We present a search for flavor changing neutral currents in decays of top quarks. The analysis is based on a search for ttbar -> l'null + jets (l, l' = e, mu) final states using 4.1 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity of ppbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV. We extract limits on the branching ratio B(t -> Zq) (q = u, c quarks), assuming anomalous tuZ or tcZ couplings. We do not observe any sign of such anomalous coupling and set a limit of B < 3.2% at 95% C.L.

  1. Sensitivity to top-quark FCNC interactions at future muon colliders

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 4.0

    A 10 TeV muon collider with 10 ab^{-1} could reach O(10^{-3}) sensitivity on top-quark FCNC couplings, improving current ATLAS/CMS bounds by more than an order of magnitude.
