Drell-Yan production of Heavy Vectors in Higgsless models
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the Drell-Yan production of heavy vector and axial-vector states of generic Higgsless models at hadron colliders. We analyse in particular the `+`−, WZ, and three SM gauge boson final states. In the `+`− case we show how present Tevatron data restricts the allowed parameter space of these models. The two and three gauge boson final states (especially WZ, WWZ, and WZZ) are particularly interesting in view of the LHC, especially for light axial-vector masses, and could shed more light on the role of spin-1 resonances in the electroweak precision tests.

Signatures of Heavy Vectors in Higgsless models
One or more heavy spin-1 fields may replace the Higgs boson in keeping perturbative unitarity up to a few TeV while at the same time account for the electroweak precision tests. We study the Drell-Yan production of heavy vector and axial-vector states in generic Higgsless models at hadron colliders. We analyse in particular the l+l−, WZ, and three SM gauge boson final states. In the l+l− case w...
متن کاملProduction of the top-pions from the higgsless– top-Higgs model at the LHC
The top-pions(π t ) predicted by extra dimensional descriptions of the topcolor scenario have similar feature with those in four dimensional topcolor scenario, which have large Yukawa couplings to the third generation quarks. In the context of the higgsless–top-Higgs(HTH) model, we discuss the production of these new particles at the CERN Large Hadron Collider(LHC) via various suitable mechanis...
متن کاملDiffractive production of Drell-Yan pairs and heavy flavors
Partonic interpretation of high-energy reactions is known to depend on a reference frame. Particularly, in the rest frame of the target Drell-Yan process looks like a freeing of the projectile ll̄ fluctuation, rather than qq̄ → ll̄ annihilation. The lightcone representation for Drell-Yan reaction is very similar to that in DIS and exposes a substantial contamination of soft interactions which turn...
متن کاملDrell{Yan Dileptons at RHIC
The study if the production of dilepton pairs is an important component of the research to be accomplished at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) due to each relevance to Quark-Gluon Plasma search and the investigation of hard QCD processes. We present an event generator program that produces Drell-Yan dilepton pairs for symmetric heavy ion collisions. It computes NLO cross sections incl...
متن کاملThe x F Dependence of ψ and Drell - Yan Production
We discuss the nuclear dependence of ψ and ψ ′ production in hadron-nucleus interactions as a function of longitudinal momentum fraction x F. Nuclear effects such as final-state absorption, interactions with comovers, shadowing of parton distributions, energy loss, and intrinsic heavy-quark components are described separately and incorporated into the model which is then compared to the prelimi...
