Top quark pair production and decay at a polarized photon collider
نویسنده
چکیده
Top quark pair production by (polarized) γγ collisions offers an interesting testing ground of the Standard Model and its extensions. In this Letter we present results for differential cross sections of top quark pair production and decay including QCD radiative corrections. We take into account the full dependence on the top quark spins. We give analytic and numerical results for single and double differential angular distributions of tt̄ decay products which are due to top quark polarizations and spin correlations in the intermediate state.

Probing the Top-Quark Electric Dipole Moment at a Photon Linear Collider
We probe the top-quark electric dipole moment (EDM) in top-quark pair production via photon-photon fusion at a photon linear collider. We show how linearly-polarized photon beams can be used to extract information on the topquark EDM without the use of complicated angular correlations of top-quark decay products. If the luminosity of the laser back-scattered photon-photon collisions is comparab...
متن کاملTop Polarization at a μ + μ − Collider 1
The top quark pairs produced at a polarized muon collider are in a (nearly) pure spin configuration. This result holds for all center-of-mass energies, and is insensitive to the next-to-leading order QCD radiative corrections. The decay products of a polarized top quark show strong angular correlations. We describe an interesting interference effect between the left-handed and longitudinally po...
متن کاملCP Violation in the Top-Quark Pair Production at a Next Linear Collider
We provide a detailed, model-independent, study for CP violation effects due to the T -odd top-quark electric dipole moment (EDM) and weak dipole moment (WDM) in the top-quark pair production via e+e− and two-photon annihilation at a next e+e− linear collider (NLC). There are two methods in detecting CP violation effects in these processes. One method makes use of measurements of various spin c...
متن کاملCharged Higgs Contribution into tb̄-pair Production in Hadronic Collisions
We investigate the charged Higgs boson contribution into tb̄-pair production in pp-collisions at LHC. It is shown that due to the H-boson exchange the total yield of tb̄ is modified significantly for small and large values of tanβ. However, for the small values of tan β one should expect also the production of right-polarized top quark contrary to pure left-polarized t-quark production through W-...
متن کاملTop quark pair production and decay at hadron colliders
In ongoing and upcoming hadron collider experiments, top quark physics will play an important rôle in testing the Standard Model and its possible extensions. In this work we present analytic results for the differential cross sections of top quark pair production in hadronic collisions at next-to-leading order in the QCD coupling, keeping the full dependence on the spins of the top quarks. Thes...
