HEAVY HIGGS SEARCH STRATEGY

and are promising
dominant region
Small tanbeta region Higgs Production rate is huge Largely con-strained by and ππ
Allmost 100% decay into for small tanbeta. reso-nance search is available from 500 GeV. Small tanbeta region is constrained by search.
Large tanbeta region Bottom and lepton Yukawa couplings are much in-hanced. Constrained by . ππ
Desert region. Currently, no experimental search for this region is avail-able.
Perturbaive is broken
Interference effect is important

Interference effectively change
WHAT DOES IT AFFECT PHENOMENOLOGY?
Mainly..
1. Resonance shape changes
2. NWA should be modified
Also we need to consider following subtleties.
β’ Kinematic distribution of final state may be changedβ’ Smearing effect might be significant

Continuum bg is tree-level, Res. signal is loop level, so R is naturally loop suppressed. Dips can arise

SUMMARYVery simple and powerful parametrization for the in-
terference effect and resonance shape.
Heavy Higgs search with must be a Dip (or deficit) search.
Even nothingness can happen in which Higgs can hide.
Modified NWA: The correction factor must be included for the interference effect.
