1 ingle Color-Octet calar Production at the LHC : Factorization and Resummation A. Idilbi, C. Kim and T. Mehen, ArXiv: [hep-ph] Chul Kim Duke University

2 Motivation calar ector in tandard Model (M) All the matter fields discovered so far are fermions. Hidden local symmetry in Nature requires pontaneous ymmetry Breaking Mechanism - Usually the potential is expressed in terms of scalar fields. The calar ector has not been tested experimentally. V ( φ) λ φ 4 = m λ Why not colored scalar particles?

3 Various NP Models predicting Color-Octet calar Color-octet scalar fields arose in GUTs. Model Hidden color symmetry breaking U(3) U(3) U(3) 1 C - Chiral Color Model Frampton and Glashow, Top Color Hill, 1991 Leptoquark Model U(5) Adjoint Perez et al., 008 Popov et al., 005, based on Pati-alam Unification U(4) U() U(1) U (3) U () U(1) V L c L U(5)-Type II eesaw Dorsner and Mocioiu, 008 Upper mass bound 440 TeV 50 TeV - Compared to GUT scale, surprisingly light Color-Octet calars UY - calar gluon (MRM) Plehn and Tait, 008

4 Manohar-Wise Model Manohar and Wise, Generic NP model satisfying the constraints of MFV Minimal Flavor Violation (MFV) Hypothesis If we expect new physics at a few TeV scale, - Generic flavor-violating interactions (Ex: FCNC) at a few TeV scale are not supported by experiments. - M Yukawa couplings should be only sources for quark flavor symmetry breaking. U, D U, D λij gij - Allowed U(3) c U() W U(1) Y representations for scalar fields with Yukawa couplings to M fermions consistent with MFV are 1) (1, ) 1/ : M Higgs doublet ) (8, ) 1/ : Another possible representation in quark Yukawa sector. - Yukawa ector for Color-Octet calar L Yukawa = η g + = U U D A A ij UR iqlj ηdgij DRi QLj H.C., T The same coupling as M

5 Color-Octet calar Production at the LHC Gluon fusion process gives a dominant contribution ( s = 14 TeV) - ingle Production : loop induced processes, depends on new physics parameters - Pair Production : Tree level process, Model-independent QCD Lagrangian for color-octet scalar fields LQCD, = ( D ) m a* ab b a* a

6 Constraints from Tevatron experiments ( s = 1.96 TeV) are weak. - Quark-antiquark initial state contributions are dominant. - From the comparison of measurement of 4b-jets, m 00 GeV suggested. Gerbush et al., (Under the assumption bb is a dominant decay channel) As mass increases, the single production becomes dominant. gg X gg X m < 1 TeV : Pair production > ingle production m > 1 TeV : Pair production < ingle production Gresham and Wise, 007

7 Factorization for the single production Kinematics Approximation to the partonic threshold region ( z= 1 ) ŝ - Gluon PDF is dominant in small x region ( ). m τ= m / s 1 - Color-octet scalar field can be described as a heavy field to do only soft interactions ( ). Three eparate cales m (1- z) μ m μ m (1 z) Λ m H QCD P Virtual Real & Virtual PDFs

8 Description of the factorization theorem τ σ( pp X ) τh ( m, μ ) ( m (1 z), μ ) F(, μ ) z F F F H( m, μ ) H τ F(, μf ) z μ H m ( (1 z), μ ) μf μ - Resummation of large logarithms such as ln μ H is necessary. μ

9 Factorization formula can be applicable to any other new physics model = Cm (, μ ) All the information on short distance interactions including EW/new physics interactions. - Long distance strong interactions like collinear or soft interactions. Precise Results enable us to extract correct information on unknown parameters. - New physics parameters - Better mass bounds if we do not see

10 Large K-factor for the single production Production Mechanism is similar to Higgs - Factorization formalism is similar - A difference is a strong interaction of color-octet scalar particle. trong Corrections to Higgs production are Huge Catani et. al, 003

11 Where do large color corrections come from? - Large log resummed effects at the threshold region ln(1 z) Ex) α..., 1 z As mass increases, the corrections become larger. - π -enhancement in timelike process (1) μ μ Ex) C ( Q, μ) α ln α ln + π Q iε Q π - Higgs production : -enhancement contribution is dominant. Ahrens, Becher, Neubert, and Yang, Color-Octet Production : more complicated. Timelike and spacelike processes are mixed. Resummation effects are larger than Higgs ( m m ) H

24 Conclusion The single color-octet production at the LHC can be factorized and described successfully when CET applied. ystematic resummation enables us to calculate universal K factor with NLL accuracy, which increases the cross section -4 times. The large corrections arising from the timelike process gives an additional 0% enhancement. caling dependences up to NLL accuracy are not small, but they can be reduced significantly with the higher order corrections.
