On signatures for the Littlest Higgs model in electron-positron colliders


الملخص بالإنكليزية

There is a recent proposal of identifying the Higgs particle of the Standard Model as a pseudo Nambu-Goldstone boson. This new broken symmetry introduces new particles and new interactions. Among these new interactions a central role to get a new physics is played by the new neutral gauge boson. We have studied the new neutral currents in the Littlest Higgs model and compared with other extended models. For high energy $e^+ + e^-$ colliders we present a clear signature for new neutral gauge bosons that can indicate the theoretical origin of these particles. Previous analysis by other authors were done at collider energies equal to the new gauge boson mass $M_{A_H}$. In this paper we show that asymmetries in fermion anti-fermion production can display model differences in the case $M_{A_H} > sqrt{s}$. For $M_{A_H} < sqrt{s}$ we show that the hard photon energy distribution in $e^+ + e^- lra gamma + f + bar f$ can present a model dependence. New bounds for the new neutral gauge boson masses are also presented.
