چکیده

We examine the colour structure and charged particle yield for both the tt̄ signal and the irreducible background processes contributing to e+e− → bb̄W+W− production close to the tt̄ threshold. The charged particle multiplicity for the various components of the cross section is computed as a function of several kinematic variables. Our study may have important implications for recently proposed studies of interconnection phenomena in tt̄ production at high–energy e+e− colliders.

W± + 4jet irreducible background events from QCD in top and Higgs searches at the Next Linear Collider

Irreducible background effects due to e+e− → W + bbjj and e+e− → W + jjjj events produced via QCD in top-antitop production and heavy Higgs searches in the bremsstrahlung channel are studied at the Next Linear Collider. Various distributions relevant to phenomenological analyses are given and compared to those expected from top and Higgs signals in the decay channel bb̄W+W− → bb̄Wjj. This analysi...

At the next Linear Collider in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model

The complete matrix elements for ee → bb̄WH and ee → bb̄HH are computed at tree-level within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. Rates of interest to phenomenological analyses at the Next Linear Collider are given. In particular, we analyse: (i) tt̄ pair production followed by the top decays into bb̄WH and bb̄HH final states; (ii)HH signals in which H → hW → bb̄W and H → tb → bb̄W. Top and Higg...

The phenomenology of W±H∓ production at the Large Hadron Collider

Barrientos Bendezú and Kniehl [1] recently suggested that WH associated production may be a useful channel in the search for the elusive heavy charged Higgs bosons of the 2 Higgs Doublet Model at the Large Hadron Collider. We investigate the phenomenology of this mechanism in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, with special attention paid to the most likely heavy Higgs decay, H → tb → bb̄...

The process e+e− → bb̄W+W− at the Next Linear Collider in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model

The complete matrix element for ee → bb̄WW is computed at treelevel within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. Rates of interest to phenomenological analyses at the Next Linear Collider are given. In particular, we study: • tt̄ production and decay tt̄ → (bW)(b̄W); • ZH production followed by Z → bb̄ and H → WW; • AH production followed by A → bb̄ and H → WW; • hWW production followed by h → b...

Irreducible QCD backgrounds to top searches in semi-leptonic final states at the Next Linear Collider

At future electron-positron colliders, one of the largest irreducible backgrounds to top searches in the channel ‘4 jets + lepton + missing energy’ comes from QCD events of order α2s. We compute here such processes exactly at the parton level by resorting to 2 → 6 matrix elements exploiting helicity amplitude techniques. We adopt a typical selection procedure based on the tagging of a high mome...
