Higgs Bosons and the Indirect Search for WIMPs
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigated the contribution of the MSSM Higgs bosons produced in the neutralino annihilation in the Earth and Sun to the total WIMPs detection signal. We found that this contribution is very important and results in a lower bound for the muon flux from the Sun of 10 ÷ 10 m yr for neutralinos heavier than about 200 GeV. We noticed that due to the SUSY charged Higgs bosons one can expect an energetic τ neutrino flux from the Sun at a level of 10 m yr.

Searches for Non-sm Higgs at the Tevatron
Tevatron is currently the only place where we can search for not only the standard model (SM) Higgs boson but also non-SM Higgs bosons. CDF and DØ have started searching for the exotic Higgs bosons including supersymmetric Higgs bosons and doubly charged Higgs bosons. DØ recently updated the results of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) Higgs boson search using hbb̄ → bb̄bb̄ final st...
متن کاملBounds on Higgs and Gauge–Boson Interactions from LEP2 Data
We derive bounds on Higgs and gauge–boson anomalous interactions using the LEP2 data on the production of three photons and photon pairs in association with hadrons. In the framework of SU(2)L ⊗ U(1)Y effective Lagrangians, we examine all dimension–six operators that lead to anomalous Higgs interactions involving γ and Z. The search for Higgs boson decaying to γγ pairs allow us to obtain constr...
متن کاملStrangephilic Higgs Bosons in the MSSM
We suggest a new CPX-derived scenario for the search of strangephilic MSSM Higgs bosons at the Tevatron and the LHC, in which all neutral and charged Higgs bosons decay predominantly into pairs of strange quarks and into a strange and a charm quark, respectively. The proposed scenario is realized within a particular region of the MSSM parameter space and requires large values of tanβ, where thr...
متن کاملNeutrinos from particle decay in the Sun and Earth.
Weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) may be indirectly detected by observation of upward muons induced by energetic neutrinos from annihilation of WIMPs that have accumulated in the Sun and/or Earth. Energetic muon neutrinos come from the decays of leptons, c, b, and t quarks, gauge bosons, and Higgs bosons produced by WIMP annihilation. We provide analytic expressions, suitable for com...
متن کاملEXOTIC MATTER RESEARCH IN SPACE Rom2F/2001/06
The direct detection of annihilation products in cosmic rays offers an alternative way to search for dark matter particles candidates. Here we will see in particular that the study of the spectrum of antiproton and positrons offers good possibilities to perform this search and we will review our experimental effort in this direction. 1 Probing for dark matter with cosmic rays space experiments ...
