Vector-like quarks with a scalar triplet

We study a minimal extension to the Standard Model with an additional real scalar triplet, σ, and a single vector-like quark, T. This class of models appear naturally in extensions of the Littlest Higgs model that incorporate dark matter without the need of T-parity. We assume the limit that the tri...

description We study a minimal extension to the Standard Model with an additional real scalar triplet, σ, and a single vector-like quark, T. This class of models appear naturally in extensions of the Littlest Higgs model that incorporate dark matter without the need of T-parity. We assume the limit that the triplet does not develop a vacuum expectation value and that all dimension five operators coupling the triplet to Standard Model fields and the vector-like quarks are characterized by the scale Λ at which we expect new physics to arise. We introduce new non-renormalizable interactions between the new scalar sector and fermion sector that allow mixing between the Standard Model third generation up-type quark and the vector-like quark in a way that leads to the cancellation of the leading quadratic divergences to the one-loop corrections from the top quark to the mass of the Higgs boson. Within this framework, new decay modes of the vector-like quark to the real scalar triplet and SM particles arise and bring forth an opportunity to probe this model with existing and future LHC data.
