abstract

We study some phenomenological effects of kinetic mixing between the hypercharge field and a new $U(1)$ gauge field in specific $Z^\prime$ models that ameliorate the tensions between measurements and Standard Model predictions in $b \rightarrow s\ell^+ \ell^-$ decays. To this end, we rederive the dimension-6 SMEFT coefficients resulting from integrating out the kinetically-mixed (`malaphoric') $Z^\prime$ field. The kinetic mixing provides a family-universal component to the couplings of the $Z^\prime$ field, which can improve fits to lepton flavour universality observables. We show how kinetic mixing improves the best fit of the $B_3-L_2$ model to $b\rightarrow s$ data by 7.0 units of $\chi^2$ while remaining compatible with other relevant data sets such as electroweak precision observables and measurements of $e^+ e^- \rightarrow \ell^+ \ell^-$ at LEP2.

    Adding a single effective operator that makes the doubly charged Higgs decay into two leptons and a photon weakens current ATLAS limits from ~1.1 TeV to ~0.7 TeV, but requiring a hard photon in the final state restore...

  2. Constraints on the malaphoric $B_3-L_2$ model from di-lepton resonance searches at the LHC

    hep-ph 2024-12 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    New bounds from ATLAS 13 TeV di-lepton searches force the malaphoric B3-L2 Z' to exceed 2.8 TeV to preserve its b to s l+ l- fit, and the HL-LHC is expected to reach 4.2 TeV.

  3. The Plan B Model: $Z^{\prime}$ collider phenomenology and discovery prospects

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Current LHC data exclude a significant portion of the Plan B Model's preferred parameter space, and the HL-LHC could extend sensitivity to Z′ masses around 2.5 TeV.
