Dimension-six anomalous tqγtq\gamma couplings in γγ\gamma \gamma collision at the LHC

We have investigated the flavor changing top quark physics on the dimension-six anomalous $tq\gamma$ ($q=u,c$) couplings through the process $pp\to p\gamma \gamma p\to p t\bar{q}p$ at the LHC by considering different forward detector acceptances. In this paper, we have taken into account and examine the effects of top quark decay. The sensitivity bounds on the anomalous couplings and, $t\to q\gamma$ branching ratio have been obtained at the $95\%$ confidence level for the effective lagrangian approach. Besides, we have investigated the effect of the anomalous couplings on single top quark spin asymmetry.Comment: 24 pages, 8 figures. This version matches the published version in Nucl.Phys.

Search for the Anomalous Interactions of Up-Type Heavy Quarks in γγ\gamma \gamma Collision at the LHC

We investigate the anomalous interactions of heavy up-type quark t' in a $\gamma \gamma$ collision at the LHC. We have obtained 95% confidence level(CL)limit of $t'q \gamma$ anomalous coupling by taking into account three forward detector acceptances: $0.0015<\xi<0.15$,$0.0015<\xi<0.5$, and $0.1<\xi<0.5$.Comment: 16 pages, 3 figures, 3 table

Probe of unparticles at the LHC in exclusive two lepton and two photon production via photon-photon fusion

The exclusive production pp->pXp is known to be one of the most clean channels at the LHC. We investigate the potential of processes pp -> p l-l+ p and pp-> p gamma gamma p to probe scalar and tensor unparticles by considering three different forward detector acceptances; 0.0015<xi<0.15, 0.0015<xi<0.5 and 0.1<xi<0.5. We obtain 95% confidence level sensitivity limits on the unparticle couplings for various integrated luminosities.Comment: 27 pages, 17 figure

Probe of the Anomalous Quartic Couplings with Beam Polarization at the CLIC

We have investigated the anomalous quartic couplings defined by the dimension-8 operators in semileptonic decay channel of the $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow \nu_{e} W^{-} W^{+} \bar{\nu}_{e}$ process for unpolarized and polarized electron (positron) beam at the Compact Linear Collider. We give the $95\%$ confidence level bounds on anomalous $\frac{f_{S0}}{\Lambda^{4}}$, $\frac{f_{S1}}{\Lambda^{4}}$ and $\frac{f_{T0}}{\Lambda^{4}}$ couplings for various values of the integrated luminosities and center-of-mass energies. The best sensitivities obtained on anomalous $\frac{f_{S0}}{\Lambda^{4}}$, $\frac{f_{S1}}{\Lambda^{4}}$ and $\frac{f_{T0}}{\Lambda^{4}}$ couplings through the process $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow \nu_{e} W^{-} W^{+} \bar{\nu}_{e}$ with beam polarization at $\sqrt{s}=3$ TeV and an integrated luminosity of $L_{int}=2000$ fb$^{-1}$ are $[-4.05;\, 3.67]\times 10^{-12}$ GeV$^{-4}$, $[-3.08; \, 2.12]\times 10^{-12}$ GeV$^{-4}$, $[-1.98; \, 0.64]\times 10^{-13}$ GeV$^{-4}$, which show improvement over the current bounds.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figures and 8 tables, published versio

Anomalous WWγWW\gamma couplings with beam polarization at the Compact Linear Collider

We study the anomalous $WW\gamma$ couplings at the Compact Linear Collider through the processes $e^{+}e^{-}\to W^+W^-$, $e^{-}e^{+} \to e^{-} \gamma^{*} e^{+} \to e^{+} \nu_{e} W^-$ and $e^{-}e^{+}\to e^{-} \gamma^{*} \gamma^{*} e^{+} \to e^{-} W^+ W^- e^{+}$ $(\gamma^{*}$ is the Weizsacker-Williams photon). We give the 95\% confidence level limits for unpolarized and polarized electron (positron) beam on the anomalous couplings for various values of the integrated luminosities and center-of-mass energies. We show that the obtained limits on the anomalous couplings through these processes can highly improve the current experimental limits. In addition, our limits with beam polarization are approximately two times better than the unpolarized case.Comment: Tables and references adde

The impact of excited neutrinos on ννˉ→γγ\nu \bar{\nu}\to \gamma\gamma process

We examine the effect of excited neutrinos on the annihilation of relic neutrinos with ultra high energy cosmic neutrinos for the $\nu \bar{\nu}\to \gamma\gamma$ process. The contribution of the excited neutrinos to the neutrino-photon decoupling temperature are calculated. We see that photon-neutrino decoupling temperature can be significantly reduced below the obtained value of the Standard Model with the impact of excited neutrinos.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figures, published versio
