Weak dipole moments of heavy fermions with flavor violation induced by $Z^\prime$ gauge bosons

A calculation of weak dipole moments of charged fermions of the Standard Model (SM) at the one-loop level, in the context of a general effective extended neutral current model with flavor changing $Z^\prime f_i \bar{f}_j$ vertices, is presented. We give numerical predictions for the anomalous weak magnetic dipole moment (AWMDM) $a^w_{fi}$, and the weak electric dipole moment (WEDM) $d^w_{f_i}$, for the $τ$ lepton and $t$ quark. For several $Z^\prime$ gauge bosons considered, we find that, for the $τ$ lepton, the best prediction for the real part of $a^w_τ$ is of the order of $10^{-9}$, while the imaginary part is four orders of magnitude below. The highest value for the WEDM, $d^w_τ$, corresponds to $10^{-26}$ $e$-cm, for its real part, and the imaginary part is three orders of magnitude below. On the other hand, we found for the top quark, that the best prediction for the real part of $a^w_t$ is of the order of $10^{-7}$ and its imaginary part is of the order of $10^{-11}$. We also found that $d^w_t$ is of the order of $10^{-26}$ $e$-cm for its real part, and its imaginary part can be as high as $10^{-31}$ $e$-cm.

Off-shell chromomagnetic dipole moments in the SM at and beyond the $Z$ gauge boson mass scale

The off-shell anomalous chromomagnetic dipole moment of the standard model quarks ($u$, $d$, $s$, $c$ and $b$), at the $Z$ gauge boson mass scale, is computed by using the $\overline{\textrm{MS}}$ scheme. The numerical results disagree with all the previous predictions reported in the literature and show a discrepancy of up to two orders of magnitude in certain situations.

Revisiting the top quark chromomagnetic dipole moment in the SM

We revisit the anomalous chromomagnetic dipole moment in the Standard Model and show that its triple gluon vertex contribution, with the on-shell gluon ($q^2=0$), generates an infrared divergent pole. Consequently, the chromomagnetic dipole should not be perturbatively evaluated at $q^2=0$. Focusing on this top quark anomaly, denoted as $\hatμ_t(q^2)$, we compute it with the off-shell gluon with a large momentum transfer, just as the $α_s(m_Z^2)$ convention scale, for both spacelike $q^2=-m_Z^2$ and timelike $q^2=m_Z^2$ cases. We found that $\hatμ_t(-m_Z^2)$ $=$ $-0.0224$ $-0.000925i$ and $\hatμ_t(m_Z^2)$ $=$ $-0.0133$ $-0.0267i$. Our $\mathrm{Re}\thinspace\hatμ_t(-m_Z^2)$ matches well with the current experimental value $\hatμ_t^\mathrm{Exp}=-0.024_{-0.009}^{+0.013}(\mathrm{stat})_{-0.011}^{+0.016}(\mathrm{syst})$, and the $\mathrm{Im}\thinspace\hatμ_t(-m_Z^2)$ part is induced by flavour changing charged currents.

Flavor violation in chromo- and electromagnetic dipole moments induced by $Z^\prime$ gauge bosons and a brief revisit of the Standard Model

The electromagnetic dipole moments of the tau lepton and the chromoelectromagnetic dipole moments of the top quark are estimated via flavor-changing neutral currents, mediated by a new neutral massive gauge boson. We predict them in the context of models beyond the Standard Model with extended current sectors, in which simple analytic expressions for the dipole moments are presented. For the different $Z^\prime$ gauge boson considered, the best prediction for the magnetic dipole moment of the tau lepton, $|a_τ|$, is of the order of $10^{-8}$, while the highest value for the electric one, $|d_τ|$, corresponds to $10^{-24}$ $e\,$cm; our main result for the chromomagnetic dipole moment of the top quark, $|\hatμ_t|$, is $10^{-6}$, and the value for the chromoelectric one, $|d_t|$, can be as high as $10^{-22}$ $e\,$cm. We compare our results, revisiting the corresponding Standard Model predictions, in which the chromomagnetic dipole moment of the top quark is carefully evaluated, finding explicit imaginary contributions.
