CP Violation , Top Quarks and the Tevatron Upgrade

چکیده
In order to observe a signal of possible CP violation in top-quark couplings, we study top-quark production and decay under the conditions of the Tevatron upgrade. Transverse energy asymmetries sensitive to CP violation are defined. Applying the recently proposed optimal method, we calculate the statistical significance for the direct observation of CP violation in the production and subsequent decay of top quarks.

The BTeV experiment at the Tevatron collider
The BTeV experiment is designed to study beauty and charm physics at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. Our goals are to make an exhaustive search for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) and make precise measurements of the SM parameters. The important measurements to make involve CP violation, mixing, and rare decays of hadrons containing b or c quarks. The CP violation in the SM originates fr...
متن کاملCP Violation via Top Quark Anomalous Interaction at the Fermilab Tevatron
Expecting the forthcoming experiment at the upgraded Fermilab Tevatron, we calculated CP -violating polarization asymmetry of tt̄, ACP ≡ [ σ(pp̄ → t(−)t̄(−)X)−σ(pp̄ → t(+)t̄(+)X) ] / σ(pp̄ → tt̄X), due to possible anomalous chromomagnetic (κ) and chromoelectric (κ̃) couplings of the gluon to the top quark. Since κ and κ̃ are sensitive to a contribution from new physics beyond standard model, this observ...
متن کاملCP Violation in Top Quark Pair Production at Hadron Colliders
CP violating effects in top quark pair production at the future 2 TeV pp̄ Tevatron and 14 TeV pp LHC colliders are investigated. We study three kinds of CP violating sources: the supersymmetric CP-odd phase of the stop trilinear soft breaking term: arg(At), the CP-odd parameter in two-Higgs doublet extensions of the standard model(2HDM), and the model-independent top quark chromoelectric dipole ...
متن کاملFuture B Experiments from the Btev/lhc-b Perspective
Many measurements are necessary in the program of studying mixing, CP violation and rare decays of b and c quarks. These measurements require large numbers of B o , Bs, B − and D * + hadrons. Fortunately, copius production of particles containing b and c quarks will occur at Tevatron and the LHC. The crucial measurements are described here, as well as the design of the two experiments, LHC-b an...
متن کاملSpontaneous Violation of the CP Symmetry in the Higgs Sector of the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Model
The spontaneous violation of the CP symmetry in the next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard Model (NMSSM) is investigated. It is found that the spontaneous violation of the CP symmetry can occur in the Higgs sector of the NMSSM for a wide region of the parameter space of the model, at the 1-loop level where the radiative corrections due to the top quark and scalar-top quark loops are found to g...
