Noncommutative standard model and polarization in charged gauge boson production at the LHC
Abstract
We study the pair production of charged gauge bosons at the LHC in a noncommutative extension of the standard model. We use angular distributions in the decays of the gauge bosons to partially reconstruct polarized cross sections. We use this, together with CP considerations, to construct more sensitive observables that allow us to separate space-time from space-space noncommutativities.
