Koen Oussoren - Atlas Outing 2014 Why spin and CP? SM is boring Something new would spice up things a bit Different models predict Higgs to have different spin/CP, so not scalar-like Testing our understanding of the physics Spin/CP studies mainly involve shape analysis and are complementary to rate and coupling analysis Koen Oussoren - Atlas Outing 2014

Koen Oussoren - Atlas Outing 2014 HWW analysis Higgs decay to WW Dileptonic W decay Events to look for have 2 leptons and quite a bit of missing transverse energy Spin analysis revolved mainly around lepton kinematics Outcome: What we see is pretty much SM-like CP-mixing analysis Mixture between SM-like and pseudo-scalar Higgs Setting limits on mixing angle α BDT analysis My current contribution? General method for finding Fourier components of lepton angles and momenta in a specifically chosen Higgs rest frame Koen Oussoren - Atlas Outing 2014

Koen Oussoren - Atlas Outing 2014 Collins-Soper frame First used by Collins-Soper to modify the Drell-Yan model to account for transverse momentum (1977) Particles B and A are gluons (quarks) that fuse into a Higgs. Z-axis is the bisection of Pa and –Pb X-axis is “away”-vector of Pa+Pb and also direction of the Higgs in lab frame Koen Oussoren - Atlas Outing 2014

Koen Oussoren - Atlas Outing 2014 Angles Angles θ and ϕ are well defined in this frame Together with the momentum of the leptons all the information on Higgs spin/CP is available Any preference for the angles and the momentum will not be washed out in the CS-frame Interesting for studies on C, P and T violation x φ θ z z lab y Koen Oussoren - Atlas Outing 2014
