Abstract:
We calculate the typical size of loop corrections to electroweak observables arising from non-standard ZttZ {\overline t } t and WtbW t b vertices. We use an effective Lagrangian formalism based on the electroweak gauge group SU(2)L×U(1)YU(1)EMSU(2)_L\times U(1)_Y \rightarrow U(1)_{EM}. Limits on the non-standard model top quark couplings from electroweak observables are presented and compared with previously obtained limits.
