Search for single production of a vector-like quark via a heavy gluon in the 4b final state with the ATLAS detector in pp collisions at √s = 8 TeV

A search is performed for the process pp → G∗ → B H ̄ b/B ̄ H b → Hb ̄ b → b ̄ bb ̄ b, predicted in composite Higgs scenarios, where G∗ is a heavy colour octet vector resonance and B H a vector-like quark of charge −1/3. The data were obtained from pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV c...
