One-loop corrections to the Zbb¯ vertex in models with scalar doublets and singlets

We study the one-loop corrections to the Zbb¯ vertex in extensions of the Standard Model with arbitrary numbers of scalar doublets, neutral scalar singlets, and charged scalar singlets. Starting with a general parameterization of theories with neutral and singly-charged scalar particles, we derive t...
