Top-quark Yukawa coupling with a dimension-6 operator

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2024-12-31 v1

Abstract

We extend the standard top-quark Yukawa coupling with a dimension-6 operator in order to accommodate a CP violating complex phase with manifest gauge invariance. This leads to a new ttHHttHH contact interaction, along with many Goldstone boson couplings. We investigate the impact of the new interactions on a muon collider process μμ+νμνˉμttˉH\mu^-\mu^+\to \nu_\mu\bar{\nu}_\mu t\bar{t}H compared with the standard dimension-4 top-Yukawa coupling. The unitarity bounds on the coefficient of the new physics operator is obtained from WLWL+W^-_LW^+_L and HHHH initiated processes.
