Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around how to create plots for determining the range of Higgs mass, specifically exploring the relationships between Higgs mass ('m_h') and parameters such as tan β and the spectral index ('n_s'). The context includes references to specific papers that detail these relationships.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Technical explanation
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant seeks guidance on plotting Higgs mass against tan β and spectral index, indicating a lack of clarity in their request.
  • Another participant questions the vagueness of the initial inquiry, suggesting a connection to minimal supersymmetry models but expressing concern over the lack of detail provided.
  • A participant references a paper that claims to have plotted Higgs mass against the mentioned parameters but struggles to find the necessary equations or formulas to reproduce the results.
  • Another participant points to a specific equation in a referenced paper that may provide clarity on the plotting process.
  • A participant mentions a different paper that is relevant to determining Higgs mass but expresses difficulty in understanding how to replicate the graphs presented in it.
  • One participant emphasizes the importance of following references in academic papers to trace the necessary information for plotting.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on the methods for plotting the graphs, and multiple views and uncertainties about the process remain evident throughout the discussion.

Contextual Notes

There are limitations in the clarity of the initial question, as well as potential dependencies on specific models and equations from referenced papers that are not fully elaborated upon in the discussion.

I am trying to do some plots for determining the range of higgs mass. Can somebody tell me how to plot higgs mass 'm_h' versus tan β ? or 'm_h' versus spectral index 'n_s' ?

Your question is hopelessly vague. What are you talking about? You mention tan beta which makes me think you are talking about some minimal supersymmetry model, but other than that there is little hope for anyone to understand what you want and therefore help you.
 


Dear kurros, thanks for taking interest. The authors of the following paper
http://arxiv.org/abs/1108.0070
claim that from this model, they have plotted higgs mass 'm_h' versus tan β and 'm_h' versus spectral index 'n_s' . But I am unable to find any equations/formulas through which I can reproduce them.
 


The authors explain what they are doing in their paper - see Eqn. 25.
 
thanks vanadium but the problem is that they determine the higgs mass in the following paper of theirs
arxiv.org/abs/1108.3762
but I am not able to understand how to plot the graphs in Fig 1 of this paper.
 
They say they calculate it along the lines of reference 14.

The references are there for a reason - you need to follow them like a trail of breadcrumbs to get the answer.
 
absolutely right...thanks bro
