Higgs Bosons in supersymmetric U(1)' models with CP Violation    [PDF]

Mariana Frank, Levent Selbuz, Levent Solmaz, Ismail Turan
We study the Higgs sector of the U(1)'-extended MSSM with CP violation. This is an extension of the MSSM Higgs sector by one singlet field, introduced to generate the \mu term dynamically. We are particularly interested in non-standard decays of Higgs particles, especially of the lightest one, in the presence of CP violating phases for \mu_{eff} and the soft parameters. We present analytical expressions for neutral and charged Higgs bosons masses at tree and one-loop levels, including contributions from top and bottom scalar quark sectors. We then study the production and decay channels of the neutral Higgs for a set of benchmark points consistent with low energy data and relic density constraints. Numerical simulations show that a Higgs boson lighter than 2m_W can decay in a quite distinctive manner, including invisible modes into two neutralinos (h->\chi^0\chi^0) up to 50% of the time, when kinematically allowed. The branching ratio into h->bb, the dominant decay in the SM, is reduced in some U(1)' models and enhanced in others, while the branching ratios for the decays h -> \tau+ \tau-, h -> WW^* and h -> Z Z^*-> 4l are always reduced with respect to their SM expectations. This possibility has important implications for testing the U(1)' model both at the LHC and later at the ILC.
