Findings

Stronger mass limits for the $G'$-boson than for axigluons.

Allowed parameter space constrained by Tevatron data.

Potential observable effects of $G'$-boson at the LHC.

Abstract

A gauge model with chiral color symmetry is considered and possible effects of the color $G'$-boson octet predicted by this symmetry are investigated in dependence on two free parameters, the mixing angle $\theta_G$ and $G'$ mass $m_{G'}$. The allowed region in the $m_{G'} - \theta_G$ plane is found from the Tevatron data on the cross section $\sigma_{t\bar{t}}$ and forward-backward asymmetry $A_{\rm FB}^{p \bar p}$ of the $t\bar{t}$ production. The mass limits for the $G'$-boson are shown to be stronger than those for the axigluon. A possible effect of the $G'$-boson on the $t\bar{t}$ production at the LHC is discussed and the mass limits providing for the $G'$-boson evidence at the LHC are estimated in dependence on $\theta_G$.
