Discovering b' through its FCNC decays
Description
This paper reports that the fourth generation b' quark, if it exists, may have unusual decay properties. Within the Standard Model framework, for a wide range of the parameters, mb', mt, mt', MH, Vcb, and Vtb', FCNC b' → b transitions could be substantial, even dominating over CC decays. Interesting FCNC decays would be b' → bγ, b' → bg, b' → bZ double-prime, b' → bZ and b' → bH0. Search strategies should be broadened to take into account these decay modes
