    O(100GeV)\mathscr{O}(100 GeV) Deci-weak Wβ€²/Zβ€²W^\prime/Z^\prime at Tevatron and LHC

    Full text link
    Recently Tevatron released their measurements on invariant mass spectrum of electron/positron, as well as the di-jet arising from WW+WZ production with one W leptonically decay. Though the statistics is not significant, there are two bumps around 240 GeV and 120-160 GeV respectively. We proposed that the two bumps correspond to the extra light gauge bosons Zβ€²Z^\prime and Wβ€²W^\prime, which couple with quarks with the deci-weak strength. In this brief report, we also simulated di-jet invariant mass distribution at the current running LHC.Comment: 8 pages, 3 EPS figures, ref added, figures update

    New Color-Octet Vector Boson Revisit

    Motivated by CDF recent measurements on di-jet invariant mass spectrum where di-jet is associated production with charged leptons (e/ΞΌe/\mu) and missing energy, we re-examine the previous proposed massive color-octet axial-vector-like boson ZcZ_c. Our simulation showed that the di-jet bump around 120-160 GeV can be induced by ZcZ_c with effective coupling gZcqqΛ‰=0.2gsg_{Z_c q \bar q} =0.2 g_s (q represents the quark other than top and gsg_s is the strong coupling constant). Moreover our numerical investigation indicated that the top quark forward-backward asymmetry AFBtA_{FB}^t can be reproduced without distorting shape of differential cross section dΟƒ/dMttΛ‰d\sigma/d M_{t\bar t}, provided that the ZcZ_c and top quark coupling is appropriately chosen (gZcttˉ≃4.5gZcqqΛ‰g_{Z_c t \bar t} \simeq 4.5 g_{Z_c q \bar q}). Our results also showed that the theoretical AFBtA_{FB}^t as functions of Ξ”y\Delta y and MttΛ‰M_{t\bar t} can be consistent with data within 1Οƒ1\sigma and 1.8Οƒ1.8\sigma respectively.Comment: 8 pages, 3 EPS figure
