1212.3080 (Chong-Xing Yue et al.)

Bottom partner B' and Zb production at the LHC    [PDF]

Chong-Xing Yue, Qing-Guo Zeng, Qiu-Yang Shi, Meng-Ying Liao
Some new physics models, such as "beautiful mirrors" scenario, predict the existence of the bottom partner $B'$. Considering the constraints from the data for the $Z\rightarrow b\bar{b}$ branching ratio $R_{b}$ and the $FB$ asymmetry $A_{FB}^{b}$ on the relevant free parameters, we calculate the contributions of $B'$ to the cross section $\sigma(Zb)$ and the $Z$ polarization asymmetry $A_{Z}$ for $Zb$ production at the $LHC$. We find that the bottom partner $B'$ can generate significant corrections to $\sigma(Zb)$ and $A_{Z}$, which might be detected in near future.
