Top quark angular distribution results (LHC) Thorsten Wengler, CERN On behalf of the ATLAS and CMS collaborations TOP 2012 September 16-21, 2012 Winchester, UK

All results based on pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV collected by CMS and ATLAS in 2011 LHCb ALICE LHC ring: 27 km circumference ATLAS

Why the top is such a celebrity Because it lives fast and dies young no time for hadronisation in 5x10-25 s, properties can be determined e.g. from angular distribution of decay products Why the top is such a celebrity Because it has exciting kids High pT leptons, miss ET, high pT (b)jets, facilitate triggering, selection, systematic studies Because it’s the Heavy-Weight champion Probe of EWSB sector, direct tests of new physics in production (e.g. resonances) and decay (e.g. H+, FCNC) 3

What do we test here? The angular distributions of the decay products contain a lot of information: Top spins correlated? SM says YES W+/W- decay modes: Single- or di-leptonic channels used here W fractional helicities? SM says F0~0.7, FL~0.3, FR~0 Wtb vertex? Tops polarized? SM says ~NO Event selection / background treatment: follows common tt selection procedures 4

W helicity θ* W polarization states longitudinal left-handed right-handed SM (NNLO, ~% rel. uncert.) F0 = 0.687 FL = 0.311 FR = 0.0017 PRD 81 (2010) 111503 b W t l νl θ* angle between the charged lepton in the W rest frame and W momentum in top rest frame. F0 + FL + FR = 1

W helicity Template fit to observed cos θ* distribution 1.04 fb-1 Single- and di-lepton channels 3 signal templates F0 = 1, FL = 1 and FR = 1 plus background templates Sensitive to shape related uncertainties ISR/FSR, jet reconstruction 1.04 fb-1 JHEP 1206 (2012) 088 Angular asymmetries on unfolded cos θ* distribution Single- and di-lepton channels Sensitive to background normalisation

W helicity Likelihood fit to cos θ* distribution CMS PAS TOP-11-020 Single-lepton (μ) channel Data sample 2.2 fb-1 Templates built by event-by-event reweighting of generated cos θ* plus separate BKGS contributions Two types of fits, ‘2D’ and ‘3D’ ∫ L dt = 2.2 fb-1 ‘3D’-Fit Free parameters: F0, FL, Ftt Constraint: FR = 1 – F0 – FL ‘2D’-Fit Free parameters: F0, Ftt Constraints: FR = 0, FL = 1 – F0 Ftt: normalisation factor of tt component in # expected events entering likelihood

W helicity ‘3D’-Fit (main result) ‘2D’-Fit (consistent) F0 = 0.567 ± 0.074(stat.) ± 0.047(syst.) FL = 0.393 ± 0.045(stat.) ± 0.029(syst.) FR = 0.040 ± 0.035 (stat.) ± 0.044(syst.) F0 = 0.643 ± 0.034(stat.) ± 0.050(syst.) FL = 0.357 ± 0.034 (stat.) ± 0.050(syst.) FR set to 0 Combined result F0 = 0.67 ± 0.03(stat.) ± 0.06 (syst.) FL = 0.32 ± 0.02(stat.) ± 0.03 (syst.) FR = 0.01 ± 0.01(stat.) ± 0.04 (syst.) With FR = 0 (consistent) F0 = 0.66 ± 0.03(stat.) ± 0.04 (syst.) FL = 0.34 ± 0.03(stat.) ± 0.04 (syst.)

Di-lepton channel is most promising tt Spin correlations θ* Phys. Lett. B539, 235 (2002) Amount of spin information carried by daughter particle 1S0 tt spins correlated at production Di-lepton channel is most promising Measured value of A depends on quantisation axis Example above: tt direction in ttCM frame helicity basis

tt Spin correlations SM e.g. H+, b’ e.g. KK gravitons, Z’ The SM spin correlation may be modified by new physics e.g. H+, b’ e.g. KK gravitons, Z’

tt Spin correlations θ* Mahlon, Parke, PRD D81 (2010) 074024 NLOW: Bernreuther, Si, Nucl. Phys. B837, 90 (2010) θ* Determination requires full event reconstruction Difficult in particular for di-lepton channel  under-constrained kinematics due to 2 neutrinos Mahlon, Parke (2010): use azimuthal angle Δϕ between charged leptons in lab frame  Method: Fit templates of correlated and uncorrelated sample (+BKGS template) to data

tt Spin correlation Theor. Uncert. ~ 1% CMS PAS TOP-12-004 PRL108 (2012) 212001 CMS PAS TOP-12-004 Theor. Uncert. ~ 1% Nucl. Phys. B 837, 90 (2010)

tt Spin correlation CMS also provides unfolded cos(θl+,n) cos(θl-,n) and Δϕl+l- distributions  Direct comparisons to parton-level theory Requires full event reconstruction! Nuc. Phys. B 837 (2010) 90 Good agreement with SM [SVD/RooUnfold]

tt Spin correlation First observation of top spin correlations Results by channel 5.1 σ against zero spin correlations First observation of top spin correlations Asymmetries in addition to template fits:  Needs full event reconstruction Good agreement with SM, also at Mtt > 450 GeV
