Probe of the Anomalous Quartic Couplings with Beam Polarization at the CLIC

Abstract

We have investigated the anomalous quartic couplings defined by the dimension-8 operators in semileptonic decay channel of the $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow ν_{e} W^{-} W^{+} \barν_{e}$ process for unpolarized and polarized electron (positron) beam at the Compact Linear Collider. We give the $95\%$ confidence level bounds on anomalous $\frac{f_{S0}}{Λ^{4}}$, $\frac{f_{S1}}{Λ^{4}}$ and $\frac{f_{T0}}{Λ^{4}}$ couplings for various values of the integrated luminosities and center-of-mass energies. The best sensitivities obtained on anomalous $\frac{f_{S0}}{Λ^{4}}$, $\frac{f_{S1}}{Λ^{4}}$ and $\frac{f_{T0}}{Λ^{4}}$ couplings through the process $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow ν_{e} W^{-} W^{+} \barν_{e}$ with beam polarization at $\sqrt{s}=3$ TeV and an integrated luminosity of $L_{int}=2000$ fb$^{-1}$ are $[-4.05;\, 3.67]\times 10^{-12}$ GeV$^{-4}$, $[-3.08; \, 2.12]\times 10^{-12}$ GeV$^{-4}$, $[-1.98; \, 0.64]\times 10^{-13}$ GeV$^{-4}$, which show improvement over the current bounds.
