We propose to utilize the average jet charge weighted single-spin asymmetry $A_e^{bQ}$ in the neutral current DIS scattering with one $b$-tagged jet produced at the EIC to probe the $Zb\bar{b}$ interactions. This novel observable is sensitive to the axial-vector component of the $Zb\bar{b}$ coupling and is complementary to the single-spin asymmetry measurement at the EIC and the $gg\to Zh$ cross section measurement at the HL-LHC in the determination of the $Zb\bar{b}$ couplings. We show that the apparent degeneracy of the $Zb\bar{b}$ couplings, implied by the LEP and SLC precision electroweak data, can be broken by the $A_e^{bQ}$ measurement at the EIC. With a large enough integrated luminosity collected at the EIC, the measurement of $A_e^{bQ}$ could also resolve the long-standing discrepancy of $A_{\rm FB}^b$ at the LEP, strongly dependent on the $b$-tagging efficiency.

  1. On Exclusive Coherent Production of Bosons in Electron-Proton Collisions

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A phenomenological 2-to-3 framework is constructed for exclusive boson electroproduction that matches flux-factorized predictions near Q^{2}=0 while capturing finite-Q^{2} effects at larger virtualities.

  2. Braking protons at the EIC: from invisible meson decay to new physics searches

    hep-ph 2025-12 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    The EIC can probe invisible pseudoscalar meson decays down to branching ratios of 10^{-8} and invisibly decaying ALPs with couplings up to 10^5 GeV for masses 0.1-2 GeV.

  3. Dihadron azimuthal asymmetry and light-quark dipole moments at the Electron-Ion Collider

    hep-ph 2024-08 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Proposal for a new observable—dihadron azimuthal asymmetry in unpolarized SIDIS at EIC—that isolates linear dependence on light-quark dipole couplings via SM-dipole interference.

  4. Flavor physics at the EIC with b-jet tagging

    hep-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 5.0

    Single b-jet counting in charged-current events at the EIC could probe new flavor-changing physics up to Λ_eff ≈ 5 TeV, about 30 times the collider energy, assuming tight b-tagging and polarized beams.
