Abstract

We investigate the potential of eγe\gamma collisions to probe anomalous WtbWtb couplings via the polarized single top quark production process e+γtbˉνeˉe^{+} \gamma \to t \bar{b} \bar{\nu_{e}}. We find 95% confidence level limits on the anomalous coupling parameters F2LF_{2L} and F2RF_{2R} with an integrated luminosity of 500fb1500 fb^{-1} and s=0.5,1\sqrt{s}=0.5, 1 and 1.5 TeV energies. The effects of top quark spin polarization on the anomalous WtbWtb couplings are discussed. It is shown that polarization leads to a considerable improvement in the sensitivity limits.
