Abstract

In the context of the littlest Higgs(LH)(LH) model, we study the process e+ettˉ e^{+}e^{-}\to t\bar{t}. We find that the new gauge bosons ZHZ_{H} and BHB_{H} can produce significant correction effects on this process, which can be further enhanced by the suitably polarized beams. In most of the parameter space preferred by the electroweak precision data, the absolute value of the relative correction parameter RBHR_{B_{H}} is larger than 5%. As long as 1TeVMZH1.5TeV1TeV\leq M_{Z_{H}}\leq 1.5TeV and 0.3c0.5,0.3\leq c\leq 0.5, the absolute value of the relative correction parameter RZHR_{Z_{H}} is larger than 5%. With reasonable values of the parameters of the LHLH model, the possible signals of the new gauge bosons BHB_{H} and ZHZ_{H} can be detected via the process e+ettˉ e^{+}e^{-} \to t\bar{t} in the future LCLC experiments with the c.m. energy S=800GeV\sqrt{S}=800GeV. BHB_{H} exchange and ZHZ_{H} exchange can generate significantly corrections to the forward-backward asymmetry AFB(ttˉ)A_{FB}(t\bar{t}) only in small part of the parameter space.
