Experimental constraints on left-right symmetric models from muon decay.

چکیده
The TWIST Collaboration has completed a new measurement of the energy-angle spectrum of positrons from the decay of highly polarized muons. A simultaneous measurement of the muon decay parameters ρ, δ, and P(μ)(π)ξ tests the standard model in a purely leptonic process and provides improved limits for relevant extensions to the standard model. Specifically, for the generalized left-right symmetric model |(g(R)/g(L))ζ|<0.020 and (g(L)/g(R))m(2)>578 GeV/c(2), both 90% C.L.

Constraints on the Wr Mass and Cp-violation in Left-right Models
We update the constraints on the right-handedWR gauge boson mass, mixing angle ζ with the left-handed WL gauge boson, and other parameters in general left-right symmetric models with different mechanisms of CP violation. Constraints mostly independent of any assumption on the quark sector are obtained from a re-analysis of muon decay data. The best χ fit of the data gives gR/gL = 0.94 ± 0.09 fo...
متن کاملMuon Decay to One Loop Order in the Left-Right Symmetric Model
One loop corrections to the muon decay are studied in a popular and self-consistent version of the Left-Right symmetric model. It is shown quantitatively, that the corrections do not split into those that come from the Standard Model sector, and some decoupling terms. For a heavy Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking (SSB) scale of the order of a least 1 TeV, the contributions from the top quark have a...
متن کاملConstraints on left – right symmetric models from the process b → sγ
In left-right symmetric models, large contributions to the decay amplitude b → sγ can arise from the mixing of the WL and WR gauge bosons as well as from the charged Higgs boson. These amplitudes are enhanced by the factor mt/mb compared to the contributions in the standard model. We use the recent CLEO results on the radiative B decay to place constraints on the WL − WR mixing angle ζ and the ...
متن کاملRestrictions on Left - Right Symmetric Gauge Theories from the Neutral Kaon System and B Decays
We investigate the constraints imposed on the weak mixing angles by the K "-K " mass matrix and B meson decay in left-right symmetric gauge thee ries. In a class of such theories with manifest left-right symmetry the domain of Kobayashi-Maskawa angles allowed by the Ki-Kz mass difference has no overlap with-that allowed by B meson decay.
متن کاملParticle Physics Implications of Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay∗
Neutrinoless double beta decay is a sensitive probe of the patterns of neutrino masses and mixings if the neutrinos are Majorana particles as well as other new physics scenarios beyond the standard model. In this talk, the present experimental lower bound on the lifetime for ββ0ν is used to constrain the neutrino mixings and set limits on the parameters of the new physics scenarios such as the ...
