相关论文: The fate of the leptophobic Z'
We show that the extra Z boson predicted within the so-called "3-3-1" model has a leptophobic character, and analyse its effects on Z decay widths and on the t\bar t production cross section in p\bar p collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron.…
We review present Z' bounds, discuss future Z' constraints from TEVATRON, HERA and LEP, and give a brief review of the Z' diagnostics at future colliders.
Tevatron diboson measurements are reviewed, and new or recent results reported for Wgamma, Zgamma, and ZZ production in the leptonic decay modes, and for WW/WZ production in the lepton plus jets decay mode. The most stringent limits on…
A brief pedagogical overview of the phenomenology of Z' gauge bosons is presented. Such particles can arise in various electroweak extensions of the Standard Model (SM). We provide a quick survey of a number of Z' models, review the current…
This paper reviews the latest results from the Tevatron on W and Z physics, and their use as probes of QCD.
We examine the scenario where a leptophobic Z' boson accounts for the excess of events in the Wjj channel as observed by CDF. We assume generation independent couplings for the Z' and obtain allowed regions for the four hadronic couplings…
Theoretical and phenomenological arguments are in favor of an elusive new neutral vector boson Z' with a relatively low mass, chiral couplings to ordinary quarks and whose couplings to ordinary leptons are suppressed (leptophobia). We point…
In these proceedings I review recent theoretical predictions describing processes involving vector bosons and jets at the LHC. Such processes possess very distinctive phenomenologies and their theoretical accuracy is very different. I focus…
Studies of the production of W/Z + jets are important for a variety of reasons. W/Z + inclusive jets is a valuable high statistics sample that allows one to probe the validity of predictions from perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (pQCD)…
Observing WZ/ZZ production at the Tevatron in a final state with a lepton, missing transverse energy and jets is extremely difficult because of the low signal rate and the huge background. In an attempt to increase the acceptance we study…
The start of the physics program at the LHC has added great impetus in the development of powerful theoretical tools to meet the many challenges that this collider brings. The production of jets and weak vector bosons is at the center of…
In this short report, we discuss the Jet Physics results and perspectives at HERA, Tevatron and LHC.
n this letter we investigate the various processes that can contribute to a final state consisting of a lepton, missing transverse momentum and two jets at Next to Leading Order (NLO) at the Tevatron. In particular we consider the…
In this talk I summarize the capability of future lepton colliders to indirectly discover a new $Z'$ and to determine its couplings to the fermions of the Standard Model. The physics associated with sitting on the $Z'$-pole is also briefly…
The CDF collaboration's recent observation of an excess of events in the Wjj channel may be attributed to a new Abelian vector boson with suppressed couplings to leptons. While D0 finds no evidence of an excess, the CDF data provide an…
New data on jet production obtained by the CDF and D0 Collaborations at the Tevatron in Run II are analyzed in the framework of z-scaling. Properties of data z-presentation are discussed. Physics interpretation of the scaling function…
This report summarizes four recent papers on the characteristics of the hadronic decays of the Z by the LEP collaborations ALEPH, DELPHI and OPAL.
In the context of explaining the experimental deviations in R_b and R_c from their Standard Model predictions, a new type of U(1) interaction is proposed which couples only to quarks. Special attention will be paid to the supersymmetric…
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…
Both CDF and DO report a forward-backward asymmetry in t-tbar production that is above the standard model prediction. We review new physics models that can give a large forward backward asymmetry in t-tbar production at the Tevatron and the…
