Goals of iggs Physics iggs Search = search for dynamics of SU(2) U(1) breaking Discover the iggs boson Measure its couplings and probe mass generation for gauge bosons and fermions Fermion masses arise from Yukawa couplings via Φ (0, v+ 2 ) L Yukawa = Γ i j d = f Q L i Φd j R Γ i j d m f f f ( 1 + v d R i Φ Q j ) L +... = Γ i j d v + 2 d i L d j R +... Test SM prediction: f f iggs coupling strength = m f /v Observation of f f Yukawa coupling is no proof that v.e.v exists Dieter Zeppenfeld j j production 1

iggs coupling to gauge bosons Kinetic energy term of iggs doublet field: [ (D µ Φ) (D µ Φ) = 1 ( gv ) 2W 2 µ µ + µ+ W µ + 1 2 2 W, Z mass generation: m 2 W = ( gv 2 WW and ZZ couplings are generated ) 2, m 2 Z = ( g 2 +g 2 )v 2 4 ( g 2 + g 2) ] ( v 2 Z µ Z µ 1 + 4 v ) 2 iggs couples propotional to mass: coupling strength = 2 m 2 V /v g2 v within SM Measurement of WW and ZZ couplings is essential for identification of as agent of symmetry breaking: Without a v.e.v. such a trilinear coupling is impossible at tree level Dieter Zeppenfeld j j production 2

ow to distinguish VBF and gluon fusion? W, Z vs. W, Z (a) Double real corrections to gg can fake VBF = we need to investigate the phenomenology of these two processes and understand the differences that can be exploited to distinguish between gluon fusion and VBF = derive cuts to be applied to enhance VBF with respect to gluon fusion. Measure WW and ZZ coupling = derive cuts to be applied to enhance gluon fusion with respect to VBF. Measure effective gg coupling or tt coupling Dieter Zeppenfeld j j production 15
