Abstract

While it is known that third family hypercharge models can explain the neutral current BB-anomalies, it was hitherto unclear whether the ZZZ-Z^\prime mixing predicted by such models could simultaneously fit electroweak precision observables. Here, we perform global fits of several third family hypercharge models to a combination of electroweak data and those data pertinent to the neutral current BB-anomalies. While the Standard Model is in tension with this combined data set with a pp-value of .00068.00068, simple versions of the models (fitting two additional parameters each) provide much improved fits. The original Third Family Hypercharge Model, for example, has a pp-value of .065.065, i.e. Δχ2=6.5σ\sqrt{\Delta \chi^2}=6.5\sigma.
