ABSTRACT

A measurement is presented of dijet angular distributions in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV, using data collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$. For the first time, the dijet angular distributions, corrected for detector effects, are compared with the predictions of perturbative quantum chromodynamics at next-to-next-to-leading order, including next-to-leading-order electroweak corrections. While data are generally found to be in agreement with predictions, a small difference in shape of the normalized distributions is seen for dijet masses ranging from 2.4 to 4.8 TeV and above 6 TeV. The distributions are used to search for proposed signatures of quark compositeness, extra spatial dimensions, quantum black holes, dark-matter mediators, axion-like particles, and anomalous gluon couplings. The most stringent limits to date are set for most of these scenarios. Quark contact interactions are excluded at 95% confidence level (CL) up to a scale of 17 (37) TeV for destructive (constructive) interference in a benchmark scenario, valid to next-to-leading order in quantum chromodynamics, and in which only left-handed quarks participate. The coupling of axion-like particles to the gluon, $c_{ ext{g}}/f_{ ext{a}}$, is constrained to be lower than 0.42 TeV$^{-1}$ at 95% CL. The anomalous triple-gluon coupling, $C_{ ext{G}}/Λ^2$, in a standard model effective field theory is constrained to be lower than 0.0076 TeV$^{-2}$ at 95% CL.

研究动机与目标

  • 测试高 dijet 质量下的 dijet 角分布的扰动理论 QCD 预测,使用包括 NLO EW 校正的 NNLO 精度。
  • 将探测器水平分布展开到粒子水平并与理论比较。
  • 在多个 M_jj 区域内,通过归一化 χ_dijet 分布搜索超标准模型物理的信号。
  • 对 BSM 场景如夸克接触相互作用、ADD/ED、QBHs、DM 介导剂、ALPs,以及 SMEFT 的胶子耦合进行约束。

提出的方法

  • 在若干 M_jj 区间内,使用两条前导喷注(p_T 阈值为 500 和 200 GeV)测量探测器水平的 χ_dijet 分布。
  • 通过来自探测器仿真的响应矩阵将分布展开到粒子水平,以便与 NNLO+EW 理论进行比较。
  • 使用 μF=μR=M_jj 作为中心尺度,利用 fastNLO 中的 NNLOJET 计算 NNLO QCD 预测,并通过 6 种尺度变换和 100 个 NNPDF3.1 拷贝来评估尺度/PDF 不确定性。
  • 对 QCD 预测应用 NLO 电弱校正,并加入相应 SM 校正的 LO BSM 预测以获得 QCD+BSM 的期望值。
  • 通过将探测器水平数据与 QCD+BSM 预测进行比较,使用似然比和 CLs 方法来约束 BSM 模型。

研究问题

  • RQ1测得的归一化 dijet 角分布在所探索的 M_jj 和 χ_dijet 区域内是否与 NNLO QCD 加 NLO EW 校正一致?
  • RQ2角分布是否能揭示诸如夸克可组成性、额外维度、QBHs、DM 介导剂、ALPs 或 SMEFT 算子等 BSM 物理的非共振或共振信号?
  • RQ3从 dijet 角分布中,对不同手性结构的 CI 标度 Λ 的 95% CL 限制,以及 SMEFT C_G/Λ^2 与 ADD/GRW/ HLZ 参数的约束是多少?

主要发现

  • 归一化的 χ_dijet 分布总体上与 NNLO+EW 预测一致,在某些高-M_jj 区区域存在较小的形状差异。
  • 对于若干 BSM 场景(包括 quark contact interactions 的 Λ±_LL、Λ±_RR、Λ±_VV、Λ±_AA,以及 Λ±(V-A) 情景)给出迄今为止最严格的限制。
  • 耦合到胶子的 AXion-like particle 的耦合 c_g/f_a 在 95% CL 下被约束为小于 0.42 TeV^-1。
  • 异常三重胶子耦合 C_G/Λ^2 在 95% CL 下被约束为小于 0.0076 TeV^-2。
  • 具有 g_q 和 m_med 的 DM 介质场景被探测,灵敏度取决于 m_jj 与耦合。
  • 在分析框架内对 SMEFT 的六阶维 Operator 影响三重胶子相互作用进行约束。
