New signals for vector-like down-type quark in U
We consider the pair production of vector-like down-type quarks in an [Formula omitted] motivated model, where each of the produced down-type vector-like quark decays into an ordinary Standard Model light quark and a singlet scalar. Both the vector-like quark and the singlet scalar appear naturally...

Zusammenfassung: | We consider the pair production of vector-like down-type quarks in an [Formula omitted] motivated model, where each of the produced down-type vector-like quark decays into an ordinary Standard Model light quark and a singlet scalar. Both the vector-like quark and the singlet scalar appear naturally in the [Formula omitted] model with masses at the TeV scale with a favorable choice of symmetry breaking pattern. We focus on the non-standard decay of the vector-like quark and the new scalar which decays to two photons or two gluons. We analyze the signal for the vector-like quark production in the [Formula omitted] channel and show how the scalar and vector-like quark masses can be determined at the Large Hadron Collider. |
