Description
Heavy neutral gauge boson $Z'$ are predicted by many theoretical schemes of physics beyond the Standard Model, and intensive searches for their signatures will be performed at the next-generation high energy electron-positron colliders. It is quite possible that $Z'$ is heavy enough to lie beyond the discovery reach expected at the LHC, in which case only indirect signatures of Z′ exchanges may occur at future colliders, through deviations of the measured cross sections from the Standard Model predictions.
We here assess the identification reaches on Z′ gauge boson pertinent to the SSM, LR, ALR and E$_{6}$ classes of models at the planned International Linear Collider (ILC) and Compact Linear Collider (CLIC).
Based on the previously developed model-independent analysis methodology, model-dependent constraints on the Z′ mass have been derived in this paper.
