Prospects of Searches for Anomalous Hadronic Higgs Boson Decays at the LHeC

The future Large Hadron Electron Collider (LHeC) would enable collisions of an intense electron beam with either protons or heavy ions at the High Luminosity-Large Hadron Collider (HL- LHC). With a center of mass energy greater than a TeV and a high luminosity, the LHeC would be a new-generation collider for deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) and a significant facility for precise Higgs physics, complementing pp and electron-positron colliders. Anomalous hadronic decay signatures of the Higgs Boson, such as those into three or more partons, are challenging to detect at the LHC due to high background rates, but they may be observable at the LHeC. This paper presents the expected sensitivity of the LHeC for the decay channels $H \rightarrow 3jets$ and $H \rightarrow 4jets$, assuming an integrated luminosity of 1 ab$^{-1}$. Our analysis indicates that upper limits on the branching ratio of the Higgs Boson of 0.35 and 0.17 at 95% confidence limit for these processes are possible.

Studies on the $H\rightarrow bb$ cross section measurement at the LHeC with a full detector simulation

The future Large Hadron electron Collider (LHeC) would allow collisions of an intense electron beam with protons or heavy ions at the High Luminosity-Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). Owing to a center of mass energy greater than a TeV and very high luminosity (~1 ab{-1}), the LHeC would not only be a new generation collider for deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) but also an important facility for precision Higgs physics, complementary to pp and e+ e- colliders. Previously, it has been found that uncertainties of 0.8% and 7.4% can be achieved on the Higgs boson coupling strength to b- and c-quarks respectively. These results were obtained in the fast simulation frameworks for the LHeC detector. Focusing on the dominant Higgs boson decay channel, H to bb, the present work aims to give a comparison of these results with a fully simulated detector. We present our results in this study using the publicly available ATLAS software infrastructure. Based on state-of-the art reconstruction algorithms, a novel analysis of the bb decay could be performed leading to an independent verification of the existing results to an exceptionally high precision.

Tracing the anomalous $tqg$ and $tq\gamma$ flavor changing interactions at the FCC-he

We investigate the possible presence of Flavor Changing Neutral Current (FCNC) couplings of the top quark with gluon and photon through $e^-p\to e^-tj$ process at the Future Circular Collider in the proton-electron mode (FCC-he). Focusing on disentangling the effects of different couplings that could be present, we exploit the presence of the scattered electron, the angular distribution of which is sensitive to the type of coupling involved. Top quark polarisation accessed through the angular distribution of the decay lepton provides additional handle in identifying the nature of the couplings. Further, we demonstrate the potential of electron beam polarisation in distinguishing the left-handed and right-handed couplings of both gluon and photon separately. Considering an $e^-p$ collider of beam energies of $E_{e(p)} = 60~(50000)$~GeV at 2~ab$^{-1}$ integrated luminosity, couplings can be probed at the level of $10^{-2}$ with the corresponding branching fractions of ${\rm BR}(t\to u\gamma)\le 4 - 7 \times 10^{-6}$ and ${\rm BR}(t\to c\gamma) \le 1-2 \times 10^{-5}$, depending on if the coupling is right-handed or left-handed. The corresponding limits on the gluon couplings lead to ${\rm BR}(t\to ug)\le 1.7 \times 10^{-5}$ and ${\rm BR}(t\to cg) \le 3-4 \times 10^{-5}$.

Fingerprinting the Top quark FCNC via anomalous $Ztq$ couplings at the LHeC

A study of the top quark \emph{Flavour Changing Neutral Current} (FCNC) through $Z$-boson has been performed in the proposed future $e^-p$ collider for the energy, $E_{e(p)} = 60~(7000)$~GeV. We considered an effective theory where the anomalous FCNC couplings are of vector and tensor nature. The effect of these couplings is probed in the single top production along with the scattered electron. The polar angle $θ$ of the electrons coming out of the primary vertex in association with the top quark polarization asymmetries constructed from the angular distribution of the secondary lepton arising from the top decay, allow to distinguish the Lorentz structure of the coupling. From a multi-parameter analysis, we obtain a reach of ${\cal O} (10^{-2})$ in the case of $Ztu$ and $Ztc$ couplings at an integrated luminosity of 2~ab$^{-1}$ at 95\% C.L.

Constraining capability of $Z γh$ production at the ILC

Higgs boson couplings with gauge bosons are probed through $e^-e^+ \rightarrow Z γh$ in an effective Lagrangian framework. For this study the beam polarization facility at the ILC along with the typical center-of-mass energy of 500 GeV is considered. The reach of the ILC with an integrated luminosity of 300 fb$^{-1}$ in the determination of $CP$-conserving parameters is obtained. Sensitivity of the probe of each of these couplings in the presence of other couplings is investigated. The most influential coupling parameters are $\bar c_W=-\bar c_B$. Other parameters of significant effect are $\bar c_{HW}$ and $\bar c_{HB}$. A detailed study of the various kinematic distributions represents possibilities to disentangle the effect of some of these couplings.
