The recently observed mass difference of the [Formula: see text] mixing is used to predict the branching ratios of the rare top quark decays t → uγ and t → ug in a model-independent way using the effective Lagrangian approach. It is found that Br (t → uγ) < 4 × 10-4 and Br (t → ug) < 2 × 10-3, which may still be within reach of the LHC collider.

In this paper, we calculate rare top quark 2-body and 3-body decays in the littlest Higgs Model with T-parity (LHT). We find that the branching ratios of [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] can be greatly enhanced in the LHT model in the allowed parameter space. The recent measurements of the decay [Formula: see text] can give a strong constraint on the LHT parameters and the decays of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] can be accessible at the LHC.

The rare top quark decays mediated by a new neutral massive gauge boson that is predicted in models with extended gauge symmetries are studied. We focus on the processes [Formula: see text] induced at the one loop level, where [Formula: see text], by considering different extended models. It is found that, within a broad range of mass of the new neutral gauge boson, the models predict branching ratios for the decays in study that are competitive with respect to the corresponding branching ratios in the Standard Model (SM). In order to establish bound on our branching ratios, we consider the recent experimental bounds as [Formula: see text], depending on the model, which also impose restrictions on our calculation. Even in this case, the resulting branching ratios are of the same order of magnitude as that predicted by the SM. It should be noted that for the case of two models studied here, since no experimental bound exists to compare with, the results could be important, as they are, in the best of cases, two orders of magnitude larger than the predicted by the SM.

We have examined the constraints on the anomaloustqγ  (q=u,c)couplings through the processpp→pγp→pWbXat the LHC by considering four forward detector acceptances:0.0015<ξ<0.5,0.0015<ξ<0.15,0.015<ξ<0.15, and0.1<ξ<0.5, whereξ=Eγ/EwithEγandEthe energies of the photon and of the incoming proton, respectively. The sensitivity bounds on the anomalous couplings have been obtained at the 95% confidence level in a model independent effective Lagrangian approach. We have found that the bounds on these couplings can be highly improved compared to current experimental bounds.

We consider a scenario in which a dark matter can couple only to the top quark. The analysis is conducted by using the effective Lagrangian approach. In the light of the latest data on dark matter, we obtain a maximally allowed magnitude of the coupling between the dark matter and the top quark. The collider signature at the Large Hadron Collider is also discussed.
