Analysis of the Strongly Interacting WW System : Gold - Plated Modes
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the gold-plated purely leptonic signal and background rates at the LHC for the ZZ, W + W − , W ± Z and W ± W ± final states associated with strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking. We work at an energy of √ s = 14 TeV, and develop a combination of back-to-back leptonic, central-jet-vetoing and forward-jet-tagging cuts that suppresses the Standard-Model backgrounds. We find that the LHC with an annual luminosity of 100 fb −1 will achieve a reasonably good sensitivity to the physics of strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking.

متن کاملInelastic channels in WW scattering.
If the electroweak symmetry-breaking sector becomes strongly interacting at high energies, it can be probed through longitudinal W scattering. We present a model with many inelastic channels in theWLWL scattering process, corresponding to the production of heavy fermion pairs. These heavy fermions affect the elastic scattering ofWL’s by propagating in loops, greatly reducing the amplitudes in s...
متن کاملSafety assessment of glycol recovery unit in a gas refinery by failure mode and effects analysis technique
Background: The reliability and safety of gas refineries are strongly associated with the reliability of other parts of the system. Defect and failure in one part of a system can cause total system breakdown or accident. The failure and damage in these equipment such as transformers and boilers results in not only the equipment damage and human injuries but also productivity reduction. The purp...
