1 Electroweak Summary Chris Hays, Oxford University for the EWK/BSM session conveners: Michael Kramer Dave South Filip Zarnecki XVI th Workshop on Deep Inelastic Scattering London, England April 10, 2008

2 Electroweak Summary, DIS 20082 Electroweak and Beyond-the-Standard-Model Session 42 talks –17 in this summary, 25 in BSM summary 10 additional talks in joint sessions with HFS, SF –4 in this summary, 6 in HFS/SF summaries Many new results shown –Impossible to show all, or to give those shown justice 420 minutes in 20 slides –Apologies to those missed

3 April 10, 2008Electroweak Summary, DIS 20083 The Experiments in a Nutshell CMS & ATLAS –Looking forward to data! ZEUS & H1 & NuTeV –Look at all our data! CDF & DØ & NA48/62 –Looking forward to more data!

4 April 10, 2008Electroweak Summary, DIS 20084 The Electroweak Theory Before symmetry breaking: SU(2) L x U(1) Y gauge symmetry gauge term fermion term Higgs term Yukawa term After symmetry breaking: U(1) EM gauge symmetry kinetic neutral current charged current Trilinear gauge interaction Higgs Higgs-gauge interaction Quartic gauge interaction Yukawa

5 April 10, 2008Electroweak Summary, DIS 20085 Trilinear Gauge Couplings Probe WW  vertex with W  production at the Tevatron t- and u-channels dominate cross section –How do you see the s-channel? 2.6  “dip” significance Interference effectsCompare data to non-SM trilinear-gauge-coupling predictions Y. Maravin’s talk arXiv:0803.0030

6 April 10, 2008Electroweak Summary, DIS 20086 Trilinear Gauge Couplings Tevatron only place to separately probe WWZ and WW  vertices CDF has observed WZ production at the 6  level D. Waters’ talk PRL 98, 161801 PRD 76, 111104(R)

7 April 10, 2008Electroweak Summary, DIS 20087 Trilinear Gauge Couplings No neutral trilinear couplings in the SM –Tevatron experiments test this prediction with measurements of Z  and ZZ production Y. Maravin’s talk arXiv:0712.0599 D. Waters’ talk arXiv:0801.4806 CDF: first measurement of ZZ production 4.4  significance

13 April 10, 2008Electroweak Summary, DIS 200813 Charged Current Tevatron directly constrains V tb with single top production CDF:  t+s = 2.2 ± 0.7 pb (3.7  significance), |V tb | > 0.66 DØ:  t+s = 4.7 ± 1.3 pb (3.6  significance), |V tb | > 0.68 D. Hirschbühl’s talk LHC: |V tb | to 5% with 10 fb -1 R. Hawkings' talk

14 April 10, 2008Electroweak Summary, DIS 200814 Yukawa Couplings Top Yukawa coupling suspiciously close to 1 –CDF & DØ have updated their measurements with 2 fb -1 P. Mehtälä's talk LHC: m t to 1 GeV with 1 fb -1 N. Besson's talk

15 April 10, 2008Electroweak Summary, DIS 200815 Yukawa Couplings Independently determine top mass from production cross section m t = 170 ± 7 GeV D. Cho's talk

16 April 10, 2008Electroweak Summary, DIS 200816 Kinetic Terms Indirectly constrain Higgs mass using Electroweak parameters –Higgs loop corrections to the W mass New top mass improves consistency with SM m H = 87 +36 -27 GeV, m H < 160 (190) GeV Assuming  m t ~ 1 GeV and  m W ~ 10 MeV (LHC projections) N. Besson's talk

17 April 10, 2008Electroweak Summary, DIS 200817 Kinetic Terms Higgs searches heating up at the Tevatron –Low-mass searches focus on WH, ZH, with H → bb; New: VBF H →  –High-mass searches focus on H → WW WH ZH VBF H B. Tuchming's talk D. Hidas' talk
