摘要
We study the production and decay of neutral scalars and pseudoscalars at hadron colliders, in theories where the top quark mass is the result of a t (t) over bar condensate. We show that the dominant decay channel for masses below the t (t) over bar threshold is the flavor changing mode tc. This is a consequence of the nonuniversal nature of the underlying interactions in all top-condensation models and provides a model-independent signature of these scenarios. We show that an upgraded Tevatron is sensitive to a sizable region of the interesting parameter space and that the CERN Large Hadron Collider will highly constrain these models through this flavor violating channel.
