Perturbative unitarity constraints on general models and collider implications

Abstract: We study perturbative unitarity constraints on general W models by considering the high energy behavior of fermion scattering into gauge bosons. In most cases we survey, a Z boson with a comparable mass must be present for the theory to be consistent, with fixed couplings to the standard model gauge bosons and fermions. Applying these results to a class of W models which explains the top quark forward-backward asymmetry observed at the Tevatron, we find that a Z must exist with a mass below 7−8 TeV and sizable… Show more

“…It turns out that the contribution proportional to g V DM still cancels in this case and that the leading contribution at high energies becomes proportional to (g A DM ) 2 √ s m DM /m 2 Z . As a result, perturbative unitarity is violated unless [53][54][55]…”

“…That is, additional Higgs fields are mandatory for generation of masses of the SM fermions charged under chiral U (1) ′ and the U (1) ′ gauge boson (Z ′ ) itself. The requirement for the extra Higgs fields is also true in the W ′ [11,70], axigluon [47], flavor SU(3) uR [25], and any other models if the SM fermions are chiral under new gauge interactions.…”
