Title: Finding the asymmetry in the number of polarised Z0 bosons.


1
Finding the asymmetry in the number of polarised
Z0 bosons.
For signal-gtlarge energy(ET ETot) PT
difference between e1e2 of ee-
by 280GeV !!!
(Unexpected unknown?)
Agreement between truth MC data (before Atlfast
smears) and Atlfast data.
-gtlook at the angular distributions spins in Z0
rest frame using Spcl MC data.

Results-finally!
  • Employed a Lorentz boost function (from BaBar C
    course/P.F. Kunz).
  • Plotted cos? and ? (boosted/Z0 rest frame).
    Also cos? and ? (laboratory

  • frame- as a
    check).
  • Boosted frame (Z0 rest frame)

3
  • Laboratory frame

Conclusions
  • No.Z0L gt No.Z0T -gt explains this large E/PT
    difference -gt good. But
  • Next question Why is this so?
  • Important notes
  • Production ss s(ZL ZL) gt s(ZT ZT) -gt spin
    nature of radion and gravition

  • (spin-0)
    (spin-2)
  • compare -gt SM production of ZLZL is
    suppressed.

2. Also noticed Massive particles -gtdecaying-gt
VLVL (where V is a W or Z0).
e.g. Higgs case H-gtZZ gt s(ZLZL) is pronounced
at the Higgs peak.
So,
Low E (SM) gg-gtZTZT
qqbar-gtZTZT High E(BSM) gg-gtG or ?-gtZLZL
qqbar-gtG or ?-gtZLZL

Origin of EWSB?
  • Still largely unknown (using SM).
  • Theories for mechanism of EWSB include
    strong-self interactions

-gtResponsible for removing symmetry between
photon (massless) and
W, W-,
Z0 (massive).
  • New physics (new resonances) supply-gt 3x degrees
    of freedom (Goldstone


  • bosons)
  • -gtswallowed by the gauge bosons (WL and ZL ).

-gtNew physics MUST appear at 1TeV scale (so not
to violate unitarity).
-gtTeV scale Graviton resonances?
Work in progress
  • Started using the KTjet clustering algorithm for
    a more detailed jet analysis.
