CKM-suppressed top quark decays t -> q + W in the SM and beyond
arXiv:0712.3782 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.77.094010
Abstract
Top quark decays are of particular interest as a mean to test the standard model (SM) predictions, both for dominant (t -> b + W) and rare decays (t -> q + W, cV, cVV, c phi^{0}, bWZ). As the latter are highly suppressed, they become an excellent window to probe the predictions of thories beyond the SM. In particular, we evaluate the corrections from new physics to the CKM-suppressed SM top quark decay t -> q + W (q = d, s), both within the an effective model with right-handed currents and the MSSM. We also discuss the perspectives to probe those predictions at the ILC.
