摘要: As discussed recently by Hooper and Tait, the singlino-like dark matter in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) extended by a singlet Higgs superfield can give a perfect explanation for both the relic density and the Pamela result through the Sommerfeld-enhanced annihilation into singlet Higgs bosons (a or h followed by h -> aa) with a being light enough to decay dominantly to muons or electrons. In this work we analyze the parameter space required by such a dark matter explanation and also consider the constraints from the LEP experiments. We find that although the light singlet Higgs bosons have small mixings with the Higgs doublets in the allowed parameter space, their couplings with the SM-like Higgs boson h(SM) (the lightest doublet-dominant Higgs boson) can be enhanced by the soft parameter A(kappa) and, in order to meet the stringent LEP constraints, the h(SM) tends to decay into the singlet Higgs pairs a a or hh instead of b (b) over bar. So the h(SM) produced at the LHC will give a multi-muon signal, h(SM) -> aa -> 4 mu or h(SM) -> hh -> 4a -> 8 mu.

摘要: If the sparticles are relatively heavy (a few TeV) while the Higgs sector is not so heavy (m(A) is not so large), the Higgs boson Yukawa couplings can harbor sizable quantum effects of sparticles and these large residual effects may play a special role in probing supersymmetry at foreseeable colliders. In this work, focusing on the supersymmetric QCD effects in the hb (b) over bar coupling (h is the lightest CP-even Higgs boson), we give a comparative study for the two popular supersymmetric models: the MSSM and NMSSM. While for both models the supersymmetric QCD can leave over large residual quantum effects in hb (b) over bar coupling, the NMSSM can allow for a much broader region of such effects. Since these residual effects can be over 20% for the hb (b) over bar coupling (and thus over 40% for the ratio Br(h -> b (b) over bar)/Br(h -> tau(+)tau(-))), future measurements may unravel the effects of heavy sparticles or even distinguish the two models.

摘要: In the next-to-minimal supersymmetric model (NMSSM) a light CP-odd Higgs boson is so far allowed by current experiments, which, together with a large tan beta, may greatly enhance the rare dileptonic decays B -> X(s)l(+)l(-) and B(s)-> l(+)l(-)gamma. We examine these decays paying special attention to the new operator allowed by the light CP-odd Higgs boson. We find that in the parameter space allowed by current experiments like CERN LEP II and b -> s gamma, the branching ratios of these rare decays can be greatly enhanced, and thus the existing experimental data on B -> X(s)mu(+)mu(-) can further stringently constrain the parameter space (especially the region with a superlight CP-odd Higgs boson and large tan beta). In the surviving parameter space we give the predictions for other dileptonic decay branching ratios and also show the results for the forward-backward asymmetry.
