Direct search for heavy gauge bosons at the LHC in the nonuniversal SU(2) model

We study the phenomenology of heavy gauge bosons at the LHC in a nonuniversal gauge interaction model with the separate electroweak SU(2) gauge group for the third generation. Considered are the Drell-Yan processes into the final states of dilepton, dijet, $τ^- τ^+$, and $t \bar{t}$ for $Z'$ boson and those of lepton-neutrino for $W'$ boson. We find that the present LHC data provides lower bounds on the masses of the heavy gauge bosons, $m_{Z'},~m_{W'} > 2$ TeV, more stringent than indirect bounds, when $\sin^2 ϕ> 0.15$ for the mixing angle of two SU(2) gauge groups.We also note that the study of heavy resonances into the third generation fermions may provide some valuable information in the future.
