Direct bounds on heavy toplike quarks with standard and exotic decays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Heavy vector-like quarks with electric charge $Q=2/3$ (also called \textit{heavy tops}) appear naturally in many extensions of the Standard Model. Although these typically predict the existence of further particles below the TeV scale, direct searches ...

Search for production of vector-like quark pairs and of four top quarks in the lepton-plus-jets final state in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV with the ATLAS detector [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A search for pair production of vector-like quarks, both up-type (T ) and downtype (B), as well as for four-top-quark production, is presented. The search is based on pp collisions at √ s = 8TeV recorded in 2012 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large ...

Exotic signals of vectorlike quarks [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics, 2016
Vectorlike fermions are an important target for hadron collider searches. We show that the vectorlike quarks may predominantly decay via higher-dimensional operators into a quark plus a couple of other Standard Model fermions.

Heavy Quark Fluorescence [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2010
Heavy hadrons containing heavy quarks (for example, Upsilon-mesons) feature a scale separation between the heavy quark mass (about 4.5 GeV for the b-quark) and the QCD scale (about 0.3 GeV}) that controls effective masses of lighter constituents. Therefore, as in ordinary molecules, the de-excitation of the lighter, faster degrees of freedom leaves the

Novel signatures for vector-like quarks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A bstractWe consider supersymmetric extensions of the standard model with a vector-like doublet (T B) of quarks with charge 2/3 and −1/3, respectively.

Heavy quark solitons [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 1993
We investigate the heavy baryons which arise as solitonic excitations in a ``heavy meson" chiral Lagrangian which includes the light vector particles. It is found that the effect of the light vectors may be substantial. We also present a simple derivation which clearly shows the connection to the Callan-Klebanov approach.

Combination of the Searches for Pair-Produced Vectorlike Partners of the Third-Generation Quarks at sqrt[s]=13  TeV with the ATLAS Detector.

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2018
A combination of the searches for pair-produced vectorlike partners of the top and bottom quarks in various decay channels (T→Zt/Wb/Ht, B→Zb/Wt/Hb) is performed using 36.1  fb^{-1} of pp collision data at sqrt[s]=13  TeV with the ATLAS detector at the ...

Directed flow of charm quarks as a witness of the initial strong magnetic field in ultra-relativistic heavy ion collisions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Ultra-relativistic Heavy-Ion Collision (HIC) generates very strong initial magnetic field ( B → ) inducing a vorticity in the reaction plane. The high B → influences the evolution dynamics that is opposed by the large Faraday current due to electric ...

Hadron–Quark Combustion as a Nonlinear, Dynamical System

open access: yesUniverse, 2018
The hadron–quark combustion front is a system that couples various processes, such as chemical reactions, hydrodynamics, diffusion, and neutrino transport. Previous numerical work has shown that this system is very nonlinear, and can be very sensitive to

Signals with six bottom quarks for charged and neutral Higgs bosons

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
In extensions of two Higgs doublet models with vectorlike quarks, the decays of vectorlike quarks may easily be dominated by cascade decays through charged or neutral Higgs bosons leading to signatures with 6 top or bottom quarks.
