dc.descriptionI summarize work done with Bamert, Burgess, Nardi and London in which we examine the effects of new physics on R_b. Our work facilitates the identification of such new physics in case the present two-sigma deviation of R_b from its Standard Model value should persist, or alternatively it helps to constrain new physics in case the discrepancy continues to disappear. We consider two general classes of effects: mixing of the b or t quarks with heavy, exotic quarks, and loop corrections to the $Zb\bar b$ vertex. Our aim was to give an analysis which is as exhaustive and as model-independent as possible.
