B_s-bar B_s Mixing constraints on FCNC and a non-universal Z^prime
read the original abstract
$B_s - \bar B_s$ mixing has been measured recently by D0 and CDF. The range predicted in the standard model is consistent with data. However, the standard model central values for $\Delta M_{B_s}$ and also $\Delta M_ {B_d}$ are away from the data which may be indications of new physics. Using the observed values of $\Delta M_{B_s}$ and $\Delta M_{B_d}$ we study general constraints on flavor changing $Z^\prime$ interactions. In models with non-universal $Z^\prime$ couplings we find that significant enhancements over the standard model are still possible in the rare decay modes $B\to X_s \tau^+ \tau^-$, $B\to X_s \nu \bar \nu$ and $B_s\to \tau^+ \tau^-$. Tree level $Z^\prime$ contributions to $K\to \pi \nu\bar \nu$ are now constrained to be very small, but one loop effects can still enhance the standard model rate by a factor of two.
