Exotic Higgs Decays with photon(s), missing transverse momentum and forward jets

A search is performed for Higgs-boson decays to neutralinos and/or gravitinos in events with at least one photon, missing transverse momentum (ETmiss) and two forward jets, a topology where vector boson fusion (VBF) production is enhanced. The analysis is based on a dataset of proton-proton collisio...

Sumario:A search is performed for Higgs-boson decays to neutralinos and/or gravitinos in events with at least one photon, missing transverse momentum (ETmiss) and two forward jets, a topology where vector boson fusion (VBF) production is enhanced. The analysis is based on a dataset of proton-proton collision data taken at √s = 8 TeV delivered by the Large Hadron Collider and recorded with the ATLAS detector, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb−1. The observation is consistent with Standard Model expectation and upper limits are set on the production cross section times branching fraction of the Higgs-boson to decay to neutralinos and/or gravitinos.
