We study the effects of this non-universal gauge boson on the cross section and spin correlation of top quark pair production through the process gg → tt at the LHC. We find that the total cross section and the spin correlation can be reduced by-4.7% and -1.4% respectively in the allowed parameter space.展开更多

We find that the SLH always suppresses the tt spin correlations compared to the SM values. At the LHC, the suppression can be over 10% for mz, 〈 750 GeV. The SLH prediction value is outside the 1σ range of the experimental data from ATLAS, and within 1σ range of the experimental data from CMS. At the ILC, the SLH can sizably suppress the tt spin correlation for mz, approaching the center-of-mass energy √s. For example, the maximal suppression can reach -22.5%, -14.5%, and -9.5% for √s = 500 Ge V, 800 Ge V, and 1000 GeV, respectively. Therefore, the tt spin correlation at the ILC can be a sensitive probe for the SLH.展开更多

Rev. D 79 (2009) 094004], we incorporate the color-screening effect due to light quark pair creation into the heavy quark-antiquark potential, and investigate the effects of screened potential on the spectrum of bottomonimn. We calculate the masses, electromagnetic decays, and E1 transitions of bottomonium states. We find that the fine splittings between χbJ (J = 0, 1, 2) states are in good agreement with experimental data, and the E1 transition rates of γ(2S) → γχbJ(1P) and γ(3S) →γχbJ(2P) (J = 0, 1, 2) all agree with data within experimental errors. In particular, the mass of γ(6S) is lowered down to match that of the γ(11020), which is smaller than the predictions of the linear potential models by more than 100 MeV. Comparison between charmonium and bottomonium in some related problems is also discussed.展开更多
