Little Higgs after the little one
arXiv:1603.02037 · doi:10.1007/JHEP06(2016)074
Abstract
At the LHC, the Littlest Higgs Model with -parity is characterised by various production channels. If the -odd quarks are heavier than the exotic partners of the and the , then associated production can be as important as the pair-production of the former. Studying both, we look for final states comprising at least one lepton, jets and missing transverse energy. We consider all the SM processes that could conspire to contribute as background to our signals, and perform a full detector level simulation of the signal and background to estimate the discovery potential at the current run as well as at the scheduled upgrade of the LHC. We also show that, for one of the channels, the reconstruction of two tagged -jets at the Higgs mass provides us with an unambiguous hint for this model.
