“…However, since exclusive B branching ratios are small, this method has much poorer statistical precision. In hadron collider experiments, this approach has been successfully used to determine theB 0 , B − , and B s lifetimes from exclusive modes with ψ mesons e.g.B 0 → ψK * 0 , B − → ψK − [36] and B s → ψφ [37].…”

Quantum effects on $t\rightarrow H^{+}\,b$ in the MSSM: a window to “virtual” supersymmetry?

et al. 1998

We analyze the one-loop effects (strong and electroweak) on the unconventional top quark decay mode t → H + b within the MSSM. The results are presented in the on-shell renormalization scheme with a physically well motivated definition of tan β. The study of this process at the quantum level is useful to unravel the potential supersymmetric nature of the charged Higgs emerging from that decay. As compared with the standard mode t → W + b, the corrections to t → H + b are large, slowly decoupling and persist at a sizeable level even for all sparticle masses well above the LEP 200 discovery range. As a matter of fact, the potential size of the SUSY effects, which amount to corrections of several ten percent, could counterbalance the standard QCD corrections and even make them to appear with the "wrong" sign. Therefore, if the charged Higgs decay of the top quark is kinematically allowed -a possibility which is not excluded by the recent measurements of the branching ratio BR(t → W + b) at the Tevatron -it could be an invaluable laboratory to search for "virtual" supersymmetry. While a first significant test of these effects could possibly be performed at the upgraded Tevatron, a more precise verification would most likely be carried out in future experiments at the LHC.

“…Searches for t → H + b, H + → τ ν based on the identification of hadronic tau decays have been carried out by the UA1 (Albajar et al, 1991b), UA2 (Alitti et al, 1992c), and CDF (F. Abe et al, 1994c) collaborations. No evidence for this process was found, and limits were placed as a function of M top , M H + , and the H + → τ ν branching ratio.…”

Evidence for pair production of a new particle consistent with the Standard Model top quark has been reported recently by groups studying proton anti-proton collisions at 1.8 TeV center of mass energy at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. In this paper we review the history of the search for the top quark in electron positron and proton anti-proton collisions. We report on a number of precise electro-weak measurements and the value of the top quark mass which can be extracted from these measurements within the context of the Standard Model. We review the theoretical predictions for top quark production and the dominant backgrounds. We describe the collider and the detectors that were used to measure the pair production process and follow on to describe the data from which the existence of the top quark is evinced. Finally, we present possible measurements that could be made in the future with more data, measurements of quantities that would confirm the nature of this particle, the details of its production in hadron collisions, and its decay properties.Comment: To be published in Reviews of Modern Physics.
