This study contains the first realistic estimate for the CMS/LHC sensitivity to Flavour Changing Neutral Currents (FCNC) in the top quark sector. The non-Standard Model decays t→Zq and t→ γ q (where q = u, c) have been studied at √s = 14 TeV exploiting the leptonic decays of the Z⁰ boson and the photon. A realistic detector simulation has been used and the most important systematic effects have been addressed. The 5-sigma discovery limits for the two decays are BR(t→qZ)= 11.4 x 10⁻⁴ and BR(t→ γ q)= 5.7 x 10⁻⁴, allowing some models of new physics to be tested.

Theoretical Predictions

Rare B-decays induced by flavour-changing neutral currents (FCNC) is one of the promising candidates for probing physics beyond the Standard model. However, for identifying potential new physics from the data, reliable control over QCD contributions is necessary. We focus on one of such QCD contributions – the charming loops – that potentially can lead to difficulties in disentangling new physics effects from the observable and discuss the possibility to gain control over theoretical predictions for charming loops.
