Signals for Top Quark Anomalous Chromomagnetic Moments at Colliders

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-09-25 v1

Abstract

The Tevatron and the Next Linear Collider(NLC) will be excellent tools for probing the detailed nature of the top quark. We perform a preliminary examination of the influence of an anomalous chromomagnetic moment for the top, κ\kappa, on the characteristics of ttˉt\bar t production at the Tevatron and on the spectrum of gluon radiation associated with ttˉt\bar t production at the NLC. In particular, we analyze the sensitivity of future data to non-zero values of κ\kappa and estimate the limits that can be placed on this parameter at the Tevatron and at the NLC with center of mass energies of s=\sqrt {s}= 500 and 1000 GeV. Constraints on κ\kappa from low energy processes, such as bsγb\rightarrow s\gamma, are briefly discussed.
