Decay-mode independent searches for new Higgs-like scalar at a future e+e- collider

Not scheduled
20m

Speaker

Maria Teresa Nunez Pardo De Vera (FH-FTX/FS-EC)

Description

Many BSM models predict the existency of Higgs-like scalars. Future e+e- colliders are specially
suited for searching these scalars, for instance in associated production with a Z boson. The most model-independent
search is based on the recoil of the scalar against the Z boson. This project will determine the
sensitivity of a e+e- linear collider at center-of-mass energy 550 GeV to these new scalars, extending
a study recently done at 250 GeV to higher scalar masses. The search will be based on a detailed simulation of the
International Large Detector (ILD) originally proposed for the ILC.

Special Qualifications

Good programming skills, mainly cpp and python, some knowledge of root adventageous.
Interest in physics prospects of future colliders.
