Abstract

We propose some channels for the possible observation of anomalous interactions of the fourth standard model generation quarks at the Large Hadron Collider based ep and gamma-p colliders. Namely, u₄ (d₄) -> q gamma and u₄ (d₄) -> q Z -> q l⁺ l^- decay processes are considered. Signatures for signals and corresponding standard model backgrounds are investigated at both colliders comperatively. The lowest necessary luminosities to observe these processes and the achievable values of the anomalous coupling strengths are determined. It is shown that the gamma-p collider is advantageous compare to the ep collider.
