Abstract

We discuss the effects of lepton number violating interactions namely, R-parity violation and leptoquarks on top quark pair production at the upcoming e+ee^+ e^- linear colliders. Effects of SU(2) singlet, doublet and triplet leptoquark interactions are investigated. R-parity violating minimal supersymmetric standard model also allows certain kinds of lepton number violating interactions which are same as singlet leptoquarks with left-handed interactions. We have calculated the cross-section of e+ettˉe^+ e^- \to t \bar t in presence of the above interactions. With conservative values of lepton number violating coupling strengths we got enhancement of top-pair production cross-section in all of the above cases.
