New vectorlike quarks have been proposed in many scenarios of new physics beyond the Standard Model that address the hierarchy problem, which can be potentially discovered at the Large Hadron Collider~(LHC). Based on a model-independent framework, we propose to search for the vectorlike $B$-quark~(VLQ-$B$) and concentrate on resonant production via $b$-gluon fusion through chromomagnetic interactions. We then explore the possible signals of the VLQ-$B$ through the $B\to tW$ decay mode at the 14 TeV LHC. After a fast simulation of signal and background events, the $2\sigma$ excluded regions and the $5\sigma$ discovery reach in the parameter plane of $\kappa_{B}-m_B$, are, respectively, obtained at the LHC with 300~(3000) fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity in the dilepton final states.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
