摘要:

我们介绍了一个玩具模型实施建议,使用保管对称性,以保护ZBB耦合大更正。这个“二重态扩展的标准模型“在标准模型的粒子内容中加入了一个弱的费米子二重态(包括顶夸克的重伙伴),以实现O(4)x U(1)_X = SU(2)_L x SU(2)_R x P_{LR} x U(1)_X对称性,从而保护Zbb耦合。对于新的二重态,狄拉克质量M使这种对称性软破缺为规范的SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y电弱对称性;调整M的值使我们能够探索O(4)对称(M到0)和标准模型(M到无穷大)极限之间的可能性范围。在这个简单的模型中,我们发现Zbb耦合的实验极限有利于较小的M,而对T的潜在相当大的负贡献的存在强烈有利于大M。对所有精确的电弱数据的拟合表明,顶夸克的重伙伴必须比3.4 TeV重,这使得在LHC中很难搜索。这一结果表明,电弱数据强烈限制了顶夸克质量产生部门的保管对称性相对于标准模型可以增强的量。使用有效场论计算,我们说明了如何在这个模型中的α T,α S和Zbb耦合的主要贡献产生一个有效的运营商耦合右手顶夸克的Z玻色子,以及如何对这些可观的影响是相关的。我们对比这个玩具模型与额外的维模型,其中扩展的保管对称性被调用来控制额外的贡献α T和Zbb耦合的大小,而留下的标准模型的贡献基本不变。

英文摘要:

We introduce a toy model implementing the proposal of using a custodial symmetry to protect the Zbb coupling from large corrections. This "doublet-extended standard model" adds a weak doublet of fermions (including a heavy partner of the top quark) to the particle content of the standard model in order to implement an O(4) x U(1)_X = SU(2)_L x SU(2)_R x P_{LR} x U(1)_X symmetry that protects the Zbb coupling. This symmetry is softly broken to the gauged SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y electroweak symmetry by a Dirac mass M for the new doublet; adjusting the value of M allows us to explore the range of possibilities between the O(4)-symmetric (M to 0) and standard-model-like (M to infinity) limits. In this simple model, we find that the experimental limits on the Zbb coupling favor smaller M while the presence of a potentially sizable negative contribution to T strongly favors large M. A fit to all precision electroweak data shows that the heavy partner of the top quark must be heavier than about 3.4 TeV, making it difficult to search for at LHC. This result demonstrates that electroweak data strongly limits the amount by which the custodial symmetry of the top-quark mass generating sector can be enhanced relative to the standard model. Using an effective field theory calculation, we illustrate how the leading contributions to alpha T, alpha S and the Zbb coupling in this model arise from an effective operator coupling right-handed top-quarks to the Z-boson, and how the effects on these observables are correlated. We contrast this toy model with extra-dimensional models in which the extended custodial symmetry is invoked to control the size of additional contributions to alpha T and the Zbb coupling, while leaving the standard model contributions essentially unchanged.
