Neutral-current constraint and gauge models. [Cross sections, quark model, SU(2)XU(1) guage models]

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., D; (United States)

The experimental observation R/sup nu-bar//R/sup ..nu../ < sigma/sup ..nu..//sub cc//sigma/sub cc//sup nu-bar/, i.e., sigma/sup ..nu..//sub nc/ > sigma/sub nc//sup nu-bar/, where sigma/sub cc,//sup ..nu..//sup( nu-bar)/ are the ..nu..- (nu-bar-) induced charge- and neutral-current inclusive cross sections on an isospin-0 nucleon and R/sup ..nu..//sup( nu-bar)/ = sigma/sub nc//sup ..nu..//sup( nu-bar)//sigma/sub cc//sup ..nu..//sup( nu-bar)/, provides a constraint on the possible quark representations among various SU(2) x U(1) gauge models. We have examined the energy dependence of both ..nu..- (nu-bar-) induced charged- and neutral-current processes in the models which respect the constraint. Some of the models contain one or a few heavy quarks with an exotic charge of Q = 5/3 and/or -4/3. (AIP)
