Current states of the Higgs search at the LHC ‣The Higgs-like particle has been found at around 126 GeV at the LHC with 5σ. h → γγ h → ZZ* → 4 lepton Historic Milestone but only the Beginning. R. Heuer, July 4th, CERN
Current states of the Higgs search at the LHC Signal strength (σobs/σSM) in each mode Hadron Collider Physics Symposium 2012, ATLAS Hadron Collider Physics Symposium 2012, CMS
Current states of the Higgs search at the LHC Signal strength (σobs/σSM) in each mode Hadron Collider Physics Symposium 2012, ATLAS Hadron Collider Physics Symposium 2012, CMS H → ZZ and H→ WW modes are good agreement to the SM prediction.
Current states of the Higgs search at the LHC Signal strength (σobs/σSM) in each mode Hadron Collider Physics Symposium 2012, ATLAS Hadron Collider Physics Symposium 2012, CMS Obs. H → γγ signal seems to be large compared to the SM prediction.
Current states of the Higgs search at the LHC Signal strength (σobs/σSM) in each mode Hadron Collider Physics Symposium 2012, ATLAS Hadron Collider Physics Symposium 2012, CMS H → bb and H→ττ modes still have a large uncertainty.
The SM-like Higgs boson? • At present, observed new resonance at 126 GeVlooks like the SM-like Higgs boson. (-Consistent with the precision measurements at LEP, - Observed from expected events γγ and ZZ → H is spin 0 or 2) • Large deviation from the SM prediction in H→γγmode • The central value for the H → ττ mode exceeds 0. We need to collect more data in order to clarify the property of the new particle w/126 GeV. Still there are possibilities to consider non-minimal Higgs sectors!
Why extended Higgs sector? • No principle in the Higgs sector - Negative μ2 term → Just an assumption - Higgs boson as an elementary scalar. → Cause for the quadratic div. in the Higgs mass correction. • Phenomena which cannot be explained in the SM - Neutrino masses - Dark matter - Baryon asymmetry of the Universe
Why extended Higgs sector? • No principle in the Higgs sector →Supersymmetry, Dynamical symmetry breaking, Little Higgs models, … • Phenomena which cannot be explained in the SM - Neutrino masses → Rad. seesaw models, type-II seesaw mechanism - Dark matter → Discrete sym. in the Higgs sector e.g. Inert doublet - Baryon asymmetry of the Universe → Electroweak baryogenesis Predict How can we know the true Higgs sector?

Georgi, Machacek(1985) The Georgi-Machacek (GM) Model ★ The minimal extension of the HTM. HTM ★ Two isospin triplet Higgs fields are introduced to the SM. GM ★ The doublet field and the triplet fields can be expressed as SU(2)L×SU(2)R form: SU(2)R SU(2)L ★ If we take two triplet VEVs are the same: <χ0> = <ξ0> SU(2)L×SU(2)R→ SU(2)V (Custodial Symmetry)

Decoupling limit The mass formulae (α = 0) In the limit of vΔ →0 (β → 0, M22→ 0) ★ Triplet-like Higgs bosons are decoupled when M12 is taken to be large values. ★There is a relationship among the masses:
Consequences of the custodial sym. 1. Electroweak rho parameter is unity at the tree level → Triplet VEV can be taken to be O(10) GeV. 2. Mass degeneracies among 5- and 3-plet Higgs bosons; mH5++ = mH5+ = mH50 = mH5, mH3+= mH30= mH3 3. Specific interactions; 5-plet Higgs can couple togauge boson pairs. 3-plet Higgs can couple tofermion pairs . We focus on the features 2 and 3 in order to identify the custodial symmetric GM model at the LHC.

Scenario • mH3 = 150 GeV, mH5 = 140 GeV, vΔ = 20 GeV, α = 0 → Concrete example for Region II • Branching fractions: BR(H5→VV) ~ 100 %, BR(H3+→ cs) ~ 30%, BR(H3+→ τν) ~ 70%, BR(H30→ bb) ~ 90% • We perform the signal & background analysis by using MadGraph5 with the parton level. We consider the hadronic decay of the 3-plet Higgs bosons

MT distributions Transverse mass: 50 GeV < MT < 150 GeV
Signal and background events(int. luminosity 100 fb-1) b-jet tagging efficiency: 0.6
3-plet Higgs reconstructions ★ We use the mixed DY production processes. 5-plet Higgs bosons → diboson decay, 3-plet Higgs bosons → dijet decay
Distributions in the mixed DY process The Δη cut cannot be applied to the mixed DY process, while the MT cut can be used.
Signal and background events(int. luminosity 100 fb-1) After taking the same MT cut, the signal significance can exceed 5 in both the events.
Mjj distributions ★The dijet invariant mass distribution after taking the MTcut: The masses of H3+ and H30 may be measured by the peak in the dijet invariant mass distribution.
Higgs decays into γγand Zγ + RZγ Rγγ
Higgs to γγand Zγ decay RZγ Rγγ ★ Current LHC data of h→γγ mode can be explained when mH5 <~ 150 GeV and mH3 = 150 GeV. ★ Measuring the h→Zγ channel is also important to test the structure of the Higgs sector. (Chiang, KY, arXiv: 1207: 1065[hep-ph]) When Rγγ ~ 1.6, RZγ ~ 1.2.
Summary • The Georgi-Machacek (GM) model is the minimal model included Higgs triplet fields whose Higgs sector is custodial symmetric. • In the GM model, there are the 5-plet, 3-plet and singlet Higgs bosons under the custodial SU(2)V symmetry. • The masses of the Higgs bosons belonging to the same SU(2)V multiplet are the same. • Testing mass degeneracy among the 5-plet Higgs bosons: → The VBF and weak boson associated processes are useful. • Testing mass degeneracy among the 3-plet Higgs bosons: → The mixied DY process is useful after the detection of the 5-plet. The custodial symmetry in the GM model may be tested by above the two steps at the LHC.
