TABLE 6Fit results on cosmological parameters ΩM, Ωk and w. The parameter values are followed by their statistical (σstat) andsystematic (σsys) uncertainties. The parameter values and their statistical errors were obtained from minimizing the χ2 ofEq. 3. The fit to the SNe data alone results in a χ2 of 310.8 for 303 degrees of freedom with a ∆χ2 of less than one forthe other fits. The systematic errors were obtained from fitting with extra nuisance parameters according Eq. 5 and
subtracting from the resulting error, σw/sys, the statistical error: σsys = (σ2w/sys

straints from combining SNe, CMB and BAO are consis-tent with a flat ΛCDM Universe (as seen in Table 6). Fig.15 shows the corresponding constraints in the ΩM − ΩΛplane.
Finally, one can attempt to investigate constraints ona redshift dependent equation of state (EOS) parameterw(z). Initially we consider this in terms of
w(z) = w0 + waz
1 + z, (10)
shown by Linder (2003) to provide excellent approxima-tion to a wide variety of scalar field and other dark en-ergy models. Later, we examine other aspects of timevariation of the dark energy EOS. Assuming a flat Uni-verse and combining the Union set with constraints fromCMB, we obtain constraints on w0, the present valueof the EOS, and wa, giving a measure of its time vari-ation, as shown in Fig. 16. (A cosmological constanthas w0 = −1, wa = 0.) Due to degeneracies within theEOS and between the EOS and the matter density ΩM,the SN dataset alone does not give appreciable leverageon the dark energy properties. By adding other mea-surements, the degeneracies can be broken and currentlymodest cosmology constraints obtained.
Fig. 16 (left) shows the combination of the SN datawith either the CMB constraints or the BAO constraints.

The results are similar; note that including either one re-sults in a sharp cut-off at w0+wa = 0, from the physics asmentioned in regards to Eq. 9. Since w(z ≫ 1) = w0+wa
in this parameterization, any model with more positivehigh-redshift w will not yield a matter-dominated earlyUniverse, altering the sound horizon in conflict with ob-servations.
Note that BAO do not provide a purely “low” redshiftconstraint, because implicit within the BAO data anal-ysis, and hence the constraint, is that the high redshiftUniverse was matter dominated (so the sound horizon

• Unification of forces. The idea that all elementary interactions have a unified origin goes back toEinstein, and has its modern form in grand unification and string theory. There is experimentalevidence for the unification of gauge couplings at short distances, and string theory generally predictsadditional interactions that may exist at the TeV scale.
• Hidden Sectors. Additional particle sectors that interact very weakly with standard model particlesare a generic feature of string theory, and may play an important role in cosmology, for example darkmatter.
• ‘Smoking Gun’ Particles. Some kinds of new particles give especially important clues about the bigquestions and ideas discussed here. Top partners are required in most solutions to the naturalnessproblem; additional Higgs bosons are present in many models of electroweak symmetry breaking;contact interactions of dark matter with standard model particles are the minimal realization of WIMPdark matter; and unified theories often predict new gauge bosons (W /Z ) that mix with the electroweakgauge bosons.
• The Multiverse. String theory apparently predicts a ‘landscape’ of vacua, and eternal inflation givesa plausible mechanism for populating them in the universe. The implications of this for particlephysics and cosmology are far from clear, but it has the potential to account for apparently unnaturalphenomena, such as fine-tuning.
These questions and ideas are summarized in Fig. 1-2, along with the connections between them.

well constrained by proton DIS data. The χ2 for the W asymmetry data does show a
significant increase as the magnitude of the nuclear corrections increases beyond its middle
value, indicating a preference for mild to medium nuclear corrections.
In this regard it is interesting to compare our results to those of the recent analysis
in Ref. [83], which included nuclear corrections for deuterium targets in DIS using a 4-
parameter, Q2-independent phenomenological function with the parameters varied in the
fit. The resulting correction factor, shown in Fig. 11 of Ref. [83], can be compared to those
in Fig. 2 above. Their fitted form lies between the curves for the CJ12min and CJ12mid
fits, as might be expected since these two fits have nearly identical values for χ2, while the
CJ12max value is higher. As noted above, much of the increase in χ2 for the CJ12max set is
due to the CDF W asymmetry data, which is also included in the fit of Ref. [83]. Although
this comparison is not exact, since our nuclear corrections are Q2 dependent [84] and those
in Ref. [83] are not, it is consistent with our observation that the nuclear model choices
made for the CJ12min and CJ12mid sets are preferred by the data.
The CJ12mid PDFs are shown in Fig. 3 at Q2 = 100 GeV2 with the PDF error bands
calculated as described in Sec. II E, on both logarithmic and linear x scales. The latter more
graphically illustrates the behavior of the PDFs at large values of x, where the uncertainties
from nuclear and finite-Q2 corrections are greatest. The error bands are shown in more
detail in Fig. 4, and compared to the CJ12min and CJ12max sets. It is clear that the
effects of nuclear corrections are strongest on the d PDF, with the others showing little or

高エネルギー物理学将来計画検討小委員会答申

本小委員会は日本の高エネルギー物理学の基幹となる大規模将来計画に関して、以下の提言をする。•LHCにおいて1TeV位までにヒッグスなどの新粒子の存在が確認された場合、日本が主導して電子・陽電子リニアコライダーの早期実現を目指す。特に新粒子が軽い場合、低い衝突エネルギーでの実験を早急に実現すべきである。一方でLHCおよびそのアップグレードによって間断なく新物理の探究を続けていく。新粒子・新現象のエネルギースケールがもっと高い場合には、必要とされる衝突エネルギーを実現するための加速器開発研究を重点強化する。•大きなニュートリノ混合角θ13が確認された場合、.....

FIG. 4.2.2: The squark mass versus gluino mass plane for points in the well-tempered region. Each
plot only includes points from the corresponding quadrant. Also plotted are contours corresponding
to 10 squark and/or gluino events for 30 fb1 integrated luminosity ats = 8 TeV [solid], 300 fb1
integrated luminosity ats = 13 TeV [dashed], and 3000 fb1 integrated luminosity at
s =
33 TeV [dotted].
squark masses tend to be larger than the gluino mass because larger values ofM0 are required
in order to achieve a Higgs boson mass of 125 GeV. The squarks in these models will lie
outside the range of the 13 TeV LHC. Only a small range of these models will be testable
at colliders through the direct production of gluinos.

Figure 1: RG evolution of the Higgs self coupling, for dierent Higgs masses for the central value of mt
and s, as well as for ±2 variations of mt (dashed lines) and s (dotted lines). For negative values
of , the life-time of the SM vacuum due to quantum tunneling at zero temperature is longer than the
age of the Universe as long as remains above the region shaded in red, which takes into account the
finite corrections to the eective bounce action renormalised at the same scale as (see [11] for more
details).
2 Stability and metastability bounds
We first present the analysis on the Higgs instability region at zero temperature. We are
concerned with large field field values and therefore it is adequate to neglect the Higgs mass
term and to approximate the potential of the real field h contained in the Higgs doublet H =
(0, v + h/2) as
V = (|H|2 v2)2
4h4 . (1)
Here v = 174 GeV and the physical Higgs mass is mh = 2v at tree level. Our study here
follows previous state-of-the-art analyses (see in particular [9, 11, 12]). We assume negligible
corrections to the Higgs eective potential from physics beyond the SM up to energy scales of
the order of the Planck mass. We include two-loop renormalization-group (RG) equations for all
the SM couplings, and all the known finite one and two-loop corrections in the relations between

should, ideally, be immune to contamination from beyond the Standard Model physics – a scenario that isconceivable if there is top-like BSM physics at the energy scale close to 2mt. For example, if mt is determinedfrom the total cross-section pptt and if the measurement of pp tt receives unknown contributions fromtop-like BSM physics, the extracted value of the top quark mass will be smaller than the true mt. Thisscenario can occur for example in SUSY models with light stop squarks mt mt that are still not excludedexperimentally (cf. discussion in Section 1.6.1.2).
Methods for top quark mass determination that are based on the analysis of kinematic distributions of topquark decay products are as close to an ideal method as possible. The main reason is that, up to small eectsrelated to selection cuts and combinatorial backgrounds, the kinematic variables involved in the analysis canoften be chosen to be Lorentz invariant in which case they decouple the production stage from the decaystage. This minimizes impact of any physics, BSM or SM, related to tt production on the top quark massmeasurement. Some of these methods are also insensitive to the physics of top quark decay and are entirelydriven by energy-momentum conservation. We will describe two of the methods that belong to this category– the “end-point” method developed recently by the CMS collaboration [14] and the “J/ method suggestedlong ago in Ref. [15].
The idea of the end-point method is based on the observation that the invariant mass distribution of a leptonand a b-jet contains a relatively sharp edge whose position is correlated with mt. Therefore, by measuringthe position of this end-point, one can determine the top quark mass. The number of events close to the end-point is fitted to a linear combination of a flat background and a linear function Nlb Nbck + S(mlb m0),where m0 gives the position of the end-point. The attractive feature of this method is that it is (almost)independent of any assumption about the matrix element and that it clearly measures either the pole massor some “kinematic” mass which is close to it. At the small expense of being more model-dependent,one can actually improve on this method by utilizing not only the position of the end-point but also theshape of the mlb distribution. Note that away from the kinematic end-point the shape of mlb distributionis accurately predicted through NLO QCD including o-resonance contributions and signal-backgroundinterferences [16, 17]. Close to the end-point re-summed predictions are probably required and are notavailable at present.
Nevertheless, even without potential improvements, the end-point method oers an interesting alternativeto conventional methods. Uncertainties in mt that one may hope to achieve are estimated in Table 1-2.We note that by using the end-point method we do gain in precision by going to high-luminosity LHC.Our projections show that the error as small as 0.5 GeV can be reached. The dominant contributions tosystematic uncertainty for each of these studies are the jet-energy scale and hadronization uncertainties.Similar to estimates of mt that can be achieved using conventional methods, we add 300 MeV to thesystematic uncertainty in Table 1-2, to account for unforeseen sources of the systematics.

Only SMproduction modes and decays are considered in the fit. The derived precisions on the Higgs total width arealso included. The expected precision ranges from 5 15% for 300 fb1 and 2 10% for 3000 fb1. Theyare limited by systematic uncertainties, particularly theoretical uncertainties on production and decay rates.Statistical uncertainties are below one percent in most cases. Note that the sensitivity to u is derived fromthe ttH production process and only H and H bb decays have been included in the projection.
The fit is extended to allow for BSM decays while restricting the Higgs coupling to vector bosons not toexceed their SM values (W ,Z 1). The resulting upper limit on the branching ratio of BSM decay isincluded in the table. Note that the BRBSM limit is derived from the visible decays of Table 1-13 and isindependent of the limit on BRinv from the search of ZH with H invisible.

cal configuration†, which is characterized by a large di-higgs invariant mass, but with a potentially smaller Higgss-channel suppression than encountered in the back-to-back configuration of gg → hh.The goal of this paper is to provide a comparative
study of the prospects of the measurement of the trilinearHiggs coupling applying contemporary simulation andanalysis techniques. In the light of recent LHC measure-ments, we focus our eventual analyses on mh = 125 GeV.However, we also put this particular mass into the con-text of a complete discussion of the sensitivity towardsthe trilinear Higgs coupling over the entire Higgs massrange mh
<∼ 1 TeV. As we will see, mh ≃ 125 GeV is arather special case. Since Higgs self-coupling measure-ments involve end-of-lifetime luminosities we base ouranalyses on a center-of-mass energy of 14 TeV.We begin with a discussion of some general aspects
of double Higgs production, before we review inclusivesearches for mh = 125 GeV in the pp → hh+X channelin Sec. II C. We discuss boosted Higgs final states in pp →hh+X in Sec. II D before we discuss pp → hh+j+X withthe Higgses recoiling against a hard jet in Sec. III. Doingso we investigate the potential sensitivity at the parton-and signal-level to define an analysis strategy before weapply it to the fully showered and hadronized final state.We give our conclusions in Sec. IV.
II. HIGGS PAIR PRODUCTION AT THE LHC
A. General Remarks
Inclusive Higgs pair production has already been stud-ied in Refs. [14–17] so we limit ourselves to the detailsthat are relevant for our analysis.Higgs pairs are produced at hadron colliders such as
the LHC via a range of partonic subprocesses, the mostdominant of which are depicted in Fig. 1. An approxima-tion which is often employed in phenomenological studiesis the heavy top quark limit, which gives rise to effective
†The phenomenology of such configurations can also be treated sep-arately from radiative correction contributions to pp → hh+X.

Studying these operators in the hh+X final state shouldin principle allow the Higgs self-coupling to be con-strained via the relative contribution of trilinear andquartic interactions to the integrated cross section. Notethat the operators in Eq. (3) have different signs whichindicates important interference between the (nested)three- and four point contributions to pp → hh + X al-ready at the effective theory level.On the other hand, it is known that the effective theory
of Eq. (3) insufficiently reproduces all kinematical prop-erties of the full theory if the interactions are probedat momentum transfers Q2 >∼ m2
t [11] and the massivequark loops are resolved. Since our analysis partly re-lies on boosted final states, we need to take into accountthe full one-loop contribution to dihiggs production torealistically model the phenomenology.
B. Parton-level considerations
In order to properly take into account the full dynam-ics of Higgs pair production in the SM we have imple-mented the matrix element that follows from Fig. 1 inthe Vbfnlo framework [21] with the help of the Fey-
nArts/FormCalc/LoopTools packages [22], withmodifications such to include a non-SM trilinear Higgscoupling‡. Our setup allows us to obtain event files ac-cording to the Les Houches standard [23], which can bestraightforwardly interfaced to parton showers. Decaycorrelations are trivially incorporated due to the spin-0nature of the SM Higgs boson.
‡The signal Monte Carlo code underlying this study is planned tobecome part of the next update of Vbfnlo and is available uponrequest until then.

Three leptons (3): where leptons () refers to electrons and muons including those from the -leptondecays but do not include hadronically-decaying -leptons. This final state targets both the WZ-mediated and Wh-mediated simplified models.
One lepton + two (12): where the one lepton () plus two hadronically decaying taus () signatureis used to target the Wh-mediated simplified model.
The background for a signal with 3 or 12 and large EmissT is dominated by the irreducible processes

The assumed systematic uncertainty of 30% on the estimated sum of allbackgrounds is expected to hold under the hypothesis that the theoretical uncertainty on the tribosonbackgrounds is at the level of that of the diboson backgrounds for 14 TeV. The reducible process tt isalso an important background, producing two prompt leptons from the W decays and a third when oneof the b-quarks in the event decays semileptonically and is mis-identified as a prompt, isolated lepton.In the 12 channel, the reducible processes tt, W+jets, Z+jets are important backgrounds where jets aremis-identified as taus.
3.1 WZ-mediated Signal Region Selection
Candidate leptons are selected with pT larger than 10 GeV and ||< 2.47 (2.4) for electrons (muons).Candidate jets are selected with the anti-kt algorithm with a radius parameter of R
()2 + ()2 =
0.4, with pT > 20 GeV and ||< 2.5. Jets are required to be separated from candidate electrons withR(e, jet) > 0.2. Jets are tagged as originating from b-decays, “b-tagged jets”, with the chosen workingpoint of the b-tagging algorithm correctly identifying b-quark jets in simulated tt samples with an averageeciency of 70%, with a light-flavour jet misidentification probability of about 1% (parametrised as afunction of jet pT and ).
Leptons forming low mass Same-Flavour Opposite-Sign (SFOS) lepton pairs (invariant mass mSFOS <12 GeV) are discarded to remove leptons from low-mass resonances. Leptons are required to be isolated

fied models can be seen in Figure 4. In the case of the WZ-mediated simplified models and the luminosityscenario of 300 fb1, the exclusion contour reaches 840 GeV in ±1 ,
02 mass, while for the high luminosity
scenario with 3000 fb1, the contour extends as far as 1.1 TeV in ±1 , 02 mass. The discovery contour for
300 fb1 reaches 560 GeV in ±1 , 02 mass, and 820 GeV for the high luminosity scenario with 3000 fb1.

3.3 3 Wh-mediated Signal Region Selection
Leptons are selected as in Section 3.1. Events are selected with exactly three leptons and events with aSame-Flavour Opposite-Sign (SFOS) lepton pair present among the three leptons are rejected to suppressthe WZ background. This SFOS veto mainly selects Wh-mediated ±1
02 signal events where the hWW.
Events with b-tagged jets are vetoed to suppress tt and tt + V backgrounds. The WZ and tt samples aregenerated with a Emiss
T > 50 GeV filter, and so a requirement of EmissT > 100 GeV is imposed after
smearing. A requirement is made on the invariant mass of the two OS leptons closest in R, mminROS , to
reject the tt and WWW backgrounds. Large mT formed from each of the three leptons, mT(1), mT(2)and mT(3), is required to reduce the contributions from the tt and triboson backgrounds. The thresholdson mminR
OS , mT(1), mT(2) and mT(3) are optimised for high ZN . Four signal regions are defined forthe Wh-mediated simplified model: two loose regions “E” and “F” optimised for small mass splittingscenarios, a tight region “G” optimised for large mass splitting scenarios, and a very tight region “H”optimised for large mass splittings in the 3000 fb1 scenario, and these are summarised in Table 3.
3.4 12 Wh-mediated Signal Region Selection
Leptons and jets are selected as in Section 3.1. Candidate taus are selected with pT larger than 20 GeVand ||< 2.47. All taus are requested to be separated from candidate jets (jets are discarded if R(, jet) <0.2) and leptons (taus are discarded if R(, ) < 0.2). Due to limited statistics in some MC samples, MCevents are used 10 times with dierent seeds used for the reconstruction parametrisation. The events arethen weighted by 1/10 to account for this eect.

contour reaches 650 GeV in ±1 , 02 mass for the 300 fb1 scenario, and 940 GeV in ±1 ,
02 mass for the
3000 fb1 scenario. The discovery contour for 3000 fb1 reaches 650 GeV in ±1 , 02 mass, however,
a discovery contour is not achieved for the 300 fb1 scenario. For the 8 TeV analysis, the exclusioncontour reaches 150 GeV in ±1 ,
02 mass and 17 GeV in 0
1 mass [20].In the case of the 12 channel, the exclusion contour reaches 550 GeV in ±1 ,
02 mass for the
3000 fb1 scenario. An exclusion contour for 300 fb1 is not achieved, neither are discovery contoursfor either luminosity scenario. A statistical fluctuation in the WW background sample used for the anal-ysis leads to a conservative estimate of the WW background of 3.5 events. Using an ABCD methodwith the Emiss
T and |pT (1)| + |pT (2)| variables, the WW estimate is reduced to 0.1 events and the limitsimprove by about 50 GeV in ±1 , 0
2 and 01 mass. Despite the weak sensitivity to Wh-mediated scenarios
with h final states, the 12 channel gives excellent complementarity to 3 final states.

4 Strongly produced supersymmetry
Strongly produced SUSY particles are expected to have the highest production cross-section of all SUSYprocesses, provided they are light enough to be produced at the LHC. In this study, simplified modelsof gluino and squark pair production are considered. The gluino decays directly into two quarks and theLSP (0
1) with 100% branching ratio, as shown in Figure 6. The squark decays into a quark and the LSP(0
1) with 100% branching ratio. In both cases signal events are characterised by many jets, large EmissT
and no leptons.
4.1 Background processes
The SM background for a signal with many jets and large EmissT is dominated by Z+jets, W+jets, tt and
diboson production. Based on 8 TeV published results [22], the diboson background is set to 10% of thetotal of the other SM backgrounds, multijet production is assumed to be suppressed to negligible levelsby dedicated signal region requirements, and the uncertainty on the total SM background is assumed tobe 10%.

Three leptons (3): where leptons () refers to electrons and muons including those from the -leptondecays but do not include hadronically-decaying -leptons. This final state targets both the WZ-mediated and Wh-mediated simplified models.
One lepton + two (12): where the one lepton () plus two hadronically decaying taus () signatureis used to target the Wh-mediated simplified model.
The background for a signal with 3 or 12 and large EmissT is dominated by the irreducible processes
WZ(), tribosons and tt + Z/W. The assumed systematic uncertainty of 30% on the estimated sum of allbackgrounds is expected to hold under the hypothesis that the theoretical uncertainty on the tribosonbackgrounds is at the level of that of the diboson backgrounds for 14 TeV. The reducible process tt isalso an important background, producing two prompt leptons from the W decays and a third when oneof the b-quarks in the event decays semileptonically and is mis-identified as a prompt, isolated lepton.In the 12 channel, the reducible processes tt, W+jets, Z+jets are important backgrounds where jets aremis-identified as taus.

Examples of BSM models with enhanced FCNC top decay ratesare quark-singlet (QS) models, two-Higgs doublet (2HDM) and flavor-conserving two-Higgsdoublet (FC 2HDM) models, the minimal supersymmetric model (MSSM), SUSY models withR-parity violation (/R), the topcolor assisted technicolor model (TC2) [28], and models withwarped extra dimensions (RC) [29]. FCNC decay are sought through t q and t qZchannels where q is either an up or a charm quark. Table 8 shows the Standard Model andBSM decay rates in the various channels. The best current direct search limits are 3.2% for t q [30] and 0.21% for t Zq [31]. A model-independent approach to top quark FCNC decaysusing an eective Lagrangian [32, 33, 34] is used here to evaluate the sensitivity of ATLAS inthe HL-LHC era. Even if the LHC does not measure the top quark FCNC branching ratios, itcan test some of these models or constrain their parameter space, and improve significantly thecurrent experimental limits on the FCNC branching ratios.

Examples of BSM models with enhanced FCNC top decay ratesare quark-singlet (QS) models, two-Higgs doublet (2HDM) and flavor-conserving two-Higgsdoublet (FC 2HDM) models, the minimal supersymmetric model (MSSM), SUSY models withR-parity violation (/R), the topcolor assisted technicolor model (TC2) [28], and models withwarped extra dimensions (RC) [29]. FCNC decay are sought through t q and t qZchannels where q is either an up or a charm quark. Table 8 shows the Standard Model andBSM decay rates in the various channels. The best current direct search limits are 3.2% for t q [30] and 0.21% for t Zq [31]. A model-independent approach to top quark FCNC decaysusing an eective Lagrangian [32, 33, 34] is used here to evaluate the sensitivity of ATLAS inthe HL-LHC era. Even if the LHC does not measure the top quark FCNC branching ratios, itcan test some of these models or constrain their parameter space, and improve significantly thecurrent experimental limits on the FCNC branching ratios.
Top quark FCNC decays are sought in top quark pair production in which one top (or anti-

Templates of the m spectrum are constructed for the background plus varying amounts ofsignal at dierent resonance masses and cross sections. The Sequential Standard Model (SSM)ZS S M boson, which has the same fermionic couplings as the Standard Model Z boson, is usedas the signal template. The m distribution, for events above 200 GeV, and the resulting limitsas a function of ZS S M pole mass are shown in Figs. 16 and 17 for the ee and µµ channels,respectively.
The 95% CL expected limits in the absence of signal, using statistical errors only, are shownin Table 7. The increase of a factor of ten, from 300 to 3000 fb1 in integrated luminosity raisesthe sensitivity to high-mass dilepton resonances by up to 1.3 TeV.

8 Flavor-Changing-Neutral-Currents in Top-Quark Decays
Within the Standard Model, flavor-changing-neutral-current (FCNC) decays are forbidden attree level due to the GIM mechanism [22], and highly suppressed at loop level with branchingfractions below 1012 [23, 24, 25, 26], which are inaccessible even at HL-LHC. Therefore anyobservation of top quark FCNC decays would be a definite indication of new physics. FCNCdecays have been sensitively searched for in lighter quarks, placing strong constraints on manymodels of BSM physics. Tests of FCNC in the top sector have only recently become sensitiveenough to probe interesting BSM phase space in which the FCNC branching fraction can be

The statistical analysis is performed by a likelihood fit of templates of these distributions, usingbackground plus varying amounts of signal, to the simulated data. The HT and mtt distribu-tions and the resulting limits as a function of the gKK pole mass for the dilepton and lepton+jetschannel are shown in Fig. 14 and Fig. 15, respectively.
The 95% CL expected limits in the absence of signal, using statistical errors only, are shownin Table 6. The increase of a factor of ten in integrated luminosity, from 300 to 3000 fb1 raisesthe sensitivity to high-mass tt resonances by up to 2.4 TeV.

7.2 Searches for Dilepton Resonances
For studies of the sensitivity to a Z boson [21], the dielectron and dimuon channels are con-sidered separately since their momentum resolutions scale dierently with pT and the detectoracceptances are dierent. The background is dominated by the SM Drell-Yan production, whilett and diboson backgrounds are substantially smaller. Therefore, only the Drell-Yan backgroundis considered in this study. There is an additional background from non-prompt electrons due
