Flavour physics at large tan(beta) with a Bino-like LSP

The MSSM with large tan(beta) and heavy squarks is a theoretically well motivated and phenomenologically interesting extension of the SM. This scenario naturally accommodates the (g-2)_μanomaly and the upper bound on the Higgs boson mass. In a wide region of the parameter space, visible non-standard effects are expected in a few low-energy observables, such as BR(B->tau nu), BR(B->l+ l-), BR(B->Xs gamma), and BR(mu->e gamma). We analyse the correlations of these non-standard effects under the additional assumption that the relic density of a Bino-like LSP accommodates the observed dark matter distribution.

Quantum corrections to the MSSM h^0 b b-bar vertex: Decoupling limit

We consider the leading one-loop Yukawa-coupling corrections to the h^0 b b-bar coupling at O(m_t^2)in the MSSM in the decoupling limit. The decoupling behavior of the corrections from the various MSSM sectors is analyzed in the case of having some or all of the supersymmetric mass parameters and/or the CP-odd Higgs mass large as compared to the electroweak scale.

Non-decoupling effects of SUSY in the physics of Higgs bosons and their phenomenological implications

We consider a plausible scenario in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) where all the genuine supersymmetric (SUSY) particles are heavier than the electroweak scale. In this situation, indirect searches via their radiative corrections to low energy observables are complementary to direct searches, and they can be crucial if the SUSY masses are at the TeV energy range. We summarize the most relevant heavy SUSY radiative effects in Higgs boson physics and emphasize those that manifest a non-decoupling behaviour. We focus, in particular, on the SUSY-QCD non-decoupling effects in fermionic Higgs decays, flavour changing Higgs decays and Yukawa couplings. Some of their phenomenological implications at future colliders are also studied.

Flavour Changing Neutral Higgs Boson Decays from Squark - Gluino Loops

We study the flavour changing neutral Higgs boson decays that can be induced from genuine supersymmetric particles at the one-loop level and within the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We consider all the possible flavour changing decay channels of the three neutral Higgs bosons into second and third generation quarks, and focus on the Supersymmetric-QCD corrections from squark-gluino loops which are expected to provide the dominant contributions. We assume here the more general hypothesis for flavour mixing, where there is misalignment between the quark and squark sectors, leading to a flavour non-diagonal squark mass matrix. The form factors involved, and the corresponding Higgs partial decay widths and branching ratios, are computed both analytically and numerically, and their behaviour with the parameters of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model and with the squark mass mixing are analyzed in full detail. The large rates found, are explained in terms of the non-decoupling behaviour of these squark-gluino loop corrections in the scenario with very large supersymmetric mass parameters. Our results show that if these decays are seen in future colliders they could provide clear indirect signals of supersymmetry.

Optimal observables to search for indirect supersymmetric QCD signals in Higgs boson decays

In this work we study the indirect effects of squarks and gluinos via supersymmetric QCD radiative corrections in the decays of Higgs particles within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We consider a heavy supersymmetric spectrum and focus on the main nondecoupling effects. We propose a set of observables that are sensitive to these corrections and that will be accessible at the CERN Large Hadron Collider and Fermilab Tevatron. These observables are the ratios of Higgs boson branching ratios into quarks divided by the corresponding Higgs boson branching ratios into leptons, and both theoretical and experimental uncertainties are expected to be minimized. We show that these nondecoupling corrections are sizable for all the proposed observables in the large $\tanβ$ region and are highly correlated. A global analysis of all these observables will allow the experiments to reach the highest sensitivity to indirect supersymmetric signals.

Effective Higgs-quark-quark couplings from a heavy SUSY spectrum

In this paper we study the Yukawa Higgs-quark-quark interactions that are generated from radiative corrections of squarks and gluinos, in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We compute the corrections to the effective action for Higgs and quark fields that are produced by explicit integration, in the path integral formalism, of all the squarks and gluinos, at the one-loop level and order $α_s$. In addition, we consider the limit of nearly degenerate heavy squarks and gluinos, with masses much larger than the electroweak scale, and derive the effective Lagrangian containing all the relevant new local Higgs-quark-quark interactions. We show that these new interactions do remain non-vanishing, even in the case of infinitely heavy supersymmetric particles and, therefore, we demonstrate explicitly the non-decoupling behavior of squarks and gluinos in Higgs bosons physics. We present the set of new Yukawa couplings and finally derive the corresponding one-loop, order $α_s$, corrections to the Higgs bosons partial decay widths into quarks.

SUSY-QCD decoupling properties in H+ -> t \bar b decay

The SUSY-QCD radiative corrections to the Γ(H+ -> t \bar b) partial decay width are analyzed within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model at the one-loop level, {\mathcal O}(α_s), and in the decoupling limit. We present the analytical expressions of these corrections in the large SUSY masses limit and study the decoupling behaviour of these corrections in various limiting cases. We find that if the SUSY mass parameters are large and of the same order, the one loop SUSY-QCD corrections {\it do not decouple}. The non-decoupling contribution is enhanced by \tan βand therefore large corrections are expected in the large \tan βlimit. In contrast, we also find that the SUSY-QCD corrections decouple if the masses of either the squarks or the gluinos are separately taken large.

SUSY-QCD corrections to the MSSM $h^0 b \bar b$ vertex in the decoupling limit

We analyze the supersymmetric (SUSY) QCD contribution to the $h^0 b \bar{b}$ coupling at one loop in the Minimal Supersymmetric Model (MSSM) in the decoupling limit. Analytic expressions in the large SUSY mass region are derived and the decoupling behavior of the corrections is examined in various limiting cases, where some or all of the SUSY mass parameters become large. We show that in the decoupling limit of large SUSY mass parameters and large CP-odd Higgs mass, the $h^0 b \bar b$ coupling approaches its Standard Model value at one loop. However, the onset of decoupling is delayed when $\tanβ$ is large. In addition, the one-loop SUSY-QCD corrections decouple if the masses of either the bottom squarks or the gluino are separately taken large; although the approach to decoupling is significantly slower in the latter case.
