CP violating couplings in Z → 3 jet decays revisited
نویسنده
چکیده
Possible CP violating effects in Z → 3 jet decays are investigated. The analysis assumes the presence of CP violating Zq ¯ qG couplings. The contribution of these couplings to the Z → q ¯ qG decay width is calculated for different cut algorithms, including nonzero quark masses. Various CP–odd observables are discussed and it is shown that their sensitivity can change significantly if one uses normalized or unnormalized momentum vectors for their construction. Optimal observables are proposed which allow to measure the new couplings simultaneously.

CP Violation in the 3 Jet and 4 Jet Decays of the Z Boson at GigaZ
We review CP-violating effects in Z → 3 jet and Z → 4 jet decays, assuming the presence of CP-violating effective Zbb̄G and Zbb̄GG couplings. Longitudinal beam polarization is included in the studies. We propose a direct search for such CP-violating couplings by using various CP-odd observables. The data of a future linear collider running at the Z-resonance in the so-called GigaZ option should g...

متن کاملChiral-invariant CP-violating Effective Interactions in Z Decays to three Jets
Tests of CP violation by appropriate momentum correlations in Z → 3 jets and in particular in Z → bb̄X probe CP-violating effective couplings – that manifest themselves as form factors – which conserve the quark chirality and quark flavour. By giving two examples we show that such couplings can be induced at one-loop order in extensions of the Standard Model with CP violation beyond the Kobayash...

We present studies of 3-jet nal states from hadronic Z decays recorded by the SLD experiment. A comparison of the strong couplings of light, c, and b quarks is made using 3-jet rates. We have performed a detailed study of ee ! b bg nal states, in which the quark, antiquark, and gluon jets are identi ed. The gluon energy spectrum, measured over the full kinematic range, is consistent with the pr...

We study the contributions of the CP violating anomalous WWγ interactions to b → sll. We obtain cutoff independent results on κ̃ and λ̃, by constructing an asymmetry for the process B → Kll, where the B and B̄ events are added. We show that a sample of 10 B → Kee events can yield a bound, |κ̃| < 0.42 at 90% C.L., which is much tighter than the recent constraint from D0. PACS number: 12.60Cn, 13.20....
