Bounds on supersymmetric effective operators from heavy diphoton searches

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We identify the bounds on supersymmetric effective operators beyond MSSM, from heavy diphoton resonance (X) negative searches at the LHC, where X is identified with the neutral CP-even (odd) H (A) or both (mass degenerate). While minimal supersymmetric models (MSSM, etc) comply with the data, a leading effective operator of d=6 can contribute significantly to diphoton production sigmasim1 fb, well above its MSSM value and in conflict with recent data. Both the and gg production mechanisms of H and A can contribute comparably to this. We examine the dependence of the diphoton cross section sigma on the values of mX, Lambda and , under the experimental constraints from the SM-like higgs couplings hgg and hgammagamma (due to mixing) and from the and searches. These give Lambda larger than sim5 TeV for mX in the range 0.5−1 TeV. We show how to generate the d=6 effective operator from microscopic (renormalizable) models. This demands the presence of vector-like states beyond the MSSM spectrum (and eventually but not necessarily a gauge singlet), of mass near Lambda and thus outside the LHC reach.
