Probing nonstandard top-quark couplings using spin correlation

چکیده

Top spin correlation has been shown to be nontrivial in hadronic top-quark pair production, and can be realized by the asymmetries of the decay products of the top quark and antiquark. We show in this work that the top spin correlation is a sensitive probe to the anomalous top-quark couplings beyond the standard model. Specifically, we look at the anomalous chromomagnetic and chromoelectric dipole moments, as well as a right-handed component in the weak decay of the top quark. We find a few measurable asymmetries formed by the decay products of the top-quark pair that vary in accord with the spin correlation. @S0556-2821~97!01507-5#

Top-quark spin correlation at Linear Colliders with anomalous couplings

We investigate the feasibility of probing anomalous top-quark couplings of Wtb, Ztt̄, and γtt̄ in terms of an effective Lagrangian with dimension-six operators at future e+e− linear colliders with a c. m. energy √ s ∼ 500 − 800 GeV. We first examine the constraints on these anomalous couplings from the Z → bb̄ data at LEP I and from unitarity considerations. We then consider in detail the effects ...

Anomalous Top Quark Couplings at the Future Linear Colliders ∗

In terms of an effective Lagrangian we investigate the possibilities of probing anomalous top quark couplings, t ¯ tH, γt ¯ t, Zt ¯ t and tW b at the future linear colliders. It is found that at a linear collider with a c. m. energy √ s ∼ 0.5 − 1.5 TeV and a high luminosity of 10 − 1000 fb −1 , e + e − → t ¯ tH is an ideal process in probing anomalous t ¯ tH couplings. We also study in detail t...

Precise determination of the Wtb couplings at LHC

Top pair production at LHC is the ideal place to search for nonstandard Wtb couplings in t → Wb → lνb decays. The lb forward-backward asymmetry in the W rest frame is very sensitive to σ couplings, and can spot one-loop QCD corrections to the decay vertex with more than 5σ statistical significance. We discuss the potential of this asymmetry to signal nonstandard γ and σ couplings and compare wi...

QCD corrections and nonstandard three vector boson couplings in W+W- production at hadron colliders.

The process p p (−) → W+W− + X → l1 ν1l−2 ν̄2 + X is calculated to O(αs) for general C and P conserving WWV couplings (V = γ, Z). The prospects for probing the WWV couplings in this reaction are explored. The impact of O(αs) QCD corrections and various background processes on the observability of non-standard WWV couplings in W+W− production at the Tevatron and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is...
