Phenomenology of Twin Higgs Model Shufang Su • U. of Arizona Hock-Seng Goh, Shufang Su Hep-ph/0610xxx
Outline - • Twin Higgs Model • Twin Higgs mechanism • Left-right Twin Higgs model • New particles and model parameters • Collider phenomenology • Heavy top quark • Heavy gauge bosons • Higgses
Twin Higgs mechanism - Higgs as pseudo-Goldstone boson of a global symmetry Its mass is protected against radiative corrections • Little Higgs mechanism: collective symmetry breaking • Twin Higgs mechanism: discrete symmetry Mirror symmetry Type IA TH: Chacko, Goh, Harnik, hep-ph/0506256 Type IB TH: Chacko, Nomura, Papucci, Perez, hep-ph/0510273 Left-right symmetry Type II TH: Chacko, Goh, Harnik, hep-ph/0512088
Left-right Twin Higgs model • SM Higgs doublet • EWSB SM neutral Higgs: H 3 eaten by heavy gauge bosons - • Global U(4) , with subgroup SU(2)L SU(2)R U(1)B-L gauged • Left-right symmetry: gL=gR (yL=yR) A linear realization U(4) U(3) SU(2)L SU(2)R U(1)B-L SU(2)LU(1)Y 7 GB
Twin Higgs mechanism - Quadratic divergence forbidden by left-right symmetry gL=gR=g U(4) invariant, does not contribute to the mass of GB Log contribution: mH g2f / (4 ), natural for f TeV
Left-right Twin Higgs model - Fermion sector: Top quark mass: Top quark mass eigenstates: SM top and tH EW precision constraints on SU(2)R gauge boson mass f 2 TeV Introduce another Higgs field that only couples to gauge sector Which has a larger VEV
