    • left-right symmetric model (LRM) [29]: Here, we consider a SU(2)L × SU(2)R ×

    U(1)B−L model. The W ′ couplings to SM quarks are purely right-handed while the

    Z ′ couplings are dominantly right-handed.

    Table I is a summary of the couplings of a W ′ and a Z ′ to SM third generation quarks in

    these models. The couplings to the quarks of first two generations are the same, except that

    one should replace sin φ̃ by cos φ̃ in the top-flavor model.

    A. Bounds on masses and couplings

    The masses and couplings of Z ′ and W ′ bosons are bounded by various low energy

    measurements (mainly via the four-fermion operators induced by exchanges of new heavy

    gauge bosons) such as the precision measurements at the Z-pole at LEP-I [30], the W -

    boson mass [30], the forward-backward asymmetry in bb̄ production at LEP-II [30], νe

    scattering [31], atomic parity violation [32–34], Moller scattering [35], and so forth. The

    bounds are severe when new gauge bosons couple to leptons directly, but they can be relaxed

    for a leptophobic model, as analyzed in Ref. [22].

    Tevatron data place a lower bound about 1.1 TeV on the mass of a W ′ [36] and about

    1.07 TeV for a Z ′ [37], based on the charged lepton plus missing energy (ℓ±E̸T ) and µ+µ−

    final states, respectively, with the assumption that the couplings between the W ′/Z ′ and the

    SM fermions are the same as those in the SM. Searches for the W ′ and Z ′ at the Tevatron in

    dijet events yield lower bounds on mW ′ and mZ′ , assuming SM couplings, of 840 GeV and

    which are shown in Fig. 7. The symbol b and j denote a b-tagged jet and light quark

    or gluon jet, respectively, and l refers to the first two generation charged leptons, i.e., e

    and µ. We define the process with top hadronic decay as hadronic mode, while the one

    with top semileptonic decay as semileptonic mode. The hadronic mode suffers from fewer

    backgrounds in the SM than the semileptonic mode because of the smaller phase space due

    to more particles in the final states. This mode has been studied in Ref. [11] where they

    assume the branching fraction R(φ → tχ̄) equal to one. However, this assumption is over

    optimistic. From Eq. (26) we get the branching fraction R(φ → tχ̄),

    R(φ → tχ̄) =Γφ→tχ̄

    Γφ→tχ̄ + Γφ→d̄s̄=

    1

    (m2φ −m2t −m2χ)λ1/2(m2φ, m2t , m2χ). (30)

    Here we assume that the decay widths Γφ→uχ̄ = Γφ→cχ̄ = 0. In the case of λ12S = a3S =

    0.2, mt = 173.1 GeV, mφ = 500 GeV and mχ = 50 GeV, we find Γφ→tχ̄ = 0.300 GeV,

    Γφ→d̄s̄ = 3.183 GeV, and the branching fraction of φ → tχ̄ is just about 0.1. So, in this

    work, we take into account the effect of both φ decay channels and below we will discuss

    further the hadronic and leptonic modes in detail.

    Before discussing the signal and backgrounds in detail, we first give some comments on

    the parameter mχ. In the SUSY model, without the assumption of gaugino mass unification,

    there is no general mass limit from e+e− colliders for the lightest neutralino [20]. The indirect

    constraints from (g − 2)µ, b → sγ and B → µ+µ− show that the lightest neutralino mass

    can be as low as about 6 GeV [36]. In our case, we choose the default value of mχ = 50 GeV

    and discuss the effect on the discovery significance when varying mχ in the range 5 − 100

In these two examples, the missingenergy is carried by the V and χ particles. More diagramswith, for example, t-channel and s-channel exchanges for thetwo type of processes respectively, are possible.

    SU(3)c. As an example, consider the s-channel resonantcase

    d̄id̄j → S or V → tχ ,

    where dk denotes a down-type quark of generation k.Such processes occur in R-parity-violating SUSY [5]where, similarly to the case discussed in Ref. [6], the in-termediate particle is a (possibly on shell) squark andχ the lightest neutralino (d̄s̄ → ũi → tχ̃01, where ũi areany of the up squarks), or in SU(5) theories where a vec-tor leptoquark V decays into a top quark and a neutrino(d̄d̄ → V → tν̄). The key difference between these twoexamples is the mass of the invisible fermionic state in-ducing different transverse-momentum (pT ) spectrum forthe top quark. In the limit of a very heavy resonance,monotops can be seen as being produced through abaryon number-violating effective interaction (d̄s̄ → tχ̄),after having included the possible t- and u-channel ex-changes of a heavy field [7, 8]. Let us note that thefermionic particle could also be a Rarita-Schwinger field,as in SUSY theories containing a spin-3/2 gravitino field,or a multiparticle state (with a global half-integer spin),as in hylogenesis scenarios for dark matter [9].In the second class of models, the top quark is pro-

    duced in association with a neutral bosonic state, eitherlong-lived or decaying invisibly, from quark-gluon initialstates undergoing a flavor-changing interaction, as dis-cussed, e.g., in Ref. [10]. Missing energy consists eitherin a two-fermion continuous state, as in R-parity conserv-ing SUSY [11], or in a spin-0 (S), spin-1 (V ) or spin-2(G) particle,

    ug → ũiχ̃01 → tχ̃01χ̃01 , ug → tS , tV or tG .

    EFFECTIVE THEORY FOR MONOTOPS

    The top quark kinematic distributions depend bothon the partonic initial state and on the nature of theundetected recoiling object (scalar, massive or massless

    fermion, vector or tensor), as well as on the possiblepresence of an intermediate resonant state. This sug-gests a model-independent analysis where we account forall cases within a single simplified theory, in the samespirit as Ref. [12]. Assuming QCD interactions to beflavor-conserving, as in the SM, the flavor-changing neu-tral interactions are coming from the weak sector. Wedenote by φ, χ and V the possible scalar, fermionic andvectorial missing energy particles, respectively and by ϕand X scalar and vector fields lying in the fundamen-tal representation of SU(3)c which could lead to res-onant monotop production.1 In addition, we obtain asimplified modeling of four-fermion interactions throughpossible s, t, u exchanges of heavy scalar fields ϕ and ϕ̃.The corresponding effective Lagrangian in terms of masseigenstates reads

    quarks, the invisible fermion χ and the new colored statesϕ and X . The latter also couple to down-type quarkswith a strength given by aq{S,V }R and b

    q{S,V }R. Because

    of the symmetry properties of the ϵijk tensor, identicalquark couplings to the scalar field ϕ vanish and so dotheir axial couplings to the vector field X . In the caseof four-fermion interactions, we also need to introduce

    assuming heavy masses for the ϕ and ϕ̃ fields.

    1 For simplicity, we neglect spin-2 gravitons, as their flavor-changing couplings are loop-induced and thus very small [13],as well as any of their excitations, which, even if they have, onthe one hand, typically flavor-violating couplings at tree level, donot lead, on the other hand, to a missing energy signature. Onthe same footing, we do not consider spin-3/2 fields since theircouplings are, at least in SUSY theories, in general suppressedby the SUSY-breaking scale.

    Charge Asymmetry in Hadroproduction of Heavy Quarks

    J. H. Kühn and G. RodrigoInstitut für Theoretische Teilchenphysik, Universität Karlsruhe, D-76128 Karlsruhe, Germany

    (Received 12 February 1998; revised manuscript received 17 April 1998)A sizable difference in the differential production cross section of top and antitop quarks, respectively,

    is predicted for hadronically produced heavy quarks. It is of order as

    and arises from the interferencebetween charge odd and even amplitudes, respectively. For the Fermilab Tevatron it amounts to upto 15% for the differential distribution in suitable chosen kinematical regions. The resulting integratedforward-backward asymmetry of 4% 5% could be measured in the next round of experiments. Atthe CERN Large Hadron Collider the asymmetry can be studied by selecting appropriately chosenkinematical regions. [S0031-9007(98)06481-3]

    Top quark production at hadron colliders has becomeone of the central issues of theoretical [1] and experimen-tal [2] research. The investigation and understanding ofthe production mechanism is crucial for the determina-tion of the top quark couplings, its mass, and the searchfor new physics involving the top system. A lot of efforthas been invested in the prediction of the total cross sec-tion and, more recently, of inclusive transverse momen-tum distributions [1].In this Letter we will point to a different aspect of the

    hadronic production process, which can be studied witha fairly modest sample of quarks. Top quarks producedthrough light quark-antiquark annihilation will exhibita sizable charge asymmetry—an excess of top versusantitop quarks in specific kinematic regions—inducedthrough the interference of the final state with initial-state radiation [Figs. 1(a) and 1(b)] and the interferenceof the box with the lowest-order diagram [Figs. 1(c)and 1(d)]. The asymmetry is thus of order a

    s

    relativeto the dominant production process. In suitable chosenkinematical regions it reaches up to 15%, the integratedforward-backward asymmetry amounts to 4%–5%. Topquarks are tagged through their decay t ! b W1 and canthus be distinguished experimentally from antitop quarksthrough the sign of the lepton in the semileptonic modeand eventually also through the b tag. A sample of 100to 200 tagged top quarks should, in fact, be sufficient fora first indication of the effect.Top production at the Fermilab Tevatron is dominated

    by quark-antiquark annihilation, hence the charge asym-metry will be reflected not only in the partonic rest framebut also in the center of mass system of proton and an-tiproton. The situation is more intricate for proton-protoncollisions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC),where no preferred direction is at hand in the laboratoryframe. Nevertheless, it is also in this case possible topick kinematical configurations which allow the study ofthe charge asymmetry.The charge asymmetry has also been investigated in

    [3] for a top mass of 45 GeV. There, however, only

    the contribution from real gluon emission was consideredrequiring the introduction of a physical cutoff on thegluon energy and rapidity to avoid infrared and collinearsingularities. Experimentally, however, only inclusivetop-antitop production has been studied to date, and theseparation of an additional soft gluon will in general bedifficult. In this Letter, we will therefore include virtualcorrections and consider inclusive distributions only. Wewill see below that the sign of the asymmetry for inclusiveproduction is opposite to the one given for the t¯tg processin [3]. The charge asymmetry of heavy flavor productionin quark-antiquark annihilation to bottom quarks was alsodiscussed in [4–6] where its contribution to the forward-backward asymmetry in proton-antiproton collisions wasshown to be very small. In addition, there is also a slightdifference between the distribution of top and antitopquarks in the reaction gq ! t¯tq. At the Tevatron itscontribution is below 1024. (This effect should not beconfused with the large asymmetry in the top quarks’angular or rapidity distribution in this reaction which is atrivial consequence of the asymmetric partonic initial stateand vanishes after summing over the incoming partonbeams.)

    black curve shows the degree of polarization defined in Eq. (37); the dashed red curve shows 2AFB.

    The green band in (b) represents only the statistical uncertainties.

    tan β has been considered very hard to measure. Figure 12 shows that the Ddecay varies

    rapidly in the region of tan β = 5 ∼ 10. This feature enables us to determine tan β using

    top polarization. However, the degree of polarization cannot be used to determine the value

    of tan β in the large tanβ region as the degree of polarization approaches -1. Including the

    t̄H+ signal and the two SM backgrounds inevitably reduces the degree of polarization, as

    depicted in Fig. 12(b). The green band [cf. Eq. (39)] shows the statistical uncertainties

    derived from all the signal and background events after all the kinematic cuts and event

    reconstructions.

    V. CONCLUSION AND DISCUSSION

    The charged Higgs boson, an undoubted signal of new physics, appears in many new

    physics models. In the type-II two-Higgs-doublet model the chirality structure of the cou-

    pling of charged Higgs boson to the top and bottom quarks is very sensitive to the value

    of tan β. As the polarization of the top quark can be measured experimentally from the

    top quark decay products, one could make use of the top quark polarization to determine

    the value of tan β. In this work we preform a detailed analysis of measuring top quark

    polarization in the charged Higgs boson production channels gb → tH− and gb̄ → t̄H+. We

    calculate the helicity amplitudes of the charged Higgs boson production and decay. Our

    calculation shows that the top quark from the charged Higgs boson decay provides a good
