Global Fits of Third Family Hypercharge Models to Neutral Current B-Anomalies and Electroweak Precision Observables

Abstract

While it is known that third family hypercharge models can explain the neutral current $B-$anomalies, it was hitherto unclear whether the $Z-Z^{\prime }$ mixing predicted by such models could simultaneously fit electroweak precision observables. Here, we perform global fits of several third family hypercharge models to a combination of electroweak data and those data pertinent to the neutral current $B-$anomalies. While the Standard Model is in tension with this combined data set with a $p-$value of $.00068$, simple versions of the models (fitting two additional parameters each) provide much improved fits. The original Third Family Hypercharge Model, for example, has a $p-$value of $.065$, i.e. $\sqrt{\Delta {\chi }^2}=6.5\sigma$.
