Early LHC phenomenology of Yukawa-bound heavyQQ¯mesons

Abstract: Current limits from the LHC on fourth generation quarks are already at the unitarity bound of 500 GeV or so. If they exist, the strong Yukawa couplings are turning nonperturbative, and may form bound states. We study the domain of m b 0 and m t 0 in the range of 500 to 700 GeV, where we expect binding energies are mainly of Yukawa origin, with QCD subdominant. To be consistent with electroweak precision tests, the t 0 and b 0 quarks have to be nearly degenerate, exhibiting a new ''isospin.'' Comparing relativi… Show more

“…As one can see, putting the Higgs mass m h = 125 GeV the 4G mass difference △m = m t ′ − m b ′ becomes less then the mass of W boson, therefore the semi-leptonic decay channel should be suppressed as was noted in [7].…”

“…But since octet state itself has larger energy compared to singlet one it should decay over time. Besides such a heavy 4G quarks itself should experience weak decay to lighter quarks as well as other decay channels [7]. Since in this paper we are mainly interested on octet channel contribution to production of colour singlet quarkonium below we will calculate its decay width and briefly discuss other decay channels afterwards.…”

“…Unfortunately, their nonperturbative boundstate nature makes the discussion rather speculative, as we have not solved the boundstate problem. We note that the η 1 , η 8 (as well as ρ and σ) states seem, at best, loosely bound [64] at 2m Q ; hence, it would not have been easy to account for a 750 GeV γγ bump anyway. However, if low-lying boundstates exist around TeV, rather than 4-5 TeV, the vector boson multiplicity of the fireball may be reduced, and production may be aided by mixing of ω 8 with the gluon.…”

“…If the V L or NG boson G is a massless QQ boundstate (Fermi-Yang redux! ), the leading excitations [64] should be π 8 , ω 1 and ω 8 [65], where G would be π 1 in this notation. Although the hint for a 750 GeV γγ bump in 2015 data at 13 TeV has disappeared with more data [23], it motivates one to consider how low in mass these first excitations could be.…”

“…As a mater of fact there are many models with various motivations including models of GUT remnants [32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39], composite models [40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48] or a radiative neutrino mass models [49][50][51] which may give such contributions. Among these the scalars are interesting as they may play crucial role in the spontaneous symmetry breaking through additional terms with large portal couplings in the scalar potential.…”
