Opening Comments
------------------------------------
1) nnHH (Junping Tian)
Status: (Analysis using SGV sample)
- New BG: nnZH and ttH
Created a new nnZH generator with ISR from Whizard and DBD beamshtrahlung.
Used the ttH generator for DBD by Miyamoto-san.
- Results
--> S=35.6, BG=27.6 (nnZH dominates)
--> delta sigma / sigma = 22% --> delta lambda / lambda = 19% (w/o weighting)
or 17%? (w/ weighting) with 2ab^-1 @ 1TeV
- Full simulation sample generation for ZHH @ 500 GeV:
--> ~10M done, ~15M more to generate.
--> reconstruction on going.
--> use ILC-DIRAC to boost the generation (thanks to S.Poss).
Next Step:
- Produce preliminary results by LCWS12.
- Update Higgs mass: mh=120 -> 125GeV
- Full simulation of ZHH and nnHH.

2) ZH analysis: H->tau+tau- (S.Kawada)
Status:
- Z->H->tau+tau- @ Ecm=250GeV 250fb^-1, P(e+,e-)=(+0.3,-0.8) (mh=120GeV)
BF(tau+tau-)=8.7%
- Full simulation study (w/ LOI samples)
1st step: (Z->ll)
lepton ID: Eecal/Etotal, E/p
Separation of leptons from Z and leptons from H: impact parameters, Elepton
FSR/bremsstrahlung recovery
2nd step: (H->tau tau)
tau mass
--> rerusts:
delta (sigma x BR) / (sigma x BR) = 8.85% (w/o requiring isolation for leptons)
Next step:
- Include full SM BG. (currently 4 leptons only) --> expected to be negligible.
- Include Z->qq --> probably a factor of 2 improvement?
- Results by LCWS12
C: What about using collinear approximation for taus from H and reconstructing H mass?

3) Radiative Type-I Seesaw Model with DM (H.Sugiyama)
- The Model
Majorana mass
1/2 m e^{-i phi) \bar(\nu_L^C} \ + .c
Vector-like mass for \nu_R
m_\nu \simeq y^2 <\phi^0>^2/M_R ~ 0.1eV = 10^-10 GeV
--> y small or M_R large
but we want coupling reasonably large and M_R small to make nu_R relevant to
collider physics.
--> M_R ~ 10^3 GeV with y generated radiatively so that y small ~ 10^-6.
--> Introduce U(1)_{B-L}
Fermion (i=1,2): nu_Ri, Psi_Li, Psi_Ri
Boson: eta, s^0 (w/o vev), sigma^0 (w/ vev)
with fractional (half integers) U(1)_{B-L} charges to Psi_Li, Psi_Ri, eta, and s^0
integer or 1/3 to SM particles.
--> Unbroken global U(1)_{DM} due to fractional charges:
U(1)_{B-L} (gauged) x U(1)_{DM}
--> The lightest becomes DM.
--> h0, H0 as physical higgs
--> <sigma> ~ 10TeV, Psi1 (DM) ~ mh/2
- Phenomenology
LHC: Z' (2TeV) : 70fb @ 14TeV
-> nu_R \bar{nu_R} : BF(Z' -> nu_R \bar{nu_R}) ?
followed by nu_R -> W^\pm l^\mp --> O(1) fb
Q: What about nu_R -> Z nu_L or h nu_L?
ILC: e^+e^- --> Psi2 \bar{Psi1}(DM) followed by Psi2 --> nu_R S1^0
and nu_R -> W^\pm l^\mp and S1^0 -> nu_L Psi1 (DM)
-> ~ 0.1fb
e^+e^- --> e^+ mu^- DM DM
-> ~ 1fb
Q: What about mu -> e gamma?

4) nnH @ 1TeV analysis (H.Ono)
Status:
- ZH: BR studies (bb, cc, gg)
- arXiv:1207.0300v1 --> submitted to EPJ
- Input to DBD physics chapter:
- Update mh to 125GeV.
- Use LHC HDECAY-based BRs instead of Pythia-based ones.
- Extrapolation from 120GeV to 125GeV: (250fb^-1@250GeV)
delta (sigmaxBR)/(sigmaxBR)
----------------
1.0% -> 1.1 (bb)
7.6% -> 8.5 (cc)
6.7% -> 7.2 (gg)
8.4% -> 7.2 (WW)
----------------
- nnH @ 1TeV
- mh=125GeV
---------------
BR bb: 57.8
cc: 2.7
gg: 8.6
WW*: 21.6
mm: 0.02
---------------
- Pol=(+/-0.8,-+0.2)
- two-photon hadron BG
--> mh distribution significantly affected by the BG.
--> Used kt instead of Durham for jet clustering.
--> R=1.0~1.3 looks suitable.
--> mh distribution improved but needs more tuning.
- Reconstruction finalized. Mass reconstruction process on going.
Next Step:
- 1TeV analysis for LCWS12 (priority).
C: Try 6jet clustering and then remove forward going two.
- Publication of H->bb,cc,gg: very soon.

5) Measurements of tan(beta) in 2HDMs (K.Tsumura)
- Introduction:
Softly Z2 broken 2HDM --> 5 degrees of freedom left
* m^2_H,A,H+/- ~ M^2 + lambda v^2/2
* sin(beta-alpha) <-> VVH
* tan(beta) = v2/v1
- LHC data suggests sin(beta-alpha) ~ 1?
- FCNC -> 4 types if extra Z2 parity is imposed.
- Type-II
- LHC's H search
production: bbH followed by H->tau tau
-> small mA large tan(beta) region has been excluded.
- ILC
Gamma_H,A propto tan^2(beta) -> not useful considering LHC limit
--> Not very much room left for ILC.
sigma(HA) propto tan^2(beta) -> not useful considering LHC limit
BR(H/A->bb) loses sensitivity to tan(beta) if tan(beta)>>1 since (H->bb becomes almost 100%)
- BR(h->bb): there is some region where we can determine tan(beta) rather precisely.
C: sing(beta-alpha) measurement and BR measurement are not statistically independent.
Q: What about a very light mH?
A: Maybe possible.

6) Higgs Portal (A.Yamamoto)
Status:
- Setup:
DM couples only to Higgs.
Signal: e^+e^- -> ZH -> q qbar DM DM
BG: eeZ, enW, nnZ, WW, ZZ
1^-1ab @ 250GeV, pol=(0.8,-0.3)
- Event Selection:
- Forward veto to eliminate eeZ, enW.
- Z mass cut
- Likelihood analysis: Zmass, cos(thetaZ), cos(theta_qq)
- Results
95% CL upper limit on BR(invisible)=3.4x10^{-3}
Next Step:
- Try analysis with H->ZZ*->4nu.
- Update the Higgs mass: mh=120 -> 125GeV
- Try different DM mass.
- e^+e^- -> ZH* -> Z DM DM -> q qbar DM DM (2 m_DM > mH)
with gamma_5 insertion to the DM DM HH vertex.

7) Strongly Coupled Higgs Sector in SUSY Models (T.Yamada)
- Introduction
mh=126GeV --> Naively this suggests the Higgs sector being weakly interacting.
Is there still room for strong coupling possibility?
- mu-term from strong dynamics. --> can explain why mu is not O(Mpl).
- strong 1st order EW phase transition possible.
- Landau pole at around 10TeV.
- UV completion: SUSY SU(2) gauge theory.
- UV Theory
SUSY SU(2)_H gauge theory with 6 doublets = 3 pairs of doublets w/ a new Z_2 parity
g_H (QCD-like) blows up at Lambda_H --> Below Lambda_H --> pion theory like
--> Can estimate lambda(Mz) which is about 2.
--> Hu, Hd, Phi_u, Phi_d: SU(2) doublet
N, N_Phi, N_Omega: SU(2) single
zeta, eta : SU(2) singlet
Omega^+/- : SU(2) singlet (2 charged singlets)
- Phenomenology
Under studies.
--> BR(h->gamma gamma), BR(h->gamma Z)
--> hhh coupling should significantly deviate from the SM value.
--> only way to see the effect of SU(2)_H
--> can modify BR(h->gamma gamma), m_H+^2 - m_A^2.
--> strongly 1st order EW phase transition possible.
