Polarized Single Top Quark Production in eγCollision and Anomalous Wtb Couplings
Abstract
Description
We investigate the potential of $eγ$ collisions to probe anomalous $Wtb$ couplings via the polarized single top quark production process $e^{+} γ\to t \bar{b} \bar{ν_{e}}$. We find 95% confidence level limits on the anomalous coupling parameters $F_{2L}$ and $F_{2R}$ with an integrated luminosity of $500 fb^{-1}$ and $\sqrt{s}=0.5, 1$ and 1.5 TeV energies. The effects of top quark spin polarization on the anomalous $Wtb$ couplings are discussed. It is shown that polarization leads to a considerable improvement in the sensitivity limits.
