Two Higgs are better than one: Physics at the Super Large Hadron Collider and the implications for the CMS Silicon Tracker Tom Whyntie 1 st year PhD student, High Energy Physics Group Supervisor: Professor Geoff Hall

Outline of the talk Why upgrade? Physics case Higgs self-coupling measurement? Upgrade challenges The CMS silicon tracker Tracker info in the level-1 Trigger? Questions at the end, please

5
Why increase the luminosity? Statistics Increase data rate precision Physics motivation 1) Improve SM precision 2) Improve “new physics” precision 3) Extend discovery reach 4) Sensitivity to rare processes The question is: Where to look? [6][7][8]
6
Why increase the luminosity? e.g. Trilinear coupling precision: SLHC ( m H = 150-200GeV ): ~20% SLHC ( m H = 120GeV ): ~50-80% Linear Collider: ~20% (HH) ~10fb [9][10][11][12][13][14]
7
Why upgrade to the SLHC? LHC discoveries will need probing SLHC - increase precision & reach Present knowledge Current infrastructure Timeframe
8
The LHC environment 10 34 cm -2 s -1
9
The SLHC environment 10 35 cm -2 s -1 20x more interactions per bunch crossing [7] [15]
10
Detector Upgrade Issues Radiation tolerance Services Material budget Data rates Triggering Solve and build in ~10 years! [7] [15]
11
Analysis 10 2 Hz HLT 10 5 Hz Level 1 10 9 Hz The CMS Trigger system Muon chambers ECALHCAL Tracker Inner Outer 20x? Tracker information à la HLT? [7][16]
12
“Stacked Tracking” 1-2mm (from interaction point) High p T particle Low p T particle “Stacked” pixel layers PASSES FAILS J Jones, A Rose et al [17][18]
13
“Stacked Tracking” [16][18]
14
Conclusions SLHC needed Describe new physics Improve, extend Many technical challenges 20x more interactions pbx e.g. level 1 triggering R&D needed – now!
