The Full Range of Predictions for B Physics From Iso-singlet Down Quark Mixing
نویسنده
چکیده
We extend the range of predictions of the isosinglet (or vector) down quark model to the fully allowed physical ranges, and also update this with the effect of new physics constraints. We constrain the present allowed ranges of sin(2β) and sin(2α), γ, xs, and ABs . In models allowing mixing to a new isosinglet down quark (as in E6) flavor changing neutral currents are induced that allow a Z mediated contribution to B − B̄ mixing and which bring in new phases. In (ρ, η), (xs, sin (γ)), and (xs, ABs) plots for the extra isosinglet down quark model which are herein extended to the full physical range, we find new allowed regions that will require experiments on sin (γ) and/or xs to verify or to rule out an extra down quark contribution.

Mixing and Decay Constants of Pseudoscalar Mesons: Octet-Singlet vs. Quark Flavor Basis
Although η−η mixing is qualitatively well understood as a consequence of the U(1)A anomaly in QCD together with a broken SU(3)F flavor symmetry, until recently the values of decay and mixing parameters of the η and η were only approximately known, e.g. values for the octet-singlet mixing angle between −20 and −10 could be found in the literature. New experimental data, especially for the reacti...
متن کاملMasses of Singlet and Non-singlet 0 ++ Particles
The 0 singlet state is an excitation of the vacuum. The complicated non-perturbative nature of the vacuum is one of the reasons that QCD is hard to solve at low energies. The precise computation of scalar meson masses via a first principles full QCD calculation would demonstrate that low energy QCD could be tamed. The work of many groups [1,2,3] has shown that the lightest 0 state is 1611(30)(1...
متن کاملA single source for all flavor violation
In a model proposed in 2012, all flavor mixing has a single source and is governed by a single “master matrix.” This model was shown to give several predictions for quark and lepton masses and mixing angles and for mixing angles within SU(5) multiplets that are observable in proton decay. Here it is shown that the same master matrix controls the flavor-changing processes mediated by a singlet s...
متن کاملIsospin-violating meson-nucleon vertices as an alternate mechanism of charge-symmetry breaking.
We compute isospin-violating meson-nucleon coupling constants and their consequent charge-symmetry-breaking nucleon-nucleon potentials. The couplings result from evaluating matrix elements of quark currents between nucleon states in a nonrelativistic constituent quark model; the isospin violations arise from the difference in the up and down constituent quark masses. We find, in particular, tha...
متن کاملSinglet quarks beyond the top at the Tevatron?
The first evidence for the top quark at the Tevatron may indicate a cross section higher than the QCD expectation. We consider the possibility that isosinglet heavy quarks may be contributing to the signal and discuss ways of testing this possibility. For example, a charge 2 3 singlet quark, approximately degenerate and mixing with the top quark, would effectively double the standard top signal...
