VH and HH resonance searches in Run 2

DC14 request

• VH resonance search: Heavy Vector Triplet, 2HDM -->talk to HSG6
  • 500, 1000,1500, 2000 GeV mass points 25k events each per channel:lvbb, llbb,vvbb, qqbb (full sim?)
  • Benchmark A (gv=1) and benchmark B (gv=3)
  • 800K events total ( or 400K if we only ask for one benchmark since kinematics are very similar)

• HH resonant production: Bulk RS Graviton, MSTW2008LO or CTEQ6L1 PDF?, mH=125 GeV, c= k/Mpl = 1
  • G*->HH->bbtautau:
    • 500, 1000,1500, 2000, 2500 mass points with 100K events each --> cover three final states. Full sim
    • 500K events total full sim needed for tau reconstruction
  • G*->HH->bbbb
    • 500, 1000,1500, 2000, 2500 mass points with 50K events each
    • 250K events total, full simulation needed.
  • G*->HH->bbWW
    • 500, 1000,1500, 2000, 2500 mass points, 25k events per channel
    • channels: bblvlv, bblvqq, bbqqqq
    • 375K events total: probably need full sim for boosted objects studies.
  • G*->HH->bbgammagamma
    • same mass points as other final states?

• HH non-resonant production: --> HSG6?

• More preferences TWiki has system wide preferences settings defined in TWikiPreferences. You can customize preferences settings to your needs: To overload a system setting, (1) do a "raw view" on TWikiPreferences, (2) copy a Set VARIABLE = value bullet, (3) do a "raw edit" of your user profile page, (4) add the bullet to the bullet list above, and (5) customize the value as needed. Make sure the settings render as real bullets (in "raw edit", a bullet requires 3 or 6 spaces before the asterisk).
