  1. LHC-iTools Methods and tools for the interpretation of the LHC results Sabine Kraml - conseil scientifique - 23 Jan 2018

  2. Motivation • The search for new phenomena beyond the SM (BSM) is one of the top priorities of the LHC program. • To this end, the LHC collaborations are pursuing - precision measurements of “known” processes (jets, EW boson, top quark, Higgs, etc. prod.) \ - searches for new physics in a vast variety of channels. • Results are typically interpreted by the experiments in terms of the SM, popular minimal BSM scenarios, simplified models, EFT fits, … often on an analysis-by- analysis basis. • For a full understanding of the implications for physics at the TeV scale physics we need, however, to be able to confront all kinds of theoretical models against the LHC results. • Close theory-experiment interaction • Sophisticated public tools for a comprehensive, global view of what the data tell us about TeV scale physics.

  3. Why build tools for (re)interpretation? 1. Avoid the streetlight e ff ect 2. Ensure long-term impact of results, use in global analyses, etc. new theories nobody has though of yet not sexy not mainstream non-minimal models soft stu ff vanilla new physics ‘weird’ signatures We want to know what all(!) the LHC and other data tell us about the TeV scale and beyond

  5. Higgs constraints on new physics: Lilith and beyond • From end of 2011 onwards, we pursued detailed studies of the implications of the 125 GeV Higgs boson for new physics ‣ 5 topCite100+, 4 topCite50+, 1 PRL ‣ “editor’s suggestion” and “pick of the month” in PRD • The computer code developed for this purpose was 2HDM Type I Run1+Run2 turned into a public program ( Lilith ) by two of our students: ‣ J. Bernon, B. Dumont, Eur.Phys.J. C75 (2015) no.9 ‣ Springer Thesis Award for B. Dumont 2HDM Type II • Lilith is a Python library which assess the compatibility Run1+Run2 of a non-standard Higgs sector with all available signal strength measurements of the observed state at 125 GeV. • Easily extensible and very fast, which is important for large scans. The results of Lilith can be used to constrain a wide class of new physics scenarios.

  6. Higgs constraints on new physics: Lilith and beyond • If the kinematic distribution of the 125 GeV Higgs signal depends on model parameters, simple scaling of production cross sections and decay branching ratios (relative to the SM) is invalid ➡ must account for the change in the signal selection e ffi ciency. • This can arise from new tensor structures or the presence of new Higgs production modes , e.g., from decays of heavier new states. ➡ particle-level di ff erential measurements • ATLAS and CMS are providing total and di ff erential fiducial cross section measurements for several Higgs decay modes, as well as ` simplified template cross sections’ for specific production modes. Future: We want to develop the relevant machinery for making use of these data.

  7. Using simplified model results: SModelS • It has become standard that ATLAS and CMS present the results of their BSM searches in terms of “simplified model” constraints. • Simplified models (SMS) reduce full models with a plethora of particles and parameters to subsets with just 2-3 new states and a simple decay pattern. • Concept used by SUSY, Exotics, DM searches ~ ~ ~ ∼ pp → t t , t → t χ 0 Moriond 2017 1 900 [GeV] -1 CMS Preliminary 35.9 fb (13 TeV) 800 miss Expected SUS-16-033, 0-lep (H ) T 0 1 Observed ∼ χ SUS-16-036, 0-lep (M ) • Very convenient for optimising analyses that m 700 T2 SUS-16-049, 0-lep stop ~ ~ ~ SUS-16-051, 1-lep stop ∼ 600 pp q q , q q 0 → → χ Moriond 2017 SUS-17-001, 2-lep stop 1 1200 [GeV] Comb. 0-, 1- and 2-lep stop 500 -1 CMS Preliminary 35.9 fb (13 TeV) ~ ~ ~ Expected ∼ 400 pp → b b , b → b χ 0 1000 miss Moriond 2017 look for a particular final state, as well as for 0 1 SUS-16-033, 0-lep (H ) Observed ∼ χ T 1 900 m [GeV] SUS-16-036, 0-lep (M ) -1 CMS Preliminary 35.9 fb (13 TeV) 300 T2 800 800 Expected SUS-16-032, 0-lep sbottom 200 ∼ 0 1 Observed ~ ~ ~ ∼ χ χ miss pp → g g , g → t t 0 m SUS-16-033, 0-lep (H ) 700 comparing the reach of di ff erent strategies.

  10. Using simplified model results: SModelS Future plans: • Produce new e ffi ciency maps for simplified models not considered by ATLAS and CMS to improve coverage of complex models • Test constraints on new models like SUSY with Dirac gauginos • Include lifetime information to be able to treat constraints from searches for long-lived particles (needs restructuring of database) • Extend the model input from SLHA(-like) files to the Lagrangian level, in order to be able to link to, e.g., MadGraph implementations of new models. • Finally, to go beyond the assumption of a Z2 symmetry we will completely revise the SModelS internal language used for the decomposition and the matching with the results in the database. The data description in the results database itself also has to be adapted. This will be SModelSv2.0. - New PhD student, H. Reyes Gonzalez, started in Oct. 2017 - PRC project for collaboration with A. Lessa in Brasil (awaiting renewal for 2018) - Bilateral ANR-FWF project with HEPHY Vienna submitted in Jan 2018 NB: both Lilith and SModelS were interfaced to micrOMEGAS ( Comput. Phys. Comm. 222, 2018.) 10
