Solutions to the R_b, R_c and alpha_s puzzles by Vector Fermions

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2009-09-01 v1

Abstract

We propose two minimal extensions of Standard Model, both of which can easily accommodate the recent puzzling observations about the excess in RbR_b, the deficit in RcR_c and the discrepancy in the low energy and high energy determinations of αs\alpha_{s}. Each model requires three additional heavy vectorial fermions in order to resolve the puzzles. The current phenomenological constraints and the new potential phenomena are also discussed.
