MASS LIMITS for Leptoquarks from Single Production

INSPIRE   PDGID:
S056ESP
These limits depend on the ${{\mathit q}}-{{\mathit \ell}}$-leptoquark coupling $\mathit g_{\mathit LQ}$. It is often assumed that $\mathit g{}^{2}_{\mathit LQ}/4{{\mathit \pi}}$=1/137. Limits shown are for a scalar, weak isoscalar, charge $−$1/3 leptoquark.

1  SIRUNYAN 2021J search for single production of charge $−$1/3 scalar leptoquarks decaying to ${{\mathit t}}{{\mathit \tau}^{-}}$ and ${{\mathit b}}{{\mathit \nu}}$ , and charge 2/3 vector leptoquarks decaying to ${{\mathit t}}{{\mathit \nu}}$ and ${{\mathit b}}{{\mathit \tau}^{+}}$ in ${{\mathit p}}{{\mathit p}}$ collisions at $\sqrt {s }$ = 13 TeV. The limit quoted above assumes a scalar leptoquark with B( ${{\mathit t}}{{\mathit \tau}}$ ) = B( ${{\mathit b}}{{\mathit \nu}}$ ) = 0.5 and the leptoquark coupling strength ${{\mathit \lambda}}$ = 1.5. The limit becomes ${{\mathit M}_{{LQ}}}$ $>$ 750 GeV for ${{\mathit \lambda}}$ = 2.5.
2  SIRUNYAN 2018BJ search for single production of charge 2/3 scalar leptoquarks decaying to ${{\mathit \tau}}{{\mathit b}}$ in ${{\mathit p}}{{\mathit p}}$ collisions at $\sqrt {s }$ = 13 TeV. The limit above assumes B( ${{\mathit \tau}}{{\mathit b}}$ ) =1 and the leptoquark coupling strength $\lambda $ = 1.
3  KHACHATRYAN 2016AG search for single production of charge $\pm{}$1/3 scalar leptoquarks using ${{\mathit e}}{{\mathit e}}{{\mathit j}}$ events in ${{\mathit p}}{{\mathit p}}$ collisions at $\sqrt {s }$ = 8 TeV. The limit above assumes B( ${{\mathit e}}{{\mathit q}}$ ) = 1 and the leptoquark coupling strength ${{\mathit \lambda}}$ = 1.
4  KHACHATRYAN 2016AG search for single production of charge $\pm{}$1/3 scalar leptoquarks using ${{\mathit \mu}}{{\mathit \mu}}{{\mathit j}}$ events in ${{\mathit p}}{{\mathit p}}$ collisions at $\sqrt {s }$ = 8 TeV.

5  ABRAMOWICZ 2012A limit is for a scalar, weak isoscalar, charge $-1$/3 leptoquark coupled with ${{\mathit e}_{{R}}}$. See their Figs. $12 - 17$ and Table 4 for states with different quantum numbers.
6  Limit from single production in ${{\mathit Z}}$ decay. The limit is for a leptoquark coupling of electromagnetic strength and assumes B( ${{\mathit \ell}}{{\mathit q}}$ ) = 2/3. The limit is 77 GeV if first and second leptoquarks are degenerate.
7  AAD 2022E leptoquarks decaying both to ${{\mathit u}}{{\mathit e}^{-}}$ and ${{\mathit c}}{{\mathit \mu}^{-}}$ are constrained from the comparison of the production cross sections for ${{\mathit e}^{+}}{{\mathit \mu}^{-}}$ and ${{\mathit e}^{-}}{{\mathit \mu}^{+}}$ in ${{\mathit p}}{{\mathit p}}$ collisions at $\sqrt {s }$ = 13 TeV. Scalar leptoquarks with $\mathit M_{LQ}$ $<$ 1880 GeV are excluded for ${{\mathit g}^{eu}}$ = ${{\mathit g}}{}^{ {{\mathit \mu}} {{\mathit c}} }$ = 1.
8  TUMASYAN 2021D search for energetic jets + $\not E_T$ events in ${{\mathit p}}{{\mathit p}}$ collisions at $\sqrt {s }$ = 13 TeV.
