An approach to the model-independent searching for the Z' gauge boson as a virtual state in scattering processes is developed. It accounts for as a basic requirement the renormalizability of underlying unspecified in other respects model.…
We propose a scheme of searches for the $Z'$ gauge boson as a virtual state in scattering processes at the Tevatron taking into account model-independent relations between the $Z'$ couplings to fermions. We integrate the Drell-Yan process…
Model-independent search for the Abelian $Z'$ gauge boson virtual state based on the new observable in the processes $e^+ e^- \to l^+ l^-$ is analyzed for the LEP data. The observable is introduced by using following from renormalizability…
The many-parametric fit of the LEP2 data on e^+e^-\to e^+e^-, \mu^+\mu^-, \tau^+\tau^- processes is performed to estimate signals of the Abelian Z'-boson beyond the standard model. The model-independent relations between the Z' couplings to…
We point out that at future hadron colliders the ratio of cross sections for $pp\to Z'\to \ell^+\ell^-$ in two rapidity bins is a useful probe of the relative couplings of the $Z'$ to $u$ and $d$ quarks. Combined with the forward-backward…
The discovery of a Z' and the measurement of Z' couplings to fermions are main tasks of future colliders. Here, the possibilities to measure Z' f \bar f couplings at an NLC operating below a Z' resonance are studied. In dependence on the…
Many new physics models predict the existence of extra neutral gauge bosons ($Z'$). Inspired by the recent development on Higgs search, we study the properties of $Z'$ via the Higgs and $Z$ boson associated production. The couplings of $Z'$…
We study the properties of potential new Z' gauge bosons produced through the Drell-Yan mechanism at the LHC. Our analysis is performed using a fully differential next-to-leading order QCD calculation with spin correlations, interference…
New physics models predict the possibility of extra neutral gauge bosons ($Z'$) associated with an extra $U(1)'$ gauge symmetry. We study the couplings of the Higgs boson to the $Z$ boson and $Z'$ boson predicted by the new physics models.…
New gauge bosons with Standard Model-like couplings to leptons are constrained by collider searches to be heavier than approximately ~1 TeV. A Z' boson with suppressed couplings to leptons, however, could be much lighter and possess…
The sensitivity of top quark pair production at the Large Hadron Collider to the presence and nature of an underlying Z' boson is studied, accounting for six-fermion decay with full tree-level Standard Model ttbar interference and all…
The study of lepton pair production is a powerful test of the Standard Model (SM) and can be used to search for phenomena beyond the SM. New heavy neutral bosons $Z'$ decaying to charged lepton pairs $l^+l^-$ ($l=e, \mu$) are predicted by…
We study the discovery potential of the Tevatron for a Z-prime gauge boson. We introduce a parametrization of the Z-prime signal which provides a convenient bridge between collider searches and specific Z-prime models. The cross section for…
Z' bosons that couple preferentially to the third generation fermions can arise in models with extended weak (SU(2)xSU(2)) or hypercharge (U(1)xU(1)) gauge groups. We show that existing limits on quark-lepton compositeness set by the LEP…
All couplings of a new heavy gauge boson to ordinary fermions can be determined in a model-independent way at a large $e^+e^-$ collider for large enough statistics. No such determination is possible at LEP 200, however, because its design…
The model-independent constraints on the Abelian Z' couplings from the LEP data are applied to estimate the Z' production in experiments at the Tevatron and LHC. The Z' total and partial decay widths are analyzed. The results are compared…
We study the collider phenomenology of the leptophobic $Z'$ boson from an extra $U(1)'$ gauge symmetry in models with $N$-Higgs doublet fields. We assume that the $Z'$ boson at tree level has (i) no $Z$-$Z'$ mixing, (ii) no interaction with…
The phenomenology of an additional U(1) neutral gauge boson Z' coupled to the third family of fermions is discussed. One might expect such a particle to contribute to processes where taus, b and t quarks are produced. Precision data from…
Model-independent search for the Abelian Z' gauge boson in the Drell-Yan process at the LHC at s^{1/2}= 7 TeV and 8 TeV is fulfilled. Estimations of the Z' axial-vector coupling a_f^2 to the standard model fermions, the couplings of the…
In the attempt to fully profile a $Z'$ boson accessible at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), we study the sensitivity of di-lepton (for the electron, muon and tauon cases) and di-quark (for the case of the heavy flavours, $t$ and, possibly,…
