Abstract

Flavor changing effects on the processes t → ch, e+e → bbar s, e+e → bbar sh and pp → bbar s in the LHT model are investigated in this paper. We calculate the one-loop level contributions from the T-parity odd mirror fermions and gauge bosons. The results show that the top quark rare decay t → ch in the LHT model can be significantly enhanced relative to that in the SM. The bbar s production at linear colliders in the LHT model can enhance the SM cross section a lot and reach 0.1 fb in some parameter space allowed in the experiment. But the heavy gauge boson and mirror fermion loops have small contribution to the processes pp → bbar s and e+e → bbar sh. So the LHT effect on e+e → bbar s might be detected at future linear colliders, while it is too small to be seen for the e+e → bbar sh and pp → bbar s processes at future linear colliders and LHC.
