Ya. Coutinho et al., EXOTIC HEAVY-QUARK CONTRIBUTION IN HADRON-HADRON PRODUCTION OF W- PAIRS(W), Physical review. D. Particles and fields, 54(5), 1996, pp. 3497-3502
In this paper we study the contribution of new possible heavy quarks t
o the process hadron-hadron -->W(+)W(-)X. We consider new exotic quark
s as proposed in three extended electroweak models: the vector singlet
model (VSM), the vector doublet model (VDM), and the fermion-mirror-f
ermion model (FMFM). We discuss the high energy unitarity behavior for
the elementary process and their implications. We present the predict
ions of the exotic quark contribution for the CERN Large Hadron Collid
er (LHC). We present some distributions that can separate the standard
model contribution from the new exotic quark contribution.
