Description of the model

This model is an extension of the SM, featuring a vector leptoquark (U1~(3,2)2/3), a colored vector (G'~(8,1)0), and a Z' (Z'~(1,1)0) as new heavy mediators.
The implementation of the model is based on "High-pT Signatures in Vector-Leptoquark Models" (arXiv:1901.10480). If you use our model file please cite this reference.

Model Files

vector_LQ.fr: This is the Feynrules model file for the vector leptoquark.
coloron.fr: This is the Feynrules model file for the vector color-octect.
Zprime.fr: This is the Feynrules model file for the Z' .

Model Restrictions

Massless.rst: This restriction file set all the masses and Yukawas to zero, except for the ones of the top quark.

Instructions

The model is loaded by merging the model files SM.fr, vector_LQ.fr, coloron.fr and Zprime.fr. Alternatively, one exclude the model files coloron.fr or Zprime.fr, if the user is not interested in these mediators.
The implementation allows for the use of the Feynman gauge in the SM.The switch between the two gauge is achieved via FeynmanGauge = True/False (see StandardModel).

Examples

model_gen.nb: This is an example Mathematica® notebook that loads the Feynrules model files and calculates UFO model.
widths.nb: This is an example Mathematica® notebook that loads the Feynrules model files and calculates the Feynman rules and widths of the new vectors.

Interfaces

This model implementation is known to work with the following interfaces:

Validation

An alternative Feynrules implementation for the vector leptoquark model (but with interactions to left-handed SM fermions only) is available in https://lqnlo.hepforge.org. We have cross-checked our leptoquark implementation (with β33 = 0) against this one, finding a perfect agreement between the two.
