CERN LHC sensitivity to the resonance spectrum of a minimal strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking sector

We present a unified analysis of the two main production processes of vector boson pairs at the CERN LHC, VV-fusion and q (q) over bar annihilation, in a minimal strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking sector.

Sumario:We present a unified analysis of the two main production processes of vector boson pairs at the CERN LHC, VV-fusion and q (q) over bar annihilation, in a minimal strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking sector. Using a unitarized electroweak chiral Lagrangian formalism and modeling the final VLVL strong rescattering effects by a form factor, we describe q (q) over bar annihilation processes in terms of the two chiral parameters that govern elastic VLVL scattering. Depending on the values of these two chiral parameters, the unitarized amplitudes may present resonant enhancements in different angular momentum-isospin channels. Scanning this two parameter space, wt: generate the general resonance spectrum of a minimal strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking sector and determine the regions that can be probed at the CERN LHC.
