Diffractive Higgs production at the LHC 1
We review recent issues concerning exclusive Higgs production at the LHC, and related processes at the Tevatron and HERA. In spite of the small predicted cross section the exclusive Higgs production, pp → p +H + p, has the following advantages: (a) The mass of the Higgs boson can be measured with high accuracy (with mass resolution σ(M) ∼ 1 GeV) by measuring the missing mass to the forward outg...
متن کاملDiffractive Higgs Production at the Lhc
The first proposed model for pp → p+H + p, the Bialas-Landshoff (BL) [1] model, is based on a summation of two-gluon exchange Feynman graphs coupled to Higgs production by the top quark loop. The non-perturbative character of diffraction at the proton vertices relies on the introduction of “non-perturbative” gluon propagators which are modeled on the description of soft total cross-sections wit...
متن کاملPhoton Production at the Lhc
We review the lastest results on photon production at the LHC by the ATLAS and CMS experiments obtained in proton-proton collisions with a center of mass energy of 7 TeV in 2010 and 2011, corresponding to a maximum integrated luminosity of 5 fb−1. We compare the prompt photon and photon-jet differential cross sections to theoretical predictions and discuss their impact on the parton distributio...
متن کاملDi-photon production at the LHC
One of the primary goals of the LHC is to provide clues to the nature of electroweak symmetry breaking. In the standard model this symmetry breaking is provided by the condensation of a fundamental weak scalar doublet, which leaves behind a single neutral scalar, the Higgs boson, as residue. This standard model Higgs boson is constrained by precision electroweak measurements to have mH < ∼ 196–...
متن کاملDouble Diffractive Higgs and Di-photon Production at the Tevatron and LHC
We use the POMWIG Monte Carlo generator to predict the cross-sections for double diffractive higgs and di-photon production at the Tevatron and LHC. We find that the higgs production cross-section is too small to be observable at Tevatron energies, and even at the LHC observation would be difficult. Double diffractive di-photon production, however, should be observable within one year of Tevatr...
