Rare decay in a CP spontaneously broken two Higgs doublet model
The Higgs boson mass spectrum and couplings of neutral Higgs bosons to
fermions are worked out i n a CP spontaneously broken two Higgs doublet model
in the large tan case.
The differential branching ratio, forward-backward asymmetry, CP asymmetry
and lepton polarization for are computed. It is shown that
effects of neutral Higgs bosons are quite significant when is
large. Especially, the CP violating normal polarization can be as large
as several percents.Comment: 27 pages, text updated, new numerical results include
Empirical metallicity-dependent calibrations of effective temperature against colours for dwarfs and giants based on interferometric data
We present empirical metallicity-dependent calibrations of effective
temperature against colours for dwarfs of luminosity classes IV and V and for
giants of luminosity classes II and III, based on a collection from the
literature of about two hundred nearby stars with direct effective temperature
measurements of better than 2.5 per cent. The calibrations are valid for an
effective temperature range 3,100 - 10,000 K for dwarfs of spectral types M5 to
A0 and 3,100 - 5,700 K for giants of spectral types K5 to G5. A total of
twenty-one colours for dwarfs and eighteen colours for giants of bands of four
photometric systems, i.e. the Johnson (), the Cousins
(), the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS, ) and the Two
Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS, ), have been calibrated. Restricted
by the metallicity range of the current sample, the calibrations are mainly
applicable for disk stars ([Fe/H]). The normalized percentage
residuals of the calibrations are typically 2.0 and 1.5 per cent for dwarfs and
giants, respectively. Some systematic discrepancies at various levels are found
between the current scales and those available in the literature (e.g. those
based on the infrared flux method IRFM or spectroscopy). Based on the current
calibrations, we have re-determined the colours of the Sun. We have also
investigated the systematic errors in effective temperatures yielded by the
current on-going large scale low- to intermediate-resolution stellar
spectroscopic surveys. We show that the calibration of colour ()
presented in the current work provides an invaluable tool for the estimation of
stellar effective temperature for those on-going or upcoming surveys.Comment: 28 pages, 19 figures, 8 tables, accepted for publication in MNRA
