Projected sensitivity to dimension-6 triple gauge couplings at the FCC-hh
Abstract
In this study, we investigate the process pp→W±γ for the physics potential of the FCC-hh with s=100 TeV to examine the anomalous WWγ couplings defined by three CP-conserving and two CP-violating effective operators of dimension-6. The analysis containing the realistic detector effects is carried out in the mode where W± bosons in the final state decay into the leptonic channel. The best sensitivities obtained from the process pp→W±γ on the anomalous couplings CWWW/Λ2 and CW,B/Λ2 determined by CP-conserving effective Lagrangians are [−0.010;0.010] TeV−2 and [−0.40;0.41] TeV−2, while CW˜WW/Λ2 and CW˜/Λ2 couplings defined by CP-violating effective Lagrangian are obtained as [−0.003;0.003] TeV−2 and [−0.32;0.33] TeV−2 at the FCC-hh with Lint=30 ab−1. However, if the systematic uncertainty is included, we obtain reduced sensitivities on the anomalous WWγ coupling. The results are compared for assumed systematics of 5% and 10%.
