Description

I will discuss the phenomenology of a class of models which couple new U(1) sectors to the Standard Model through triple gauge boson couplings. My primary focus will be on dimension 6 pseudovector couplings, which can arise in models incorporating anomaly cancellation mechanisms. We find the discovery reach for such a model, and find that the LHC can reach well into the TeV scale. I will also briefly discuss scalar, pseudoscalar, and vector three boson couplings, and how event topology can be used to differentiate between these models.
