The phenomenology of the next left-handed quarks

The observation of ϒ(9.5) suggests that the -onium of at least one new quark has been discovered. We discuss the production and decays of the lowest-lying vector states. Recent observations have no indications of right-handed currents in antineutrino-nucleon scattering. We discuss the properties of...

Summary:The observation of ϒ(9.5) suggests that the -onium of at least one new quark has been discovered. We discuss the production and decays of the lowest-lying vector states. Recent observations have no indications of right-handed currents in antineutrino-nucleon scattering. We discuss the properties of new states made of t ( charge = 2 3 ) or b ( charge = −1 3 ) quarks in a model with just left-handed currents. Particular attention is paid to decay modes, production by neutrinos or antineutrinos, the analogues of K 0 − K 0 mixing, and CP violation.
