A search for the Standard Model Higgs boson via its decay to tau leptons and W bosons at the ATLAS detector

Boddy, Christopher January 2013 (has links)
Understanding the origin or Electroweak symmetry breaking within the Standard Model was a key motivation for the construction of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiment at CERN. This thesis presents a search for evidence of Higgs boson production in the 4.7 fb−1 of collision data recorded at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV at the ATLAS detector during 2011. This search is focused on signal events in which a Higgs boson is produced in the mass range 100 < mH < 180 GeV/c2 and subsequently decays to a pair of W bosons or a pair of tau leptons to final states with one hadronically decaying tau lepton and one light lepton. After an event selection criteria has been applied, the number of events in this data sample is consistent with the total background estimate and an upper limit is placed on the SM Higgs boson production rate at 95% confidence level. In addition, the prospects for measuring the SM Higgs coupling strength to tau leptons with the associated Higgs production channels and the full LHC dataset are also presented.

Search for neutral Higgs bosons decaying into the leptonic-hadronic di-tau final state in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with the ATLAS detector

Friedrich, Felix 27 October 2017 (has links)
A search for the neutral Higgs bosons predicted by the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is presented. The analysis is performed on data from proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of sqrt{s}=8 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider recorded by the ATLAS detector. The data were collected in 2012, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb-1 and represent the full 8 TeV dataset. This search is performed in the tau-tau final state, with one tau lepton decaying leptonically and the other hadronically. The analysis is optimized in three categories, addressing low-mass Higgs bosons which are accompanied by a bottom quark induced jet or not and high-mass Higgs bosons. No deviations from Standard Model predictions are observed, and therefore no evidences of new Higgs bosons are found. Exclusion limits are set on the cross-section times branching fraction of the Higgs bosons and for parameters m_A and tan{beta} of MSSM benchmark scenarios. / In dieser Arbeit wird die Suche nach neutralen Higgs-Bosonen im Rahmen des Minimalen Supersymmetrischen Standardmodells (MSSM) vorgestellt. Die Analyse basiert auf dem kompletten Datensatz von Proton-Proton-Kollisionen des Large Hadron Colliders, LHC, die mit dem ATLAS-Detektor bei einer Schwerpunktsenergie von sqrt{s}=8 TeV im Jahr 2012 aufgenommen wurden. Die Daten entsprechen einer Luminosität 20.3 fb-1. Die Suche fokussiert auf den Tau-Tau Endzustand, wobei ein Tau-Lepton hadronisch zerfällt und das andere leptonisch, entweder in ein Elektron oder in ein Muon. Die Analyse wurde in drei Kategorien optimiert, um sowohl für Higgs-Bosonen im niedrigen Massenbereich von 90-200 GeV als auch im hohen Massenbereich von 200 GeV bis 1 TeV sensitiv zu sein. Der niedrige Massenbereich wurde dabei in zwei Unterkategorien geteilt, entsprechend der Anwesenheit bzw. Abwesenheit von zusätzlichen, durch b-Quarks induzierten Jets, um die Empfindlichkeit für spezielle Higgs-Boson-Produktionsmodi zu erhöhen. Im Rahmen dieser Analyse wurden keine Hinweise auf neue Higgs-Bosonen gefunden und daher Ausschlussgrenzen auf den Wirkungsquerschnitt x Verzweigungsverhältnis gesetzt. Ebenfalls wurden die Resultate in MSSM-Benchmark-Szenarien interpretiert.
