Leptophobic U(1)'s and theRbRcanomalies

Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the possibility of explaining both the R b excess and the R c deficit reported by the LEP experiments through Z-Z ′ mixing effects. We have constructed a set of models consistent with a restrictive set of principles: unification of the Standard Model (SM) gauge couplings, vectorlike additional matter, and couplings which are both generation-independent and leptophobic. These models are anomaly-free, perturbative up to the GUT scale, and contain realistic mass spectra. Out of this … Show more

“…This observation is consistent with the region of the parameter space considered here, since for instance, scalar neutrinos heavier than~0 2 and scalar leptons would make it competitive with the others. Table V [19][20][21]. We discuss these plots in terms of their ability to discriminative between the MSSM and Uð1Þ 0 models.…”

“…(77) and (78) also contain mixing terms 5 between the U(1) Y and U(1) X gauge bosons. After transforming to the canonical gauge kinetic terms, this mixing leads to an overall shift in the U(1) X charges as well as the coupled renormalization group equations for two U(1) gauge couplings and the U(1) X charge shift [19]. However, when the extra gauge boson gets a heavy mass for giving the see-saw scale for neutrino masses, the mixing effect is not relevant for the low energy physics while the running of the gauge coupling for a light U(1) gauge boson is not affected by the presence of the mixing term [19].…”

“…Although it is possible to add extra matter to the theory to bring the gauge couplings back into alignment at the high scale (see e.g. [63,64,53]), we defer a discussion of the effects of extra matter (beyond that needed to fill a 27 of E 6 ) to the next section.…”

“…The kinetic terms of U (1) Y can mix with those of U (1) ′ with a strength that is a priori unknown and a free parameter (again, in particular models there are constraints from experiment) [51,52,53,54,55]. Furthermore, the mixing is not RG invariant if…”
