Probing CP Violating Two Higgs Doublet Model through Interplay between LHC and ILC

We study the neutral Higgs boson production at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) and the future $e^- e^+$ linear collider (ILC) in the two Higgs doublet model with CP violation. The CP-even and CP-odd scalars are mixed in this model, which affects the production processes of neutral Higgs boson. We examine the correlation of the Higgs production at LHC and ILC and provide a strategy to distinguish the model from the CP conserving model and to determine the parameters of the Higgs sector.

A Critical Study of the B -> K πPuzzle

In the light of new experimental results on B -> K pi decays, we critically study the decay processes B -> K pi in a phenomenological way. Using the quark diagram approach and the currently available data, we determine the allowed values of the relevant theoretical parameters, corresponding to the electroweak (EW) penguin, the color-suppressed tree contribution, etc. In order to find the most likely values of the parameters in a statistically reliable way, we use the chi^2 minimization technique. Our result shows that the current data for B to K pi decays strongly indicate (large) enhancements of both the EW penguin and the color-suppressed tree contributions. In particular, the color-suppressed tree effect needs to be enhanced by about an order of magnitude to fit the present data.

Strong phase shifts and color-suppressed tree amplitudes in B -> D K^(*) and B -> D pi, D rho decays

We analyze the decay processes B \to DK, DK^*, Dπ, and Dρin a model-independent way. Using the quark diagram approach, we determine the magnitudes of the relevant amplitudes and the relative strong phase shifts. In order to find the most likely values of the magnitudes and the relative strong phases of the amplitudes in a statistically reliable way, we use the χ^2 minimization technique. We find that the strong phase difference between the color-allowed and the color-suppressed tree amplitude can be large and is non-zero at 1 σlevel with the present data. The color-suppressed tree contributions are found to be sizably enhanced. We also examine the validity of factorization and estimate the breaking effects of flavor SU(3) symmetry in B \to DK, Dπand in B \to DK^*, Dρ.

B -> eta^(\prime) l nu decays and the flavor-singlet form factor

We study semileptonic decays B -> eta^(\prime) l nu, taking into account the flavor-singlet contribution (F^{singlet}_+) to the B -> eta^(\prime) form factors, which arises from the two-gluon emission in a decaying B meson. It has been recently pointed out that, in addition to large weak annihilation effects, the unknown value of F^{singlet}_+ prevents accurate theoretical estimates in the analysis of B -> eta^\prime K decays in QCD factorization. We present a certain method to determine F^{singlet}_+ with a reasonable accuracy, using B -> eta^(\prime) l nu and B -> pi l nu decays. We also investigate the possible effect of F^{singlet}_+ on the estimated branching ratios (BRs) for B -> eta^(\prime) l nu and find that the BR for B -> eta^\prime l nu is particularly sensitive to the effect of F^{singlet}_+.

Heavy Baryonic Decays of Λ_b \to Λη^{(\prime)} and Nonspectator Contribution

We calculate the branching ratios of the hadronic Λ_b decays to ηand η^\prime in the factorization approximation where the form factors are estimated via QCD sum rules and the pole model. Our results indicate that, contrary to B\to Kη^{(\prime)} decays, the branching ratios for Λ_b\toΛηand Λ_b\toΛη^\prime are more or less the same in the hadronic Λ_b transitions. We estimate the branching ratio of Λ_b\toΛη^{(\prime)} to be 10.80 (10.32)\times 10^{-6} in QCD sum rules, and 2.78 (2.96)\times 10^{-6} in the pole model. We also estimate the nonfactorizable gluon fusion contribution to Λ_b\toΛη^\prime decay by dividing this process into strong and weak vertices. Our results point to an enhancement of more than an order of magnitude due to this mechanism.

Polarization Effects in B -> K_1(1270) + J/ΨDecays

The joint angular distribution of the decay B \to J/ΨV, where V is an axial vector or vector resonance, followed by the subsequent decay processes of the J/Ψand V is calculated using the covariant density method. In particular, the case where V is the axial vector meson K_1(1270) which decays into K ρis considered as well as the case that V is the vector meson K^\ast(890) which decays into K π.

Probing large extra dimensions with spin configuration of top quark pair production at the JLC

We explore signatures of large extra dimensions with a polarized electron/positrn beam at the Joint Linear Collider (JLC). We point out that spin informations can be useful to study indirect signals for large extra dimensions due to spin-2 nature of Kaluza-Klein gravitons. The spin configurations of the top quark pair production at $e^+ e^-$ and $γγ$ collisions provide an unique testing ground to search for effects of the large extra dimensions. Especially we show the forward-backward asymmetry is a good probe at $e^+ e^- \to t \bar{t}$ process and we can define a new asymmetry observable effective for $γγ\to t \bar{t}$ process.

Probing Z' gauge boson with the spin configuration of top quark pair production at future $e^- e^+$ linear colliders

We explore the effects of extra neutral gauge boson involved in the supersymmetric E6 model on the spin configuration of the top quark pair produced at the polarized e- e+ collider. Generic mixing terms are considered including kinetic mixing terms as well as mass mixing. In the off-diagonal spin basis of the standard model, we show that the cross sections for the suppressed spin configurations can be enhanced with the effects of the Z' boson through the modification of the spin configuration of produced top quark pair enough to be measured in the Linear Colliders, which provides the way to observe the effects of Z' boson and discriminate the pattern of gauge group decomposition. It is pointed out that the kinetic mixing may dilute the effects of mass mixing terms, and we have to perform the combined analysis.

Spin configuration of top quark pair production with large extra dimensions at photon-photon colliders

Top quark pair production at photon-photon colliders is studied in low scale quantum gravity scenario. From the dependence of the cross sections on the spin configuration of the top quark and anti-quark, we introduce a new observable, top spin asymmetry. It is shown that there exists a special top spin basis where with the polarized parent electron beams the top spin asymmetry vanishes in the standard model but retains substantial values with the large extra dimension effects. We also present lower bounds of the quantum gravity scale $M_S$ from total cross sections with various combinations of the laser, electron beam, and top quark pair polarizations. The measurements of the top spin state $(t_\uparrow\bar{t}_\downarrow)$ with unpolarized initial beams are shown to be most effective, enhancing by about 5% the $M_S$ bounds with respect to totally unpolarized case.

Polarization effects on W boson pair productions with the extra neutral gauge boson at the e^+ e^- Linear Collider

We perform the comprehensive analysis of the polarization effects on the e^+e^- -> W^+W^- process in the presence of the extra neutral gauge boson at the LC energies. Consideration of the polarizations of the produced W bosons and the beam polarizations provides substantial enhancements of the sensitivity to the Z-Z' mixing angles in various models and the asymmetry variables also give the strict constraints on the mixing angles. We find that the χ-model and the left-right model get the strict constraint from σ_{LL}^{unpol} while the ψ-model and the η-model from the beam polarization asymmetry.

Large Extra Dimension Effects on the Spin Configuration of the Top Quark Pair at e^+ e^- Colliders

Large extra dimension effects on the spin configuration of the top quark pair at the $e^+ e^-\to t\bar{t}$ process are studied. It is shown that the TeV scale quantum gravity effects cause significant deviations from the Standard Model predictions for the spin configuration in the off-diagonal basis: they lead to substantial cross sections of the like-spin states of the top quark pair, which vanish in the SM; they weaken the pure dominance of the processes, the Up-Down (Down-Up) spin states for the left-handed (right-handed) beam. In addition it is shown that the angular cut $-0.5<\cosθ<0$ is very effective to determine the sign of the quantum gravity corrections.

Analytic reduction of transition amplitudes in radiative electroweak processes

It is shown that the transition amplitudes of radiative electroweak processes like $e^-e^+ \to ν_e \olν_e \ga$, $\ga e^- \to ν_e \olν_e e^-$, and $ν_e e^- \to ν_e e^- \ga$ can be reduced and factorized into simpler forms in the Standard Model. This method can be used in reducing many calculations of complicated radiative electroweak processes in general.
