Top Quark Chromomagnetic Dipole Moment in the Littlest Higgs Model with T-Parity

The littlest Higgs model with T-parity, which is called LHT model, predicts the existence of the new particles, such as heavy top quarks, heavy gauge bosons, and mirror fermions. We calculate the one-loop contributions of these new particles to the top quark ehromomagnetic dipole moment （CMDM） AK. We find that the contribution of the LHT model is one order of magnitude smaller than the standard model prediction value.     

The Lepton Flavor Violating Decays of AHin the Littlest Higgs Model with T-Parity Violation

The T-parity in the littlest Higgs model can be broken by the anomalous Wess-Zumino-Witten term, which leads that the lightest T-odd gauge boson A_H decays into the SM particles. First, we examine some lepton flavor violating decays of A_H, namely A_H→τ^±μ^干, A_H→τ^±e^干, and A_H→μ^±e^干. We find that the branching ratios can reach 10^-7 for A_H→τ^±μ^干, 10^-8 for A_H→τ^±e^干, and 10^-8 for A_H→μ^±e^干. Then, we study the lepton flavor violating plus jets signatures of the heavy charged gauge boson and mirror quarks at the LHC, and find that it is possible to be detected for pp→q_Hq_H→τ^±μ^干+4 jets, and hardly to be detected for pp→q_Hq_H→τ^±e^干(μ^±e^干)+4 jets and pp→ W_HW_H→τ^±μ^干(τ^±e^干, μ^±e^干)+6 jets.

Production of Charged Higgs Bosons from Left-Right Twin Higgs Model at TeV Energy e-γ Colliders

The left-right twin Higgs （LRTH） model predicts the existence of three additional Higgs bosons： one neutral Higgs φo and a pair of charged Higgs bosons φ±. In this paper, we study two pair production processes of these new particles at the next generation eγ colliders, i.e., e-γ → e-φ＋φ- , and e-γ→vRφ-φ0. We find that the production cross section of the process e-γ → e-φ＋φ- are at the level of several tens fb, the production cross section of the process e-γ→vRφ-φ0 can reach 0.35 fb with the reasonable parameter values. As long as the charged Higgs bosons are not too heavy, we conclude that these processes might be used to test for the left-right twin Higgs model in future high-energy linear collider experiments.     

Production of Charged Scalars from the Littlest Higgs Model Associated with Top Quark at LHC

The littlest Higgs （LH） model is the most economical one among various little Higgs models, which predicts the existence of the charged scalars Φ^±. In this paper, we study the production of the charged Higgs boson Φ^- with single top quark via the process gb →tΦ^- at the CERN Large Hadron Collider （LHC）. The numerical results show that the production cross section is sma/ler than 0.2 pb in most of the parameters space, it is very difficult to observe the signatures of the charged scalars via the process pp → gb ＋ X → tΦ^- ＋ X at the LHC experiments. However, it can open a window to distinguish the top-pions in the TC2 model or charged Higgs in the MSSM from Φ^±.

In the context of the littlest Higgs （LH） model, we estimate the production cross section of the process e^-у→ e^-H in the future high-energy linear e^＋e^- collider （ILC） with the center-of-mass （CM） energy √S = 500 GeV. Our numerical results show that the contributions of the LH model Co this process are very small in most of the parameter space allowed by the electroweak precision measurement data, and are very diffcult to be detected in the future ILC experiments.     

Higgs and Bottom Quarks Associated Production at High Energy Colliders in the Littlest Higgs Model with T-Parity

In the littlest Higgs Model with T-parity,we discuss the Higgs production in association with bottom quarks at the LHC and future electron-positron collider.We calculate the cross sections of production channels pp→bb H,bb→H and bg→b H at 14 Te V LHC and the cross sections of production channel e~+e~-→bb H in(un)polarized beams at the lowest order.In order to investigate the observability,we display some typical final state distributions in the Higgs to diphoton channel.     

Single Production of Top Quark via e-γ Collision in Left-Right Twin Higgs Model

In the context of the left-right twin Higgs （LRTH） model, we fist study single production of the standard model （SM） top quark via e-γ collisions. We find that the corrections of the LRTH model to the cross section of the process e-γ→vebt might be observed only for f ≤750 GeV and the heavy top quark mass scale M ≥500 GeV in future high energy linear e^＋e^- collider （LC） experiment with the center-of-mass （CM） energy √s = 500 GeV and a yearly integrated luminosity of ￡ = 100 fb^-1. We also consider single production of the heavy top quark T via e-γ collisions. Our numerical results show that the possible signals of the heavy top quark T might be observed via the decay channel T →Ф^＋b→tbb in future LC experiment with √s = 3 TeV and ￡ = 500 fb^-1.     

The correction of the littlest Higgs model to the Higgs production process e<Superscript>+</Superscript>e<Superscript>-</Superscript>→e<Superscript>+</Superscript>e<Superscript>-</Superscript>H at the ILC

The littlest Higgs model is the most economical one among various little Higgs models. In the context of the littlest Higgs model, we study the process e⁺e^-→e⁺e^-H at the ILC and calculate the correction of the littlest Higgs model to the cross section of this process. The results show that, in the favorable parameter spaces preferred by the electroweak precision data, the value of the relative correction is in the range from a few percent to tens percent. In most cases, the correction is large enough to reach the measurement precision of the ILC. Therefore, the correction of the littlest Higgs model to the process e⁺e^-→e⁺e^-H might be detected at the ILC, which will give an ideal way to test the model.

Single Production of Charged Gauge Boson WH^- from Left-Right Twin Higgs Model in Association with Top Quark at LHC

The twin Higgs mechanism has recently been proposed to solve the little hierarchy problem. In the context of the left-right twin Higgs （LRTH） model, we discuss single production of the new charged gauge boson WH^- , which is predicted by the left-right twin Higgs model, in association with top quark at the CERN Large Hadron Collider （LHC）. It is found that, for a typical nonzero value of mass mixing parameter M = 150 GeV in the LRTH model, the production cross section is in the range of 3 ×10^-2 - 6.07×10^3 fb at the LHC. As long as the WH^- is not too heavy, the possible signatures of the heavy charged gauge boson might be detected at the LHC experiments.     

具有T宇称的最小Higgs模型与LHC上Higgs波色子与弱规范波色子的联合产生

Considering the process pp→VH ＋X（V = W or Z） is a significant channel for searching for a light Higgs boson, we calculate the contributions of the littlest Higgs model with T-parity （called LHT model） to its production cross section. We find that, in most of the parameter space, the value of the relative correction parameter R is very small. However, with reasonable values of the free parameters, its value can be significantly larger.     

Muon g - 2 in the Littlest Higgs Model

In this paper the anomalous magnetic dipole moment of muon in the littlest Higgs (LH) model is studied at one-loop level. We discuss the dependence of the contributions on the global symmetry breaking scale f, mixing angles c and cˊ, and the Higgs triplet vacuum expectation value vˊ in the electroweak precision data preferring ranges. We find that the LH model can give a relatively small, but non-negligible extra weak contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment and can reduce the deviation of Δa_μ from 2.6σ for the SM to 2.5σ for the LH model.     

Littlest Higgs model with T-parity and single top production in ep collisions

Based on calculating the contributions of the littlest Higgs model with T-parity (called LHT model) to the anomalous top coupling tqγ (q=u or c), we consider single top production via the t-channel partonic process eq → et in ep collisions. Our numerical results show that the production cross section in the LHT model can be significantly enhanced relative to that in the standard model (SM).     

Restudy on Dark Matter Time-Evolution in the Littlest Higgs Model with T-Parity

Following previous study, in the littlest Higgs model （LHM）, the heavy photon is supposed to be a possiL dark matter candidate and its relic abundance of the heavy photon is estimated in terms of the Boltzman- Lee-Weinba time-evolution equation. The effect of the T-parity violation is also considered. Our calculations show that when Higmass MH taken to be 300 GeV and do not considering T-parity violation, only two narrow ranges 133 〈 MAH 〈 135 Ge and 167 〈 MAH〈 169 GeV are tolerable with the current astrophysical observation and if 135 〈 MAH 〈 167 GeV there must at least exist another species of heavy particle contributing to the cold dark matter. As long as the T-pari; can be violated, the heavy photon can decay into regular standard model particles and would affect the dark matt abundance in the universe, we discuss the constraint on the T-parity violation parameter based on the present dat Direct detection prospects are also discussed in some detail.     

Lepton-number-violating decays of singly-charged Higgs bosons in the type-（Ⅰ＋Ⅱ ） seesaw model

The lepton-number-violating decays of singly-charged Higgs bosons H^± are investigated in the minimal type-（ Ⅰ＋Ⅱ ） seesaw model with one SU（2）L Higgs triplet △ and one heavy Majorana neutrino N1 at the TeV scale. We find that the branching ratios B（H^＋ → 1α^＋υ^-） （for α = e,μ,τ） depend not only on the mass and mixing parameters of three light neutrinos υi （for i = 1, 2, 3） but also on those of N1. Assuming that the mass of N1 lies in the range of 200 GeV to 1 TeV, we figure out the generous interference bands for the contributions of υi and N1 to B（H^＋→ 1α^＋υ^-）. We illustrate some salient features of such interference effects by considering three typical mass patterns of υi, and show that the relevant Majorana CP-violating phases can affect the magnitudes of B（H^＋→ 1α^＋υ^-）） in this parameter region.     

Littlest Higgs Model and Higgs Boson Associated Production with Top Quark Pair at High Energy Linear e+e- Collider

In the parameter space allowed by the electroweak precision measurement data, we consider the contributions of the new particles predicted by the littlest Higgs model to the Higgs boson associated production with top quark pair in the future high energy linear e⁺e^- collider (ILC). We find that the contributions mainly come from the new gauge bosons Z_H and B_H. For reasonable values of the free parameters, the absolute value of the relative correction parameter δσ/σ^SM can be significanly large, which might be observed in the future ILC experiment with √{S}=800 GeV.     

Top Quark Flavor Changing Decay t→ cH^0 in Little Higgs Model

We study theoretically the quantum effects of the littlest Higgs model （LH） mediated by flavor changing one-loop Feynman diagrams on the rare decay process t→ cH^0. The comparison of the decay width in the LH model with that in the standard model （SM） is made. We find that the decay branch ratio of t→ cH^0 in the LH model is at most of the order-10^-12, which is two order larger than in the SM. The numerical results show that the difference between the branch ratios in the LH model and the SM is generally sensitive to the LH model parameters, such as symmetry breaking scale f, Higgs boson mass mH0, and x=v＇4f/v^2 in our chosen parameter space, but relatively insensitive to the value choice of the cosine of the mixing angle c and the ratio λ1/λ2.     

Muon g-2 discrepancy： new physics or a relatively light Higgs？

After a brief review of the muon g-2 status, we discuss hypothetical errors in the Standard Model prediction that might explain the present discrepancy with the experimental value. None of them seems likely. In particular, a hypothetical increase of the hadroproduction cross section in low-energy e^＋e^- collisions could bridge the muon g-2 discrepancy, but it is shown to be unlikely in view of current experimental error estimates. If, nonetheless, this turns out to be the explanation of the discrepancy, then the 95% CL upper bound on the Higgs boson mass is reduced to about 135 GeV which, in conjunction with the experimental 114.4 GeV 95% CL lower bound, leaves a narrow window for the mass of this fundamental particle.
