Analysis of the R-symmetric supersymmetric models including quantum corrections (1611.06622v1)

Abstract: We study the Minimal R-symmetric Supersymmetric Standard Model (MRSSM) at the quantum level. The thesis consists of two parts. First one treats about the electroweak sector of the model. Among others, it identifies the parameter region allowed by the electroweak precision observables. Since the MRSSM contains an $SU(2)_L$-triplet with a non-zero vacuum expectation value the emphasis is put on the calculation of the $W$ boson mass. To that end, a full one-loop calculation of $m_W$ augmented with the leading two-loop SM result is presented. The region is then checked against the measurement of the Higgs boson mass. For this, the full one-loop and leading two-loop corrections to the Higgs boson mass in the MRSSM are calculated. Devised benchmark points, consistent with both of these observables, are shown to fulfill also a number of additional experimental constraints like properties of the Higgs boson(s), $b$-physics observables and vacuum stability. Correlating all of these observables allows to put bounds on the parameters of the model. Second part of the thesis treats about the strongly interacting scalar sector. First, NLO QCD corrections to the production of scalar gluon (sgluon) pair at the LHC are calculated. A set of $K$-factors for a selected sgluon masses at 13 and 14 TeV LHC is presented. This calculation is applied to constrain the sgluon mass using 2015 data set from Run 2 of the LHC. To that end, a same-sign lepton search by ATLAS is recasted for the case of the production of the sgluon pair decaying to $t\bar{t}$ pairs. The analysis is reproduced with the help of shower Monte Carlo softwares and the program performing a fast detector response simulation. The analysis shows that already using 3.2/fb of integrated luminosity the exclusion limits from Run 2 are competitive with the 8 TeV ones.
