There are theoretical and phenomenological motivations that there may exist additional heavy Z' bosons with family non-universal couplings. Flavor mixing in the quark and lepton sectors will then lead to flavor changing couplings of the…
We study possible non-standard $tuZ$ and $tcZ$ couplings, which induce flavor-changing neutral-current decays of the top quark, in the effective-Lagrangian framework. The corresponding interaction Lagrangian comes from several $SU(3) \times…
We model-independently study the impacts of anomalous $tqZ$ couplings ($q=u,c$), which lead to the $t\to q Z$ decays, on low energy flavor physics. It is found that the $tuZ$-coupling effect can significantly affect the rare $K$ and $B$…
We compute the branching ratios for the rare top quark decays t to c gamma and t to c Z mediated by effective flavor changing neutral couplings at the next-to-leading order in QCD including the effects due to operator mixing. After…
Possible non-standard tuZ and tcZ interactions, which induce flavor-changing neutral-current decays of the top quark, are studied in the effective-Lagrangian framework. The corresponding Lagrangian consists of four kinds of non-standard…
We survey the flavor-changing neutral couplings (FCNC) of the top quark predicted by some extensions of the Standard Model: THDM, SUSY, L-R symmetric, TC2, 331, and models with extra quarks. Since the expected sensitivity of the LHC and ILC…
We study flavor changing effects on the \ppbchT process at the Large Hadron Collider(LHC), which are inspired by the left-handed up-type squark mixings in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model(MSSM). We find that the SUSY QCD radiative…
In the scenario with Z mediated flavor changing neutral current occurring at the tree level due to the addition of a vector-like isosinglet down-type quark d' to the SM particle spectrum, we perform a chi square fit using the flavor physics…
We study the one-loop contribution of the effective flavor changing neutral couplings (FCNC) $tcZ$ to the charm quark electric dipole moment. Using the known limits on the top and charm quarks electric dipole moments, we place limits on…
The possibility of exploring the flavor changing neutral current $tcZ/tc\gamma$ couplings in the production vertex for the reaction $\epem\to t\bar c + \bar tc$ is examined. Using a model independent parameterization for the effective…
We study low energy experimental constraints on an anomalous top-quark coupling associated with the flavor-changing neutral current vertex $Z \bar t c$. In view of these constraints, we discuss the experimental observability of the induced…
In some models with an extra U(1) gauge boson Z', the gauge couplings of the Z' to different generations of fermions may not be universal. Flavor mixing in general can be induced at the tree level in the up-type and/or down-type quark…
The VuQ model involves the addition of a vector isosinglet up-type quark to the standard model. In this model the full CKM quark mixing matrix is 4 X 3. Using present flavor-physics data, we perform a fit to this full CKM matrix, looking…
We present a search for flavor changing neutral currents in decays of top quarks. The analysis is based on a search for ttbar -> l'null + jets (l, l' = e, mu) final states using 4.1 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity of ppbar collisions at…
Models with a non-universal Z' exhibit in general flavor changing neutral currents (FCNC) at tree-level. When the Z' couplings favor the third generation, flavor changing transitions of the form Z'tc and Z'tu could be large enough to be…
In this work we study the effects of anomalous $tcZ$ couplings. Such couplings would potentially affect several neutral current decays of $K$ and $B$ mesons via $Z$-penguin diagrams. Using constraints from relevant observables in $K$ and…
Extension of the SM with one extra Higgs doublet may give rise to flavor-changing-scalar coupling of a neutral Higgs to a pair of top-charm quarks. This coupling gives rise to a large tree-level effective W^+W^-;ZZ - Higgs - t bar-c…
In this work we perform a complete one-loop calculation of the flavor-changing top quark decays $t\to cg$ and $t\to cZ$ in the universal extra dimensional models. We find that the branching ratios of these decays in the minimal scenario…
The flavor-changing gravitational process d --> s + graviton, is evaluated at the one-loop level in the standard electroweak theory with on-shell renormalization. The results we present in the 't Hooft-Feynman gauge are valid for on- and…
Due to the very large mass of the top-quark, probing the flavor changing top-charm-scalar vertex is clearly very important. Fortunately the largeness of $m_t$ endows a unique signature to the resulting reaction i.e., $e^+e^-\to t\bar c…
