We examine current Large Hadron Collider constraints on some simple models that significantly improve on Standard Model fits to transition data. The models that we consider are the ‘third family baryon number minus second family lepton number’ (
) model and the ‘third family hypercharge’ model and variants. The constraints are applied on parameter regions of each model that fit the transition data and come from high-mass Drell–Yan di-muons and measurements of Standard Model processes. This latter set of observables place particularly strong bounds upon the parameter space of the model when the mass of the boson is less than 300 GeV.
