$e^+ e^- to mu^+ mu^-$ scattering in the Noncommutative standard model

We study muon pair production $ e^+ e^- to mu^+ mu^-$ in the noncommutative(NC) extension of the standard model using the Seiberg-Witten maps of this to the second order of the noncommutative parameter $Theta_{mu u}$. Using $mathcal{O}(Theta^2)$ Feynman rules, we find the $mathcal{O}(Theta^4)$ cross section(with all other lower order contributions simply cancelled) for the pair production. The momentum dependent $mathcal{O}(Theta^2)$ NC interaction significantly modifies the cross section and angular distributions which are different from the commuting standard model. We study the collider signatures of the space-time noncommutativity at the International Linear Collider(ILC) and find that the process $ e^+ e^- to mu^+ mu^-$ can probe the NC scale $Lambda$ in the range $0.8 - 1.0$ TeV for typical ILC energy ranges.
