The D0 same-charge dimuon asymmetry and possibile new CP violation sources in the Bs-Bs system

Abstract

Recently, the D0 collaboration reported a large CP violation in the same-sign dimuon charge asymmetry which has the 3.2 σ deviation from the value estimated in the Standard Model. In this paper, several new physics models are considered: the MSSM, two Higgs doublet model, the recent dodeca model, and a new Z' model. Generally, it is hard to achieve such a large CP violation consistently with other experimental constraints. We find that a scheme with extra non-anomalous U(1)' gauge symmetry is barely consistent. In general, the extra Z' gauge boson induces the flavor changing neutral current interactions at tree level, which is the basic reason allowing a large new physics CP violation. To preserve the U(1)' symmetry at high energy, SU(2)L singlet exotic heavy quarks of mass above 1 TeV and the Standard Model gauge singlet scalars are introduced.
