Abstract
We investigate the observability of the top anomalous tqZ couplings via the trilepton signatures at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) with the center-of-mass energy of 14 TeV. We focus on signals of the tZ associated production with the decay mode tâW+bâbâ+νâ, Zââ+ââ, and tt¯ production with the decay mode t¯âZ(ââ+ââ)q¯ and tâbâ+νâ, where â=e,μ and q reflects up and charm quarks. It is shown that at 3Ï level, the FCNC top quark decay branching ratios can be probed at, respectively, about Br(tâuZ)â¤1.3Ã10â4 and Br(tâcZ)â¤4.2Ã10â4 with the integrated luminosity of 100 fbâ1, and probed down to Br(tâuZ)â¤2.2Ã10â5 and Br(tâcZ)â¤8Ã10â5 for the high-luminosity LHC with 3000 fbâ1.
