3-3-1 exotic quark search at CERN LEPII and LHC

Abstract: The 3-3-1 electroweak model is the simplest chiral extension of the standard model which predicts single and double charged bileptons and exotic quarks carrying -4/3 and 5/3 units of the positron charge. In this paper we study the possibilities of the production and decay of one of these exotic quarks at CERN LEPII-LHC collider. For typical vector bilepton, exotic quark masses and mixing angles we obtained between 20 and 750 events per year. Angular distributions are also presented.

“…A similar logic applies to the heavy up-quark U . These quarks have masses proportional to the scale of symmetry breaking of the 3-3-1 symmetry which should lie at several TeV to be consistent with the non-observation of such exotic quarks [53,54]. The scale of symmetry breaking of the 3-3-1 symmetry will be kept sufficiently high to be consistent with this result.…”

“…The muonium fine structure only implies m U =g > 215 GeV assuming only the vector bilepton contributions [50]. Concerning the exotic quark masses, there is no lower limit for their masses but if they are in the range of 200-600 GeV they may be discovered at the LHC [51]. A search for free stable color triplets quarks has been carried out in a p p collider at an energy of 1.8 GeV, excluding these particles in the range 50 -139 GeV, 50 -116 GeV, and 50 -140 GeV for the electric charges of 1, 2=3, and 4=3, respectively [52].…”

“…The fine structure of muonium only implies M U =g > 215 GeV [38] but also ignores the contributions of the doubly charged scalars. Concerning the exotic quark masses there is no lower limit for them but if they are in the range of 200 -600 GeV they may be discovered at the LHC [39]. Similarly, most of the searches for extra neutral gauge bosons are based on models that do not have the same neutral current couplings as those of the 3-3-1 models [2].…”
