Top quark forward-backward asymmetry from the model
The forward-backward asymmetry in top quark pair production,
measured at the Tevatron, is probably related to the contribution of new
particles. The Tevatron result is more than a deviation from the
standard model prediction and motivates the application of alternative models
introducing new states.
However, as the standard model predictions for the total cross section
and invariant mass distribution for this process are in
good agreement with experiments, any alternative model must reproduce these
predictions. These models can be placed into two categories: One introduces the
s-channel exchange of new vector bosons with chiral couplings to the light
quarks and to the top quark and another relies on the t-channel exchange of
particles with large flavor-violating couplings in the quark sector. In this
work we employ a model which introduces both s- and t-channel nonstandard
contributions for the top quark pair production in proton antiproton
collisions. We use the minimal version of the model (3-3-1 model) that predicts the existence of a new neutral gauge
boson, called . This gauge boson has both flavor-changing couplings
to up and top quarks and chiral coupling to the light quarks and to the top
quark. This very peculiar model coupling can correct the for top quark
pair production for two ranges of mass while leading to cross
section and invariant mass distribution quite similar to the standard model
ones. This result reinforces the role of the 3-3-1 model for any new physics
effect.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, 2 table
Charged bilepton pair production at LHC including exotic quark contribution
AbstractThe production of W+W− pair in hadron colliders was calculated up to loop corrections by some authors in the Electroweak Standard Model (SM) framework. This production was also calculated, at the tree level, in some extensions of the SM such as the vector singlet, the fermion mirror fermion and the vector doublet models by considering the contributions of new neutral gauge bosons and exotic fermions. The obtained results for e+e− and pp collisions pointed out that the new physics contributions are quite important. This motivates us to calculate the production of a more massive charged gauge boson predicted by the SU(3)C×SU(3)L×U(1)X model (3-3-1 model). Thus, the aim of the present paper is to analyze the role played by of the extra gauge boson Z′ and of the exotic quarks, predicted in the minimal version of the 3-3-1 model, by considering the inclusive production of a pair of bileptons (V±) in the reaction p+p→V++V−+X, at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) energies.Our results show that the correct energy behavior of the elementary cross section follows from the balance between the contributions of the extra neutral gauge boson with those from the exotic quarks. The extra neutral gauge boson induces flavor-changing neutral currents (FCNC) at tree level, and we have introduced the ordinary quark mixing matrices for the model when the first family transforms differently to the other two with respect to SU(3)L. We obtain a huge number of heavy bilepton pairs produced for two different values of the center of mass energy of the LHC
Production of Charged Higgs Bosons in a 3-3-1 Model at the CERN LHC
We perform a study of the charged Higgs production from an model with right-handed neutrinos, postulating a
custodial symmetry which reduces the number of free parameters in the scalar
potential. We compute the cross sections for charged scalars for typical and
new production modes. One of the new neutral gauge bosons,
, affects some production cross sections distinguishing the model
from other Standard Model extensions like, for example, the Minimal
Supersymmetric Standard Model and general two Higgs doublets models. The
interplay between the Higgs sector of the model and that gauge
boson enhances substantialy all the production rates of the lightest charged
Higgs boson, , at hadron colliders compared to the MSSM. We found
that a large portion of the parameters space can be probed at the LHC running
at 14 TeV center-of-mass energy in the associated production channel in the low luminosity run stage of the
experiment.Comment: 30 pages, 20 figures, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.
Explaining the Higgs Decays at the LHC with an Extended Electroweak Model
We show that the recent discovery of a new boson at the LHC, which we assume
to be a Higgs boson, and the observed enhancement in its diphoton decays
compared to the SM prediction, can be explained by a new doublet of charged
vector bosons from an extended electroweak gauge sector model with
SU(3)_C\otimesSU(3)_L\otimesU(1)_X symmetry. Our results show a good
agreement between our theoretical expected sensitivity to a 126--125 GeV Higgs
boson and the experimental significance observed in the diphoton channel at the
8 TeV LHC. Effects of an invisible decay channel for the Higgs boson are also
taken into account, in order to anticipate a possible confirmation of deficits
in the branching ratios into , , bottom quarks, and tau leptons.Comment: 16 pages, 5 figure
