Axigluon as Possible Explanation for $p\bar{p} \to t\bar{t}$ Forward-Backward Asymmetry

Abstract

A flavor-nonuniversal chiral color model is introduced. It is used for comparison to the recent data on $\bar{p} p \to \bar{t} t$. We concluded that the data are consistent with interpretation as an axigluon exchange within 1$\sigma$ and a unique rise and fall behavior is predicated with regard to the asymmetry $A^t_{FB}$ as a function of $t \bar{t}$ invariant mass, which can distinguish our model from others before one discovers the axigluon resonance. Further aspects of the model are discussed.
