Research for the
International Linear Collider
Professor Andy White
October 2005
What do we know now (2005)?
What don’t we know now (2005)!
- Why particles have mass
- Whether all four forces merge at high energies
- If we live in more than Four dimensions
- What is the Dark Matter
- What is the Dark Energy
- …?
Is there a Hiigs field that gives mass
to particles?
Contributions to the Higgs mass
Produces an infinite result due to summation over
momenta of particles in the circular loop.
A possible cure?
…add a contribution that
cancels the bad contributions:
But this requires new particles !
A better
merging if
SUSY is
included!
Many of our present questions should be
answered at the Large Hadron Collider
UTA is a member of the ATLAS
Collaboration
…but ATLAS discoveries will need
have detailed follow up and
verification before we know what
the real nature of the new physics is!

measurements – in a
difficult environment –
many multijet final
states.

physics for 1 or 2
detectors??

ILC – Detector Requirements
- Good momentum resolution e.g. for ZH with Z -> µµ
- Vertex resolution for flavor tagging c/b
- Good jet energy energy and jet-jet mass resolution
- Good coverage for missing energy
- Good separation of charged/photons/neutral clusters
-> Good pattern recognition, two track separation
Physics examples driving calorimeter
design
Higgs production e.g.
e+ e- -> Z h
Missing mass peak
or bbar jets
separate from WW, ZZ (in all jet modes)
Higgs couplings e.g.
- gtth from e+ e- -> tth -> WWbbbb -> qqqqbbbb !
- ghhh from e+ e- -> Zhh
Higgs branching ratios h -> bb, WW*, cc, gg, 
Strong WW scattering: separation of
e+e- -> WW -> qqqq
e+e- -> ZZ -> qqqq
and e+e- -> tt
Physics examples driving calorimeter
design
-All of these critical physics studies demand:
 Efficient jet separation and reconstruction
 Excellent jet energy resolution
 Excellent jet-jet mass resolution
+ jet flavor tagging
Plus… We need very good forward calorimetry for e.g.
SUSY selectron studies,
and… ability to find/reconstruct photons from
secondary vertices e.g. from long-lived NLSP -> G
Can we use a “traditional” approach to calorimetry?
(using only energy measurements based on the
calorimeter systems)

Target region for jet
energy resolution
Don’t underestimate the complexity!
Digital Hadron Calorimetry
Physics requirements emphasize segmentation/granularity (transverse
AND longitudinal) over intrinsic energy resolution.
- Depth  4 (not including ECal ~ 1) + tail-catcher(?)
-Assuming PFlow:
- sufficient segmentation (#channels) to allow efficient charged
particle tracking.
- for “digital” approach – sufficiently fine segmentation
(#channels) to give linear energy vs. hits relation
- efficient MIP detection (threshold, cell size)
- intrinsic, single (neutral) hadron energy resolution must not
degrade jet energy resolution.
