Discovering new gauge bosons of electroweak symmetry breaking at LHC-8

Abstract: We study the physics potential of the 8 TeV LHC (LHC-8) to discover, during its 2012 run, a large class of extended gauge models or extradimensional models whose low-energy behavior is well represented by an SUð2Þ 2 Uð1Þ gauge structure. We analyze this class of models and find that, with a combined integrated luminosity of 40-60 fb À1 at the LHC-8, the first new Kaluza-Klein mode of the W gauge boson can be discovered up to a mass of about 370-400 GeV when produced in association with a Z boson.

“…The study of gauge boson self-interactions may also provide evidence for the existence of new phenomena at a higher energy scale [13][14][15][16]. Possible new physics beyond the SM, expressed in a model independent way by higher-dimensional effective operators [17][18][19][20][21][22], can be implemented with anomalous triple gauge and quartic gauge couplings (AQGC), both of which contribute in triple gauge boson production.…”

“…This is measured at LHC and Tevatron, with the full dataset, to be slightly enhanced compared to the SM prediction [14][15][16][17], with the diphoton signal strength equal to 1.55 ± 0.31 at ATLAS and 0.78 ± 0.28 at CMS. While most of the efforts were focused on the Higgs physics associated with a new charged scalar or a vector fermion, both of which naturally arise in supersymmetry [18][19][20][21][22][23][24] or composite Higgs frameworks [25][26][27][28], less extensive research has been conducted recently on the possibility that a heavy charged vector boson be responsible for the observed deviations of the Higgs couplings from the corresponding SM predictions [9,[29][30][31].…”

“…Collider phenomenologies in this option were studied 3 in detail in Ref. [58][59][60]. This limit is theoretically interesting, because it can be regarded as an effective theory of strongly interacting Higgs sector [61][62][63] motivated by models of hidden local symmetry [64][65][66][67][68].…”
