$(g-2{)}_{\mu }$ Versus Flavor Changing Neutral Current Induced by the Light $(B-L{)}_{\mu \tau }$ Boson

Abstract

We propose the local $(B-L{)}_{\mu \tau }$ model, which minimally retains the local $B-L$ extension for the sake of neutrino phenomenologies, and at the same time presents an invisible gauge boson $Z^{\prime }$ with mass $\sim \mathcal{O}(10)$ MeV to account for the discrepancy of the muon anomalous magnetic moment. However such a scenario is challenged by flavor physics. To accommodate the correct pattern of Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix, we have to introduce either a $SU(2{)}_L$ doublet flavon or vector-like quarks plus a singlet flavon. In either case $Z^{\prime }$ induces flavor changing neutral current (FCNC) in the quark sector at tree-level. We find that the former scheme cannot naturally suppress the FCNC from the down-type quark sector and thus requires a large fine-tuning to avoid the stringent $K\to \pi \nu \bar{\nu }$ bound. Whereas the latter scheme, in which FCNC merely arises in the up-type quark sector, is still free of strong constraint. In particular, it opens a new window to test our scenario by searching for flavor-changing top quark decay mode $t\to u/c+$(invisible), and the typical branching ratio $\sim \mathcal{O}(10^{-4})$.
