The Tevatron: Run 2
Expect 2 /fb by 2006 and 4.4-8.6 /fb by 2009 sensitivity to New Physics improved by>5 compared to Run 1
Run 2 started in June 01:
CMS energy 1.96 TeV
Delivered Lumi: 480/pb
Promising slope in 2004!
Data taking efficiencies about 90%
Physics Analyses:
Use about 200/pb (2x run 1)
But it’s still early days in Run 2!

The Challenge
Higgs
?WW, Wγ, Zγ,
Cross Sections (fb)
QCD and EWK cross sections 10-5 orders of magnitude larger than new physics!Finding the needle in the heystack…
Good understanding of SM backgroundsUse data and MC to estimate themUseful: new enhanced LO MC’s (Alpgen, Madgraph)
NN and Likelihood methods require excellent modelling of BG

Prospects for SM HiggsOriginal study in 1998 confirmed in 2003Study still based on some extrapolationsNo sensitivity expected with current Luminosity of 200/pb (not even on plot!)But search now anyway:
Get ready for high LuminosityPossibly new bright students develop smarter ideas than anticipated in studies Understand systematic errors realistically (and start working on them!)

• E.g. SM Higgs at 115 GeV •exclude at 95% C.L. in 2006•3 evidence in 2009

Di-lepton, extra jet, etc.
Observe 2072 events in data
• Simulations performed with Alpgen plus Herwig passed through detailed detector response
CDF: WH→lvbb (I)
Data in good agreement with Background expectationMain Background:

Systematics studies
• Exceeds CDF’s Run I limit ×BR < 14 – 19 pbfor MH = 70 – 120 GeV PRL 79, 3819 (1997)

Higgs in SUSY at high tanStandard Model:
σ(bbH) =1-10 fb: 100 x smaller than WH
SUSY: Cross section enhanced at high tanβ: σ(bb) ~ tanβ! (Willenbrook et al.)
E.g. for M(A)=120 GeV:5 discovery for tan>30 3 evidence for tan>20
Experimentally:1 b-jet typically soft:Require 3 jets with b-tags
CDF Run I 95% C.L.
bbbbbbqqgg , (=h,H,A)BR( ) ~ 90%bb
B. Heinemann Searches for New Physics at the Tevatron15
D0: Neutral Higgs at High TanEvent Selection:
At least 3 jets:ET cuts on jets optimized for different Higgs mass values 3 b-tagged jets
Look for signal in the invariant mass spectrum from the two leading b-jetsMain Background:
QCD multi b-productionDifficult for LO MC: determined from data and/or ALPGEN 1.2
Signal acceptance about 0.2-1.5% depending on Mass
∫Ldt=131 pb-1
AND FINAL STATE??????????
Difficulties:• triggering: 3 b-jets, 4th jet soft: e.g.=2 % in CDF• background: 3 b-jets beyond LO MC abilities and generating enough MC challenging CPU wise• mass resolution: optimise and check in Z→bb
B. Heinemann Searches for New Physics at the Tevatron16
D0: Non-SM Light HSome extensions of SM contain Higgs w/ large B(H)
Fermiophobic Higgs : does not couple to fermionsTopcolor Higgs : couples to only to top (i.e. no other fermions)
Important discovery channel at LHC
Event selection 2 Isolated ’s with
pT > 25 GeV||<1.05 (CC) or 1.5<||<2.4 (EC)
pT () > 35 GeV (optimised)BG: mostly jets faking photons
Syst. error about 30% per photon!Estimated from Data

B. Heinemann Searches for New Physics at the Tevatron17
Photon Fake RateRate of jets with leading meson (pi0, eta) which cannot be distinguished from prompt photons: Depends on
detector capabilities, e.g. granularity of calorimeterCuts!
Systematic error about 30-80% depending on EtData higher than Pythia and HerwigPythia describes data better than Herwig
CDF (preliminary result)

Supersymmetry ReminderSM Fermions Boson SuperpartnersSM Bosons Fermion Superpartners
Physical SUSY sparticles: neutralinos (Higgs, Photon, Z partners), charginos (Higgs, W partners), squarks (quark partners), sleptons (lepton partners)
Different SUSY models:Supergravity: SUSY broken near GUT scale
GUT scale parameters: scalar mass m0 , gaugino mass m1/2 , ratio of Higgs v.e.v’s tanβ, Higgs mixing parameter μ
LSP is neutralino or sneutrino ν
Gauge-mediated models (GMSB): SUSY broken at lower energies – breaking scale important parameter.
Gravitino G is the LSP (NLSP χ0 →Gγ )

Main challenge - weak production low cross sections
LEP limits are very restrictive
select two identified leptons, so far:

CDF: Bs->μ+μ-
New Physics can enhance branching ratios of B-mesons:
Measure BR in decay modes suppressed in SM
E.g. Bs→μμ:Bs = bound state of b and s quarkSM: BR(Bs→μμ)~10-9
SUSY: BR may be A LOT higher at high tan
Blind analysis with a priori optimisation:
1 event observed, ~1+-0.3 expected

Summary of Black BoxesBackground Monte Carlo:
Enhanced LO MC’s (Alpgen, Madgraph etc.) being used more and more Much better description of data than e.g. Pythia/Herwig:Starting to use MC@NLOCPU intense: often impractical to generate enough in remote corners of phase space
Jet energy scale and resolution crucial for many measurements:
Tuning of Pythia and Herwig required to describe jets better
Jets faking leptons, photons, tau’s:Fake rate measurements big industry at CDF and D0: it is an art to correctly measure a fake rate!
Biggest experimental problems arise when data NOT modelled by MC
Generator detector simulation
Input and suggestions from theorists (or anybody) to maximise physics are very very welcome!

Conclusions and OutlookHave done many searches and not found anything, butThis is just the beginning:
expect a factor of 10 more data by 2006/7Analyses can be optimisedUnderstanding of detector and techniques improvingNew/better MC tools becoming availableIdentify and solve experimental and phenomenological challenges
Invaluable experience for the LHC onBackground estimationJet energy and Missing Et measurementsReliability and understanding of MC and it’s limitationsCommissioning the largest scale detectors to dateOptimising triggers and handling large data samples

It’s early days for searches…Analyses not yet fully optimised for maximal sensitivity:
Extrapolation of current result to 2 fb-1 not validLegacy of Run 1: “going back to Run 1” required BEFORE making improvements upon Run 1
Largest scale detectors world-wideE.g. 720k RO channels for CDF Silicon detectorCommissioning and maintenance take a lot of resources
Optimisation of triggers still ongoingConstantly increasing Luminosity requires frequent changes to optimise physics potential
Offline software and Data Handling permanent struggleMonte Carlo statistics often limited, e.g. no full survey of SUSY parameter space
Development of offline tools e.g. b-tagging, jet calibration, tracking algorithms vital for long term successRequires people focussing on this rather than analyses
Many (good) people focused on EWK and top measurements instead to gain understanding of detectors (quite rightly!)

Stops may be light due to mixing between partners of left, right-handed topSimilar for sbottomsLook for direct pair production of stops or sbottoms

Apparent symmetry between the lepton & quark sectors: common origin ?
e e
Lepton + Quark Resonances : Leptoquarks
• LQs appear in many extensions of SM (compositeness, technicolor…)
• Connect lepton & quark sectors • Scalar or Vector color triplet bosons• Carry both lepton and baryon number • fractional em. Charge: +-1/3, +-4/3, etc.• Braching ratio β unknown, convention:
•β=1 means 100% BR LQ→l±q•β=0 means 100% BR LQ→νq
•Also sensitive to e.g. squarks in RPV (exactly the same!)
Nice competition between world’s accelerators:
•HERA, LEP and Tevatron
•At Tevatron: independent of coupling λ
