Technidilaton Phenomenology and Prospects for Production

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-10-22 v2

Abstract

An effective Lagrangian for the technidilaton and its interactions with matter is constructed. Properties of the technidilaton are compared with those of the Higgs boson. Technidilaton decays and production channels are investigated. Main technidilaton decays are suppressed compared to the Higgs boson and the most important production mechanism is due to gluon fusion. Prospects for technidilaton production and detection at e+ee^+e^- colliders and the SSC are examined. LEP 1, LEP 2 and SSC can find or rule out a technidilaton with a mass up to 10 GeV10~GeV, 40 GeV40~GeV and 230 GeV230~GeV respectively.
