11/11 3. Summary Little Higgs model with T-parity is one of attractive scenario describing New Physics at TeraScale. It contains a candidate for cold dark matter whose stability is guaranteed by the T-parity (Little Higgs dark matter). The property of the dark matter can be investigated at collider experiments such as LHC & ILC. At LHC, top partners can be detected. From their data, the property of the dark matter can be estimated with a model dependent way. At ILC with s 1/2 = 500 GeV, the property of the dark matter can be determined with model-independent way. Also, the relic abundance can be determined with the accuracy comparable to the WMAP. AT ILC with s 1/2 = 1 TeV, the property of the dark matter can be determined very accurately. For instance, the relic abundance will be determined with the accuracy comparable to PLANCK experiment.

T + pair production at the LHC The distributions have distinguishable peaks at around the T + mass. SM BG are well below the signal.  From the distribution, we will be able to study the properties of T +. ~ Results ~ ~ Cut used in the analysis ~ ~ Discussion ~

T + pair production at the LHC We consider the bin Then, we calculate the # of events in the bin as a function of with being fixed. The peak of the distribution is determined by maximizing the # of events in the bin. We applied the procedure for ~ Results ~ ~ Conclusion ~ ~ Accuracy of the m T+ determination ~ The difference between the position of the peak and the input value of mT+ is, typically, GeV!

There are 2-fold ambiguity to reconstruct neutrino momenta  & Reject events unless is small. Jet mass is also used to reduce the BG. ~ Output ~ Distribution of ~ Strategy to reduce BG ~

Single T + production occurs not through a QCD process but through a EW process (e.g. W-exchange). Distributions have distinguishable peaks at around the T + mass when sin 2 β is large enough!  From the cross section, we will be able to determine sinβ. ~ Results ~ ~ Cut used in the analysis ~ ~ Discussion ~ T + single production at the LHC

We use the side-band method to extract the # of the single production events, (L) (C) (R) after imposing the cuts. Then, cross section for the single T + production can be obtained from the # of events in the signal region. ~ Results (Point 2) ~ ~ Conclusion ~ ~ Accuracy of sinβ determination ~ The cross section, which is proportional to sin 2 β, will be determined with 10-20%. Parameter “sinβ”, which is given by a combination of f & λ 2, will be determined with 5-10% accuracy! T + single production at the LHC

T – pair production at the LHC SM BG: tt–production! (460 pb) - At the parton level Signal = (bqqA H )×2 1. Large missing momentum is expected in the signal event due to dark matter emissions. 2.

End-point of the distribution of M T2 is determined by a combination of m T+, m AH, and the postulate mass. By looking at the position of the end-point with an appropriate value of, it is possible to get information of m AH & m T+ ! We have also checked that there is no contamination of the BG around End-point! ~ Results (Point 2) ~ ~ Conclusion ~ ~ Accuracy M T2 (max) determination ~ Using the distribution of the M T2 with, the upper end-point will be determined with GeV accuracy (at Point 2)!
