چکیده

We calculate the typical size of loop corrections to electroweak observables arising from non-standard Ztt and Wtb vertices. We use an effective Lagrangian formalism based on the electroweak gauge group SU(2)L× U(1)Y → U(1)EM . Limits on the non-standard model top quark couplings from electroweak observables are presented and compared with previously obtained limits. ∗This manuscript has been authored under contract number DE-AC02-76CH00016 with the U.S. Department of Energy.

Effects of a heavy top quark on low energy data using the electroweak chiral Lagrangian.

We study large top quark mass effects on low energy physics in the chiral Lagrangian formulated electroweak theories. We show that these radiative corrections can be easily obtained from a set of Feynman diagrams involving only the scalar Goldstone bosons and the fermions when the contributions of the order g (the weak coupling) are ignored. Using CERN LEP and SLAC Linear Collider (SLC) data we...

Single Top Quarks at the Tevatron

After many years searching for electroweak production of top quarks [1], the Tevatron collider experiments have now moved from obtaining first evidence for single top quark production to an impressive array of measurements that test the standard model in several directions. This paper describes measurements of the single top quark cross sections, limits set on the CKM matrix element Vtb , searc...

Unitarity Constraints on Anomalous Top Quark Couplings to Weak Gauge

If there is new physics associated with the top quark, it could show up as anomalous couplings of the top quark to weak gauge bosons, such as Ztt and Wtb vector and axial-vector couplings. We use the processes tt → ZZ, tt → W+W−, and tt → ZH to obtain the unitarity constraints on these anomalous couplings, and combine these constraints with those from precision electroweak data. The unitarity c...

The agreement of electroweak measurements with theory places limits on the masses of the top quark and the W boson. It is shown how these limits arise and what constraints various measurements (particularly a top quark mass determination) would provide on the theory. The degree to which present and future measurements can constrain the Higgs boson mass is examined.

Renormalization group evolution of R-parity-violating Yukawa couplings.

We study the evolution of R-parity-violating (RPV) couplings in the minimum supersymmetric standard model, between the electroweak and grand unification scales, assuming a family hierarchy for these coupling strengths. Particular attention is given to solutions where both the R-conserving and R-violating top quark Yukawa couplings simultaneously approach infrared fixed points; these we analyse ...
