Research Conducted at University of Oxford Has Provided New Information about Physics (Interference Effects In Gg- H- Zy Beyond Leading Order)

2024 SEP 23 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Ivy League Daily News -- Current study results on Physics have been published.

Article Description

The ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the LHC have recently announced evidence for the rare Higgs boson decay into a Z boson and a photon. We analyze the interference between the process gg→H→Zγ induced by loops of heavy particles, which is by far the dominant contribution to the signal, and the continuum gg→Zγ QCD background process mediated by light quark loops. This interference modifies the event yield, the resonance line-shape and the apparent mass of the Higgs boson. We calculate the radiative corrections to this interference beyond the leading-order approximation in perturbative QCD and find that, while differing numerically from the corresponding effects on the more studied gg→γγ signal, they are generally rather small. As such, they do not impact significantly the interpretation of the present measurements of the H→Zγ decay mode.
