Existences of vector-like quarks (VLQs) are predicted in many new physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model (SM). We study the possibility of detecting the vector-like bottom quark (VLQ-$B$) being the $SU(2)$ singlet with electric charge $-1/3$ at the Large Hadron Electron Collider (LHeC) in a model-independent framework. The decay properties and single production of VLQ-$B$ at the LHeC are explored. Three types of signatures are investigated. By carrying out a fast simulation for the signals and the corresponding backgrounds, the signal significances are obtained. Our numerical results show that detecting of VLQ-$B$ via the semileptonic channel is better than via the fully hadronic or leptonic channel.

Vector-like quarks (VLQs) that are partners of the heavy top and bottom quarks are predicted in many extensions of the Standard Model (SM). We explore the possibility that these states could explain not only the longstanding anomaly in the forward-ba ckward asymmetry in $b$-quark production at LEP, $A_{rm FB}^b $, but also the more recent $sim 2sigma$ deviation of the cross section for the associated Higgs production with top quark pairs at the LHC, $sigma(ppto tbar t H)$. Introducing three illustrative models for VLQs with different representations under the SM gauge group, we show that the two anomalies can be resolved while satisfying all other theoretical and experimental constraints. In this case, the three different models predict VLQ states in the $1-2$ TeV mass range that can be soon probed at the LHC. In a second step, we discuss the sensitivity on the VLQ masses and couplings that could be obtained by means of a percent level accuracy in the measurement of ratios of partial Higgs decay widths, in particular $Gamma(H ! to! gammagamma)/Gamma(H ! to! ZZ^*)$ and $Gamma(H ! to ! bbar b)/Gamma(H ! to ! WW^*)$. We show that top and bottom VL partners with masses up to $sim 5$ TeV and exotic VLQs with masses in the $10$ TeV range can be probed at the high-luminosity LHC.
The new colored vector-like heavy fermion $T$ is a crucial prediction in little Higgs models, which plays a key role in breaking the electroweak symmetry. The littlest Higgs model is the most economical one among various little Higgs models. In the c ontext of the littlest Higgs model, we study single production of the new heavy vector-like quark via $e^{-}gamma$ collisions and discuss the possibility of detecting this new particle in the TeV energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider(LC). We find that the production cross section can vary in a wide range($10^{-3}-10^{1}fb$) in most parameter spaces. For the favorable parameter spaces, the possible signals of the vector-like top quark $T$ can be detected via $e^{-}gamma$ collisions in future $LC$ experiment with $sqrt{s}=3TeV$ and $pounds=500fb^{-1}$.
Vector-Like Quarks (VLQs) are predicted by several theoretical scenarios of new physics and, having colour quantum numbers, can copiously be produced at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), so long that their mass is in the testable kinematic regime of s uch a machine. While it would be convenient to assume that such objects are narrow and can be treated in the so-called Narrow Width Approximation (NWA), this is not always possible, owing to the fact that couplings and particle content of such new physics scenarios are not generally constrained, so that a large value of the former and/or a large variety of VLQ decay channels into the latter can contribute to generate a large decay width for such extra quarks. We have addressed here the issue of how best to tackle in LHC analysis the presence of large (and model-dependent) interference effects between different VLQ production and decay channels as well as between these and the corresponding irreducible background. We have confined ourselves to the case of single production of VLQs, which is rapidly becoming a channel of choice in experimental searches owing to the ever increasing limits on their mass, in turn depleting the yield of the historically well-established double production channel. Indeed, this poses a further challenge, as the former is model-dependent while the latter is essentially not. Despite these conditions, we show here that an efficient approach is possible, which retains to a large extent a degree of model independence in phenomenological studies of such VLQ dynamics at the LHC.
We investigate Higgs-boson pair production at the LHC when the final state system arises from decays of vector-like quarks coupling to the Higgs boson and the Standard Model quarks. Our phenomenological study includes next-to-leading-order QCD correc tions, which are important to guarantee accurate predictions, and focuses on a detailed analysis of a di-Higgs signal in the four $b$-jet channel. Whereas existing Run II CMS and ATLAS analyses are not specifically designed for probing non-resonant, vector-like-quark induced, di-Higgs production, we show that they nevertheless offer some potential for these modes. We then investigate the possibility of distinguishing between the various di-Higgs production mechanisms by exploiting the kinematic properties of the signal.
The existence of new vector-like quarks is often predicted by models of new physics beyond the Standard Model, and the development of discovery strategies at colliders is the object of an intense effort from the high-energy community. Our analysis ai ms at identifying the constraints on and peculiar signatures of simplified scenarios containing textit{two} vector-like quark doublets mixing with textit{any} of the SM quark generations. This scenario is a necessary ingredient of a broad class of theoretically motivated constructions. We focus on the two charge $2/3$ states $t_{1,2}^prime$ that, due to their peculiar mixing patterns, feature new production and decay modes that are not searched for at the LHC: single production of the heavier state can dominate over the light one, while pair production via electroweak interactions overcomes the QCD one for masses at the TeV scale.
