Extended Gauge Sectors at Future Colliders: Report of the New Gauge Boson Subgroup
نویسنده
چکیده
We summarize the results of the New Gauge Boson Subgroup on the physics of extended gauge sectors at future colliders as presented at the 1996 Snowmass workshop. We discuss the direct and indirect search reaches for new gauge bosons at both hadron and lepton colliders as well as the ability of such machines to extract detailed information on the couplings of these particles to the fermions and gauge bosons of the Standard Model. To appear in the Proceedings of the 1996 DPF/DPB Summer Study on New Directions for High Energy Physics-Snowmass96, Snowmass, CO, 25 June-12 July, 1996.

We consider the extended electroweak gauge group SU(2) 1 ×SU(2) 2 ×U(1) Y where the first and second families of fermions couple to SU(2) 1 while the third family couples to SU(2) 2. Bounds based an precision electroweak observables and heavy gauge boson searches are placed on the new parameters of the theory. The extra gauge bosons can be as light as about a TeV and can be discovered at future...
متن کاملExtended Gauge Sectors at Linear Colliders * †
Signatures of extended gauge models at high energy ee linear colliders are summarized. The phenomenology of models with extended gauge symmetries is particularly rich. The existence of new gauge bosons is one of the hallmarks of extended electroweak theories and their discovery would be a definitive signal for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). However, extra gauge bosons are not the sole ...
متن کاملHow to Study Weakly Coupled Neutral Vector Bosons
A weakly coupled new neutral gauge boson, forming a narrow resonance, can be efficiently produced at ee colliders through radiative return processes if the collider energy is larger than the gauge boson mass. This contribution analyzes the sensitivity of a future linear collider for weakly coupled gauge bosons and briefly discusses how, in case of discovery, its properties can be determined wit...
متن کاملWeakly coupled neutral gauge bosons at future linear colliders
A weakly coupled new neutral gauge boson forms a narrow resonance that is hard to discover directly in ee collisions. However, if the gauge boson mass is below the center-of-mass energy, it can be produced through processes where the effective energy is reduced due to initial-state radiation and beamstrahlung. It is shown that at a high-luminosity linear collider, such a gauge boson can be sear...
متن کاملOn signatures for the Littlest Higgs model in electron-positron colliders
There is a recent proposal of identifying the Higgs particle of the Standard Model as a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson. This new broken symmetry introduces new particles and new interactions. Among these new interactions a central role to get a new physics is played by the new neutral gauge boson. We have studied the new neutral currents in the Littlest Higgs model and compared with other extende...
