1212.6733 (K. Kolodziej)

Anomalous Wtb coupling at the LHC    [PDF]

K. Kolodziej
Some normalized distributions of the secondary mu- in the top quark pair production at the LHC through one of the dominant hard scattering reactions gg -> b u anti-d anti-b mu- anti-nu_mu are calculated to leading order in the presence of the most general anomalous Wtb coupling with operators up to dimension five. In spite of the fact that non zero tensor form factors of the coupling modify substantially the top quark pair production rate, they hardly affect the distributions in the transverse momentum, rapidity and cosine of the angle between the momenta of mu- and recoiling top quark in the pp centre of mass frame. The effects of the tensor form factors become visible in distributions in cosine of the angle between the momentum of mu- and the reversed momentum of the b-quark, both boosted first to the rest frame of top quark and then to the rest frame of W-boson.
