New physics opportunities in triangle singularity
In this paper, we show that loop-induced processes involving new physics particles can readily satisfy Landau Equation and trigger triangular singularities at high-energy colliders, leading to fully visible Standard Model final states. In addition, a t-channel triangular singularity can also occur during particle scattering processes that may extend to low momentum exchange. We discuss several typical scenarios in supersymmetric and extended Higgs models, and three types of final-state kinematic features at the collider. Four-particle vertices in new physics can play a significant role in high energy diagrams. We identify an “everything on shell” triangular singularity diagram only involving bosonic couplings, which has the potential to completely avoid large virtuality suppression. We further show that such a virtuality-free diagram is missing in the Standard Model at electroweak scale, and it becomes available in new physics models.
