Model independent constraints on leptoquarks from rare processes
We present model independent constraints on the masses and couplings to fermions of B and L conserving leptoquarks. Such vector or scalar particles could have masses below 100 GeV and be produced at HERA; we list the generation dependent bounds that can be calculated from rare lepton and meson decays, meson-anti-meson mixing and various electroweak tests.
متن کاملModel independent constraints on leptoquarks from μ and τ lepton rare processes
We perform a model independent analysis so as to constrain the leptoquark (LQ) models from negative searches for μ → eγ, μ → 3e decays (and analogous processes in the τ sector), and coherent μ−e conversion in nuclei. We considerably improve some constraints obtained by analyses known in the literature, analyses which we show have by far underestimated the LQ contributions to the μ→ 3e. In parti...
متن کاملModel-independent Constraints on Topcolor from Rb
We identify and compute the main corrections to Rb in Topcolor theories. They are due to the top-pions, the pseudo-Goldstone bosons associated with the chiral symmetry breaking responsible for the top quark mass, and amount to −(1− 4)%, independent of the details of the Topcolor model. We show that the cancellation of this effect against the contributions from Topcolor vector and scalar resonan...
متن کاملConstraints from Precision Electroweak Data on Leptoquarks and Bileptons
Explicit expressions are derived for the oblique parameters S and T in certain extensions of the standard model. In particular, we consider leptoquarks and bileptons, and find phenomenological constraints on their allowed masses. Leptoquarks suggested by the neutral and charged current anomalies at HERA can give improved agreement with both S and T . If bileptons are the only new states, the si...
متن کاملModel-independent Constraints on Reionization from Large-scale Cmb Polarization
On large angular scales, the polarization of the CMB contains information about the evolution of the average ionization during the epoch of reionization. Interpretation of the polarization spectrum usually requires the assumption of a fixed functional form for the evolution, e.g. instantaneous reionization. We develop a model-independent method where a small set of principal components complete...
