Decays of a leptophobic gauge boson

We discuss the theory and phenomenology of decays of a leptophobic U(1)x gauge boson X, such as has been proposed to explain the alleged deviations of Rb and Rc from standard model predictions. If the scalars involved in the breaking of the SU(2) × U(1) symmetry are sufficiently light, X will sometimes decay into a charged (or neutral) scalar along with an oppositely-charged W (or Z). These decay modes could yield clean signals for the leptophobic gauge bosons at hadron colliders and provide an interesting window into the Higgs sector of the theory.
