T-odd generalized and quasi transverse momentum dependent parton distribution in a scalar spectator model

Generalized transverse momentum dependent parton distributions (GTMDs), as mother funtions of transverse momentum dependent parton distributions (TMDs) and generalized parton distributions (GPDs), encode the most general parton structure of hadrons. We calculate four twist-two time reversal odd GTMDs of pion in a scalar spectator model. We study the dependence of GTMDs on the longitudinal momentum fraction $x$ carried by the active quark and the transverse momentum $|\vec k_T|$ for different values of skewness $\xi$ defined as the longitudinal momentum transferred to the proton as well as the total momentum $|\vec\Delta_T|$ transferred to the proton. In addition, the quasi-TMDs and quasi-GPDs of pion have also been investigated in this paper

Searches for the Anomalous FCNC Top-Higgs Couplings with Polarized Electron Beam at the LHeC

In this paper, we study the single top and Higgs associated production $\rm e^- p\rightarrow \nu_e \bar{t} \rightarrow \nu_e h \bar{q}(h\rightarrow b\bar{b})$ in the top-Higgs FCNC couplings at the LHeC with the electron beam energy of $E_{e}$ = 60 GeV and $E_{e}$ = 120 GeV, combination of a 7 TeV and 50 TeV proton beam. With the possibility of e-beam polarization ($p_{e}$ = 0, $\pm0.6$), we distinct the Cut-based method and the Multivariate Analysis (MVA) based method, and compare with the current experimental and theoretical limits. It is shown that the branching ratio Br $\rm(t\to uh)$ can be probed to 0.113 (0.093) $\%$, 0.071 (0.057) $\%$, 0.030 (0.022) $\%$ and 0.024 (0.019) $\%$ with the Cut-based (MVA-based) analysis at ($E_{p}$, $E_{e}$) = (7 TeV, 60 GeV), ($E_{p}$, $E_{e}$) = (7 TeV, 120 GeV), ($E_{p}$, $E_{e}$) = (50 TeV, 60 GeV) and ($E_{p}$, $E_{e}$) = (50 TeV, 120 GeV) beam energy and 1$\sigma$ level. With the possibility of e-beam polarization, the expected limits can be probed down to 0.090 (0.073) $\%$, 0.056 (0.045) $\%$, 0.024 (0.018) $\%$ and 0.019 (0.015) $\%$, respectively.Comment: 13pages, 5 figures.

Exploring the Anomalous Top-Higgs FCNC Couplings at the electron proton colliders

We perform an updated analysis on the searches for the anomalous FCNC Yukawa interactions between the top quark, the Higgs boson, and either an up or charm quark ($\rm tqh,\ q=u,\ c$). We probe the observability of the FCNC top-Higgs couplings through the processes $\rm e^- p\rightarrow \nu_e \bar{t} \rightarrow \nu_e h \bar{q}$ (signal.I) and $\rm \ e^- p \to \nu_e h b$ (singal.II) at the proposed electron proton (ep) colliders, where the Higgs boson decays to a $\rm b\bar{b}$ pair. We find that at the high luminosity (1 $\rm ab^{-1}$) ep colliders where the electrons have a polarisation of $\rm 80\%$ and electron energy is typical 60 GeV, the 2$\sigma$ upper limit on $\rm Br(t\to uh)$ are $0.15\times 10^{-2}$($2.9\times 10^{-4}$) at the 7TeV@LHeC(50TeV@FCC-eh) for signal.I and $0.15\times 10^{-2}$($2.2\times 10^{-4}$) for signal.II. We also give an estimate on how the sensitivity (take signal.I as examples) would change when we reduce the electron beam energy from 60 GeV to 50 GeV or even 40 GeV due to the cost reason. The conclusion is that the discovery potential reduce $8.7\%$($29.4\%$) if the electron beam change from 60GeV to 50(40) GeV at the 7TeV LHeC, and $16.8\%$($19.8\%$) at the 50 TeV FCC-eh.Comment: 8 figures. 4 tables. 26 page
