Constraints From $b\to s\gamma$ on the Left-Right Symmetric Model

Abstract

Recent results from the CLEO Collaboration on both inclusive and exclusive radiative $B$ decays are used to constrain the parameter space of two versions of the Left-Right Symmetric Model. In the first scenario, when the left- and right-handed Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa mixing matrices are equal, $V_L=V_R$, the radiative $B$ decay data is shown to lead to strong bounds on the $W_L-W_R$ mixing angle that are quite insensitive to either the top quark or $W_R$ mass. The second scenario examined is that of Gronau and Wakaizumi wherein $b$-quark decays proceed only via right-handed currents and $V_L$ and $V_R$ are quite distinct. For this model, the combined constraints from Tevatron $W_R$ searches, the $B$ lifetime, and radiative $B$ decays lead to a very highly restricted allowed range for the $W_L-W_R$ mixing angle.
