High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2019-05-28 v2

Abstract

Electron-positron annihilation into a pair of top quarks is considered at the energy of the future collider CLIC. Polarization components of the top quark are calculated with the γttˉ\gamma t \bar{t} and ZttˉZ t \bar{t} interactions which follow from the Lagrangian of the effective field theory of the Standard Model. The polarization vector as a function of the scattering angle is calculated and averaged components of polarization are analyzed as functions of anomalous coupling constants. Extrema of these observables (maxima, minima and saddle points) are studied as functions of the e+ee^+ e^- energy.
