P. Grannis LCWS Jeju Korea August 2002
We study the precision obtainable for the SM2
(SPS1) Susy scenario and a light Higgs, based on
the Snowmass SM2 Run Scenario.

resolutions smear the edges.

E- E
- Making an box distribution mass measurement
requires - A given final state ( e- polarization) should be
fed by only 1 dominant reaction - Two body decay with C a stable observable SM
particle. - Neither of these conditions are generally true
for benchmark SM2 with large BRs into ts and nt
However, it is not necessary to have a box
distribution for determining mass any known
distribution will do. But if there are not sharp
edges, the precision is lower. (Recall that the
top quark mass was measured to within 4 in
semileptonic decays with a broad mass
distribution (using templates) with only about 40
events and S/B 2.

6The reaction overlap problem
Among all-leptonic ( missing energy) decays of
sparticle pairs, tt is the dominant final state.
It is fed by 9 different sparticle pair
reactions ! (and moreover the taus are not
stable, so the end points of the observed final
state (1 prong p , r ) are washed out.

7A new look at end points in SM2
Examine all final states involving 2, 4 or 6
leptons plus missing energy (with no hadrons in
final state). These should be low background
from SM sources, and relatively free of
cross-talk due to misidentification of leptons Do
the spreadsheet for the contributing reactions to
each channel more completely than before. Keep
the sub-reactions distinct e.g. ? c10 e
has different end points from ? c20 e and
must be treated separately. Assume no SM
backgrounds Begin to look at mass determinations
for cases without box distributions. Coupled
channel analyses fitting several distributions
with several unknown masses will be needed There
are many cross-checks get a mass from a
dominant channel, but can check it in subdominant
channels. channel specific final state
(e.g. eett) reaction specific 2 body
process (e.g. ee- ? c10 c20 )

Several reactions have dominant decays to c10
from combination of just the ee and mm final

have a dominant reaction with a primary decay to

13tt channel comments
Can do better than use 1-prong energy e.g.
larger of the two 1-prong energies
Or with the good calorimeter, see the p0 and can
use the r (p0 p ) energy for the dominant case
of t ? r nt These more sharply peaked
distributions offer better mass determination.
NEEDS a proper study, but I am guessing that the
c1 , c20 and masses can be found to 1
GeV, good enough to fix the energy for scans.

does not dominate any channel besides the
6t final state for which there are only 262

4.8K events Thus we would use the selectronL/R
and smuonL/R masses and the measured stau1 mass
to estimate the stau2 mass (model dependent) for
a subsequent energy scan. Nevertheless, since
stau2 contributes to many reactions, there is a
least a good cross-check of the mass estimate!

15Higher mass gauginos
The c30 is special as it has decays c30 ? c10 Z
(12) and c30 ? c20 Z (21) with Z ? ee/mm The
cross section at 500 GeV for eeR- ? c10 c30 is
16 fb. Taking into account the Z BRs , we
estimate that using the Z as an end point
particle (we scale from a Colorado group
measurement of c2 ? c1 Z ) dM(c30) 8.5 GeV
(statistics are limited but bknd negligible)
c40 The c10 c40 threshold is 460 GeV, but the
event rates are too small to allow a
measurement. c2 Threshold for ee- ? c1
c2- is 539 GeV. Do special run at 580 GeV,
trading luminosity for energy. Decays c2 ?
c1 Z (Z ? ee/mm) give 55 events, allowing
dM(c2) 4 GeV

NEEDS A STUDY!

17Threshold scans for sparticle masses
Martyn Blair (hep-ph/9910416) studied the mass
precision available from scans near two-body
thresholds (Tesla point RR1). For p-wave
threshold (gaugino pairs), s b1, while for
s-wave (sfermion pairs), s b3.
Martyn-Blair used 10 points perhaps not
optimal. Strategy should depend on events,
d(sBR)/sBR, backgrounds and b-dependence.
Mizukoshi et al. (hep-ph/0107216)
studied ne,nm,nt thresholds (low sBR and large t
decays) and found that 2 points on the rise and
one well above threshold was better. Blair at
Snowmass found that 2-point scans could be
optimal for dm and G (Benchmark SPS1a) can get
dG/G 30 for typical sparticles). Cahn
(Snowmass) did analytic study of mass precision
from scans vs N pts, spaced at DE and
found With L total scan luminosity and su
XS at upper end of scan. Good agreement with
MC results. Little improvement for Ngt3,
particularly for p-wave.

18Threshold scans
One needs to allocate scans carefully there is
a trade off between luminosity at 500 GeV (all
end points and searches) and use of lower energy
(at reduced luminosity). Do only those scans
that give the most restrictive information on
Susy model parameters. (In SM2, get some scans
for free as as thresholds overlap.)
Feng Peskin (hep-ph/0105100) study showed that
e- e- operation (both beams R polarized) at the
eReR threshold (b1) could give substantially
better dm(eR) than the e e- scan (b3), even
after inclusion of beamsstrahlung. We adopt
this idea in our run plan.
With DEbm beamstrahlung Dm(eR) 0.1 GeV
In establishing the mass precisions from scans,
we have scaled the dms from existing studies by
the ratio of assumed vs(500 GeV)Lt . (Probably
naïve to ignore details of backgrounds at
different benchmarks, and the effect of uncertain
sBRs.) (Used only dominant reaction/polarization,
so is conservative)
- Note that for scans, we need not identify
particular exclusive decays -- the total visible
cross section may be used. But beware
overlapping thresholds!

20mSUGRA parameter determination
The ultimate aim of the Susy program at the LC is
to determine the character of the Susy breaking
(GMSB, mSUGRA, AMSB cMSB, NMSSM, etc.), and
illuminate the physics at the unification scale.
This will require measurements of the sparticle
masses, cross-sections and branching ratios,
mixing angles and CP violating observables. A
start on this has been made G. Blair, et al. PRD
D63, 017703 (01) S.Y. Choi
et al., hep-ph/0108117, G. Kane, hep-ph/0008190.
Here we ask the more restricted question
Assuming we live in mSUGRA (as for benchmark
SM2), what are the Susy parameter errors ?
Mass resolutions quoted for our Run Plan give
- dm0 mainly from eR, mR masses
- dm1/2 mainly from c1 , c2 masses
- dA0 mainly from t1, t2 masses
- dtanb mainly from c1 , c10 masses
- Conservative, since additional info from t, H/A,
sL/R will give added constraints on mSUGRA
parameters

22Conclusinos
- Even for the physics rich scenarios of Susy
benchmarks SM2 and low Higgs mass, the Linear
Collider can do an good job on precision
measurements in a reasonable time. - Runs at the highest energy should dominate the
run plan -- to optimize searches for new
phenomena, and to get sparticle masses from
kinematic end points. - The details of the run plan depend critically
on the exact Susy model -- there is large
variation as models or model parameters vary.
It will be a challenge to understand the data
from LHC and LC well enough to sort out sparticle
masses/cross sections and predict the appropriate
threshold energies. - For Susy, it remains very likely that higher
energy will be needed to complete the mass
determination and fix the Susy breaking mechanism.
