Determining theCPParity of Higgs Bosons via TheirτDecay Channels at the Large Hadron Collider

Abstract: If neutral Higgs bosons will be discovered at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) then an important subsequent issue will be the investigation of their CP nature. Higgs boson decays into τ lepton pairs are particularly suited in this respect. Analyzing the three charged pion decay modes of the τ leptons and taking expected measurement uncertainties at the LHC into account, we show that the CP properties of a Higgs boson can be pinned down with appropriately chosen observables, provided that sufficiently large… Show more

“…The majority of previous studies on CP in h → ττ focus on methods for measuring the polarization properties of the Higgs decay products [37][38][39][40][41]. This requires knowledge of the impact parameter or rest frame of the τs, both of which are difficult quantities to reconstruct in a hadron collider environment (although see Refs.…”

“…Indirect effects may appear in the electric dipole moments (EDMs) of the electron and neutron [28], modifications in meson mixing parameters [29], or anomalous ZZZ couplings [30], while direct effects may be discovered in hτ þ τ − or htt vertices through measuring the final-state distributions [31]. If another scalar is discovered and we denote the scalars as h 1;2 (h 1 is the SM-like Higgs boson and h 2 is the extra scalar), we can also discover CP violation in the scalar sector through directly measuring tree-level vector-vector-scalar-(VVS) and vector-scalar-scalar-type (VSS) vertices, such as h 2 VV and Vh 1 h 2 vertices, 2 according to the analysis of CP properties [24].…”

“…Using the present measured signal strengths in various Higgs search channels, theoretical studies on the Higgs CP properties have been performed, and constraints on the mixing angle of the CP -even and CP -odd component are given model dependently [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. There are also investigations on how and to what extent to pin down the Higgs CP mixing angle via other Higgs decay channels at the LHC and future linear collider [27][28][29][30].…”
