitions from string-type to meson-type states and the propagation of meson-type states are taken into account. From this basis of states it is possible to extract the ground state and first excited state static potentials employing a variational method. The crossing of these two energy levels in the string breaking region is clearly visible and the inadequacy of the Wilson loops alone can be demonstrated. I also address the question of the lattice artifacts. For this purpose lines of constant physics in the confinement ``phase'' of the model have to be constructed. This problem has only partially been solved. Nevertheless it is possible to show that the static potentials have remarkable scaling properties under a variation of the lattice spacing by a factor two and are almost independent of the quartic Higgs coupling.

Full textThe subject of this thesis is the evaluation of the discovery potential of the ATLAS detector at the LHC for the SM Higgs boson in vector boson fusion (VBF) production and a subsequent decay into a τ-lepton pair (H->ττ). This is one of the most promising discovery channels in the low mass range, which is the mass range favored from precision measurements of the electroweak interaction. The characteristic VBF topology, which consists of two jets in the forward regions of the detector and the Higgs boson decay products in the central region, provides a unique signature allowing the suppression of background. In addition, since VBF is a purely electroweak process, no QCD activity is expected and thus no central jets are expected. This allows the central jet veto cut application to further reject background processes. A cut-oriented analysis was used, focusing on the central jet veto cut optimization. The main objective was to investigate the Higgs boson ATLAS discovery potential with an integrated luminosity of 30 fb-1 in the mass range mH=(115,140) GeV, for an LHC energy at the center of mass of 14 TeV. After the application of all cuts, an excess above 5σ of signal signifcance was found for the mass range mH=(115,125). In H->ττ decay channel, transverse missing energy (ETmiss) resolution is of high importance since it affects directly the resolution of the Higgs boson mass. This was the initial motivation for performing and presenting in this thesis a calorimetric commissioning study based on ETmiss quantities, focused on the electronics noise ETmiss contribution, measured with cosmics data of the period fall 2008. A Gaussian behavior of noise in all liquid argon calorimeters was found, whereas a region of non-Gaussian tails in scintillating tile calorimeter due to a coherent noise, was high-lighted. For the latter, a new noise model was tested using a double Gaussian parameterization resulting in a more realistic description

Full textNo obstant, el Model Estàndard té alguns problemes que són difícils de solucionar. Aquest tipus de problemes troben solució en les teories Supersimètriques (SUSY). El Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) és l'extensió supersimètrica més simple del Model Estàndard. El sector de Higgs del MSSM està format per 2 doblets de Higgs que donen 5 bosons de Higgs després del trencament espontani de simetria: 3 bosons neutres (h, H, A) i un parell carregat (H+ ,H-).
El descobriment d'un bosó de Higgs carregat (H±) seria una senyal clara de nova física més enllà del Model Estàndard. Els bosons de Higgs carregats es podrien produir en grans quantitats al LHC (Large Hadron Collider) en el decaiment del quark top. En aquesta tesi, la sensitivitat del detector ATLAS en condicions de baixa lluminositat al descobriment del Higgs carregat és estudiada en detall fent ús del canal: amb i .
Després d'aplicar talls cinemàtics a les diferents mostres (senyal i fons) d'esdeveniments, el fons més rellevant és el format per amb un bosó W desintegrant-se en tn i l'altre desintegrant-se hadrònicament donant un parell de jets lleugers. Aquest fons va poder ser reduït imposant un tall a la massa transversa i en el moment transvers del leptó t: degut a la polarizació del t, en els casos en que el t decau hadrònicament en una partícula carregada, aquells jets de t que provenen de la desintegració del H± tenen un moment més gran que els que provenen de la desintegració del W±.
El potencial de descoberta del detector ATLAS per a un Higgs carregat produït en la desintegració del quark top ja va ser estudiat en ATLAS amb W± desintegrant-se leptònicament (mnm o ene). Els estudis de significància presentats en aquesta tesi completen els anàlisis efectuats en el pla del MSSM (mA, tanb) per la descoberta del Higgs carregat. En la regió fins ara no coberta al voltant de tanb 5-10, s'obté una significància superior a 5s per 10 fb-1 de dades (que correspon a un any funcionant a baixa lluminositat) amb el canal estudiat en aquest treball. Amb això, la combinació els estudis de potencial de descoberta dels detectors ATLAS i CMS pels diferents bosons de Higgs (h, H, A, H+, H-) cobreixen tot l'espai (mA, tanb) del MSSM.
A més a més, una característica important d'aquest canal és permet mesurar la massa. La massa del Higgs cargado del MSSM ha sigut obtinguda a partir de la distribució de la massa transversa mitjançant un mètode de màxima versemblança. L'error associat a aquesta mesura està completament dominat pels efectes sistemàtics i la precisió relativa obtinguda amb aquest mètode per la mesura de la massa és d'un 4% per una lluminositat integrada de 10 fb-1.
La observación de uno o varios bosones de Higgs es fundamental para entender la rotura espontánea de simetría del Modelo Estándar (SM). En este modelo, un doblete escalar es el que proporciona la rotura espontánea de simetría dando lugar a un bosón de Higgs.
Sin embargo, el Modelo Estándar tiene algunos problemas difíciles de solucionar. Esta clase de problemas hallan solución en teorías Supersimétricas (SUSY). El Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) es la extensión supersimétrica más simple del Modelo Estándar. El sector de Higgs del MSSM está formado por dos dobletes de Higgs dando lugar a 5 bosones de Higgs después de la rotura espontánea de simetría: 3 bosones neutros (h, H, A) y un par cargado (H+, H-).
El descubrimiento del bosón de Higgs cargado (H±) sería una señal clara de nueva física más allá del Modelo Estándar. Los bosones de Higgs cargados podrían producirse copiosamente en el LHC (Large Hadron Collider) en la desintegración del quark top. En esta tesis, la sensitividad del detector ATLAS en condiciones de baja luminosidad al descubrimento del Higgs cargado es estudiada en detalle mediante el canal: con y .
Después de aplicar cortes cinemáticos a las distintas muestras de señal y fondo, los sucesos de fondo de tipo con un bosón W desintegrándose en tn y el otro desintegrándose hadrónicamente són todavía importantes. Este fondo pudo ser reducido imponiendo cortes en la masa transversa del H± y en el momento transverso del leptón t: debido a la polarización del t, cuando éste se desintegra hadrónicamente en una partícula cargada, los jets de t que provienen de la desintegración del H± tienen un momento superior a los que provienen de la desintegración del W±.
El potencial de descubrimiento del detector ATLAS para un Higgs cargado producido en la desintegración del quark top ya fue estudiado en ATLAS con W± desintegrándose leptónicamente (mnm o ene). Los estudios de significancia presentados en esta tesis completan los análisis efectuados en el plano del MSSM (mA, tanb) para el descubrimiento del Higgs cargado. En la región no cubierta hasta ahora alrededor de tanb 5-10, se obtiene una significancia superior a 5s para 10 fb-1 de datos (que corresponde a un año funcionando a baja luminosidad) con el canal estudiado en esta tesis. Es por eso que la combinación de los estudios de potencial de descubrimiento de los detectores ATLAS y CMS para los distintos bosones de Higgs (h, H, A, H+, H-) cubren todo el espacio (mA, tanb) del MSSM.
Además, una característica importante de este canal es que permite medir la masa. La masa del Higgs cargado del MSSM se ha obtenido a partir de la distribución de la masa transversa utilizando un método de máxima verosimilitud. El error asociado a esta medida está completamente dominado por los efectos sistemáticos y la precisión relativa para la medida de la masa que se obtiene con este método es de un 4% para una luminosidad integrada de 10 fb-1.
The observation of one or several Higgs bosons will be of capital importance in order to understand the electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism. In the Standard Model (SM), one scalar doublet is responsible for the electroweak symmetry breaking giving as a result only one Higgs boson.
However, the SM has serious drawbacks which are difficult to solve within the theory itself. This problems find a solution in Supersymmetric (SUSY) models. The Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is the simplest SUSY extension of the SM. The MSSM Higgs sector is made of two Higgs doublets which lead to five Higgs particles after electroweak symmetry breaking: three neutral (h, H, A) and a charged pair (H+ ,H-).
The discovery of the MSSM charged Higgs (H±) would be a clear sign of new physics beyond the SM. MSSM charged Higgs could be copiously produced at the LHC (large Hadron Collider) in top decays. In the present thesis, the sensitivity of the ATLAS detector to the discovery of the charged Higgs in the low luminosity running conditions is studied in detail in the channel with and .
After event selection, the most relevant remaining background is with one W boson decaying into tn and the other decaying hadronically in two light jets. That background was further reduced by imposing a cut on the transverse mass and a harder cut on the t jet transverse momentum: due to t polarization effects, in one-prong t hadronic decays, t jets from H± decay are harder than the ones produced in W± decay.
The discovery potential of the ATLAS detector for a charged Higgs produced in top decays was already studied in ATLAS with the W± decaying leptonically (mnm or ene). The significance studies presented in this thesis complete the (mA, tanb) survey for the MSSM charged Higgs. Furthermore, in the so far uncovered 5-10 tanb region a significance greater than 5s is obtained for 10 fb-1 of data (corresponding to one year of running at low luminosity) with the channel studied in this work. Therefore, the discovery potential studies of ATLAS standalone and ATLAS+CMS combined for any of the different MSSM Higgs bosons (h, H, A, H+, H-) cover the whole MSSM (mA, tanb) space.
Moreover, an important aspect of this channel is that it gives the possibility to measure the mass. The light MSSM charged Higgs mass was obtained from the transverse mass distribution (since in the channel there is no resonance peak) by means of a maximum likelihood method and the expected precision on this mass was also given. The error was completely dominated by systematics and a precision close to 4% could be achieved for an integrated luminosity of 10 fb-1.

Full textI have prepared my PhD within ATLAS group of the CEnter of Particule Physics of Marseille at the Aix-Marseille University. For two years before the star-up of the LHC, a large effort towards the detector commissioning was undertaken by the ATLAS collaboration. I contributes to the commissioning of the electromagnetic (EM) calorimeter. To verify its performance, I studied the first cosmic data taken in 2006 which allowed the first in situ analysis of dead channels, energy reconstruction and detector response uniformity. This participation to the commissioning has continued with the study of the single beam data recorded during the first week of LHC operation (sept. 2008). The understanding of the detector in operation is crucial in the search for evidence of new physics. Expanding on my expertise of the EM calorimeter, I have focused my physices analysis on the promising discovery potential of new physics at LHC via the di-electron decay of a heavy gauge boson in the early LHC data
