We study how the property of asymptotic helicity conservation (HCns), expected for any 2-to-2 process in the minimal supersymmetric model (MSSM), is realized in the processes $gg to gammagamma,gamma Z,ZZ,W^+W^-$, at the 1loop electroweak order and very high energies. The violation of this property for the same process in the standard model (SM), is also shown. This strengthens the claim that HCns is specific to the renormalizable SUSY model, and not generally valid in SM. HCns strongly reduces the number of non-vanishing 2-to-2 amplitudes at asymptotic energies in MSSM. Consequences at LHC and higher energy colliders are identified.

The resonance-continuum interference between the SM Higgs search signal process gg --> H --> VV (V=W,Z) and the irreducible background process gg --> VV is studied at leading order for integrated cross sections and differential distributions in pp collisions at sqrt{s}=7 TeV and 14 TeV for M_H=400 GeV. Leptonic weak boson decays are included, and realistic experimental selection cuts are applied.
We calculate the two-loop QCD corrections to $gg to ZZ$ involving a closed top-quark loop. We present a new method to systematically construct linear combinations of Feynman integrals with a convergent parametric representation, where we also allow for irreducible numerators, higher powers of propagators, dimensionally shifted integrals, and subsector integrals. The amplitude is expressed in terms of such finite integrals by employing syzygies derived with linear algebra and finite field techniques. Evaluating the amplitude using numerical integration, we find agreement with previous expansions in asymptotic limits and provide ab initio results also for intermediate partonic energies and non-central scattering at higher energies.
I review the calculation of the next-to-leading order behavior of high-energy amplitudes in N=4 SYM and QCD using the operator expansion in Wilson lines.
Within the MSSM and SM frameworks, we analyze the 1loop electroweak (EW) predictions for the helicity amplitudes describing the 17 processes $ggto HH$, and the 9 processes $ggto VH$; where $H,H$ denote Higgs or Goldstone bosons, while $V= Z, ~W^pm$. Concentrating on MSSM, we then investigate how the asymptotic helicity conservation (HCns) property of SUSY, affects the amplitudes at the LHC energy range; and what is the corresponding situation in SM, where no HCns theorem exists. HCns is subsequently used to construct many relations among the cross sections of the above MSSM processes, depending only on the angles $alpha$ and $beta$. These relations should be asymptotically exact, but with mass-depending deviations appearing, as the energy decreases towards the LHC range. Provided the SUSY scale is not too high, they may remain roughly correct, even at the LHC energy range.
In previous work, we have established that for any 2-to-2 process in MSSM, only the helicity conserving (HC) amplitudes survive asymptotically. Studying a large number of such processes, at the 1loop Electroweak (EW) order, it is now found that their high energy HC amplitudes are determined by just three forms: a log-squared function of the ratio of two of the (s,t,u) variables, to which a pi^2 is added; and two Sudakov-like ln- and ln^2-terms accompanied by respective mass-dependent constants. Apart from an additional residual constant, all high energy HC amplitudes, may be expressed as linear combinations of the above three forms, with coefficients being rational functions of the $(s,t,u)$ variables. We call this fact supersimplicity. Applying to the $ugto dW$ amplitudes, for which the complete 1loop expressions are available, we find that supersimplicity may be a very good approximation at LHC energies, provided the SUSY scale is not too high. SM processes are also discussed, and their differences are explored.
