Search For New Physics at the TeVatron

This article discusses the search for new physics phenomena at the Tevatron collider, including supersymmetry, extra dimensions, extended gauge theories, and Higgs bosons. It covers upgrades to the CDF and DØ detectors, performance of the Tevatron in terms of luminosity, and specific searches for trileptons, stop and sbottom particles, and generic squarks and gluinos.

  1. Search For New Physics at the TeVatron Jean-François Grivaz LAL-Orsay http://www-cdf.fnal.gov/physics/exotic/exotic.html http://www-d0.fnal.gov/Run2Physics/WWW/results.htm Saclay 11-April-2005

  2. Chicago  CDF DØ Tevatron p source Main Injector & Recycler The Tevatron at Run II • New Main Injector • + Recycler • Higher energy • (1.96 TeV vs 1.8 TeV) • => Higher cross sections • (~30% for the top) • Higher antiprotonintensity • 6x6  36x36 bunches • (3.5 s  396 ns) • antiproton “recycler” • => Higher luminosity Saclay 11-April-2005

  3. The CDF and DØ upgrades • New tracking: silicon and • fibers in 2T magnetic field • Upgraded muon system • New DAQ and new trigger • (commissioning displaced track) • New silicon and drift chamber • Upgraded calorimeter (plug) • and muon system • New DAQ and new trigger, • (displaced track trigger) … and new software (C++, OO) Saclay 11-April-2005

  4. Luminosity performance In 2004: • Peak luminosity: • 4 - 8 1031 cm-2 s-1 • Weekly delivered: • 8 - 16 pb-1 • Data taking efficiency: • 80 - 90% • Physics quality data: • up to 390 pb-1 • analyzed as of Moriond-05 1032 Saclay 11-April-2005

  5. Searches for New Phenomena Supersymmetry: (m)SUGRA, GMSB, AMSB Extra Dimensions: large, warped Extended Gauge Theories: Z’, W’, leptoquarks Higgs bosons: SUSY, SM In back-up slides: RPV, excited leptons, doubly-charged Higgses Not covered : TeV–1 ED, Technicolor, Little Higgs but same signatures as e.g., LED, SM-Higgs, RS-gravitons Real exotics (e.g.monopoles) Saclay 11-April-2005

  6. Supersymmetry Saclay 11-April-2005

  7. (m)SUGRA m0 m1/2 tan() A0 sign() Two main search streams at the Tevatron: • Squarks and gluinos multijets + missing ET • large production cross sections • large experimental backgrounds • Electroweak gauginos with leptonic decays (Trileptons) • low production cross sections • typically low leptonic branching ratios • clean experimental signature Saclay 11-April-2005

  8. Trileptons (I) • Arise from chargino-neutralino • associated production • “Golden” SUSY signature but: • - low cross sections ( BR) • - soft leptons • - taus(esp. at large tan) • Needs large integrated luminosity • Combine various final states (Also decays via W/Z exchange) DØ analysis based on 325 pb1 Combines eel, el, el, l, l and same sign dimuon final states Addresses “just beyond LEP”mSUGRAwith low mass sleptons Saclay 11-April-2005

  9. Trileptons (II) • Two isolated (rather soft) e or  or  • Require some Missing ET •  channel-dependent cuts (e.g. anti Z) • Two same sign muons, or • An isolated third track (no e or  ID) • Main backgrounds: WW, WZ, W, a bit of bb • Altogether: 4 events observed vs 3.9  0.8 expected   3rd (e) Saclay 11-April-2005

  10. Trileptons (III) Now probing “beyond LEP” territory: m()  116 GeV for m(slepton) m() Saclay 11-April-2005

  11. Stop and sbottom • CDF has searched for charged massive particles in 53 pb1 • appear as slow moving (TOF) high pT muons • result interpreted for (meta)stable stop •  m(stop) 108 GeV (isolated) or 95 GeV (non-isolated) • CDF has searched for sbottoms • in gluino decays (156 pb1) • assumes sb1 much lighter than • all other squarks (large tan) • gluino  sb1 b •  4 b-jets + Missing ET • for gluino pairs • the selection requires at least • one b-tag, no isolated lepton • With 2 b-tags: 4 vs 2.6  0.7 expected Saclay 11-April-2005

  12. Generic squarks & gluinos (I) • Strong production of: • sq-sqbar • sq-sq • sq-gl • gl-gl • Main decay modes: • m_sq < m_gl : sq  q • m_gl < m_sq : gl  qq • but also cascades via  or 2 In 310 pb1, DØ has searched along three mSUGRA lines: minimum squark mass m_squark = m_gluino gluinos only (tan = 3, A0 = 0,   0), with scan over m1/2 Saclay 11-April-2005

  13. Generic squarks & gluinos (II) • Example of selection cuts for light squarks: • at least two high pT jets • isolated lepton veto • Missing ET should not be • along or opposite to a jet • Sum of jet pT 250 GeV • Missing ET  175 GeV • 12 events selected vs. 12.8 5.4expected • Main backgrounds left: • (Z  ) + jets • (W ) + jets • QCD negligible QCD m_squark = m_gluino : 3 jets + MET gluinos only: 4 jets + MET Saclay 11-April-2005

  14. Generic squarks & gluinos (III) • Results along the three selected lines: • Minimum squark mass: • m_squark > 318 GeV • Equal squark and gluino • masses: • m_squark = m_gluino • > 333 GeV • (This corner is beyond the indirect LEP exclusion) • Gluinos only: • M_gluino > 233 GeV Saclay 11-April-2005

  15. GMSB with  NLSP (I) Remember the CDF ee + Missing ET event ?…  + gravitino Inclusive search for   Missing ET by both CDF / DØ • Photon = electron without track • Photon ET  13 / 20 GeV • Missing ET > 45 / 40 GeV • Mild topological cuts • Main backgrounds: • EM-jets (or real QCD photons) • + fake Missing ET • electron + photon • + real Missing ET • All determined from the data CDF : 0 vs 0.3  0.1 expected DØ : 2 vs 3.7  0.6 expected Saclay 11-April-2005

  16. GMSB with  NLSP (II) • Interpretation within mGMSB • with: • N = 1 • Mmessenger = 2, •   0, • tan = 15 (aka “Snowmass slope”) • Signal dominated by • chargino-neutralino production Individual limits: m  108 GeV (DØ) (beyond LEP) m  93 GeV (CDF) First CDF-DØ NP combination: m  114 GeV & m  209 GeV Saclay 11-April-2005

  17. Charged Massive Stable Particles In Anomaly Mediated SUSY Breaking (AMSB), the chargino can be almost degenerate with a wino-LSP. It will then appear as a long-lived charged WIMP. DØ has searched for pair production of such charged massive stable particles in 390 pb1. They appear as slowly moving high pT muons, and are identified using the timing information of the scintillator counters of the muon detector. m  174 GeV (beyond LEP) Saclay 11-April-2005

  18. “Superjets” ? CDF @ Run I observed an excess of W + 2/3 jet events with  1 jet “double-tagged” (Secondary vertex + Soft lepton) 13 vs 4.4  0.6 expected An interpretation in terms of light sbottom + RPV () has been suggested (not by CDF) DØ has searched for such an anomaly in 150 pb-1 of Run II data and did not find any. Let’s wait and see what CDF will find… Saclay 11-April-2005

  19. Bs  In SM, tiny BR ~ 3.5 109 (and 25 times smaller for Bd) But in SUSY, a (tan)6 factor could lead to an enhancement by as much as three orders of magnitude Select dimuons originating from displaced vertices, and look inside a mass window: BR limits (95% CL): 3.7 10-7 (DØ 300 pb-1) and 7.5 10-7 (CDF 171 pb-1) Close to getting relevant Saclay 11-April-2005

  20. Extra Dimensions Saclay 11-April-2005

  21. Models of Extra Dimensions • Two classes of models considered: • ADD • 2 to 7 large (sub mm) EDs • gravity propagates • freely in the bulk • KK excitations • cannot be resolved • RS • one 5th (infinite) ED • with warped geometry • gravity is localized • on a brane other than the SM • KK excitations • have spacings of order TeV Saclay 11-April-2005

  42. Final remarks The Higgs is not the whole story… With a data sample at least 20 to 40 times larger than at Run I, collected at higher energy with improved detectors, there is a lot of beautiful (but difficult) physics to be done: • W and top masses, top properties, single top production • B physics: Bs mixing, rare Bs decays, Bs and Lb lifetimes • Exploration of new territory (SUSY, LED…): • already well underway • we may be lucky… With a steadily improving collider performance there are still a number of years and fb–1 ahead of us for frontier physics at the Tevatron.
