Can Up FCNC solve the ΔACPΔA_{CP} puzzle?

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

We investigate the attempt using flavor violation gauge interaction in the up sector to explain the LHCb recently observed large ΔACPΔA_{CP} (ACP(D0→K+K−)−ACP(D0→π+π−)A_{CP}(D^{0}\to K^{+}K^{-})-A_{CP}(D^{0}\to π^{+}π^{-})). We study an Abelian model that only right-handed up quarks is charged under it and the 1-3 coupling is maximized. The simultaneous 1-3 2-3 mixing is realized by a quark mixing of 1-2 generation. Given the easy identification of top quark, the model can be directly tested by ΔF=1ΔF=1 and ΔF=2ΔF=2 processes at the hadron colliders as associated top production gc→tZ′g c \to t Z^{\prime} or same-sign top scattering uu→ttu u\to t t. The direct search bounds are still consistent with the assumption that utut and ctct couplings are equal but the same-sign top scattering bound is expected to be reached very soon. However, since there is no CKM-like suppression, the corresponding parameter space for generating ΔACPΔA_{CP} is completely excluded by the D0−Dˉ0D^{0}-\bar{D}^{0} mixing. We conclude that the up FCNC type models cannot explain the ΔACPΔA_{CP} while to be consistent with the D0−Dˉ0D^{0}-\bar{D}^{0} mixing constraint at the same time. On the other hand, a model as SM with fourth family extension has better chance to explain the large ΔACPΔA_{CP} consistently.
