TL;DR
In models where the quark sector is extended in a nonsequential way, there are {ital Z}-mediated flavor-changing neutral currents at the tree level that may dominate mixing in neutral-{ital B} systems.
Abstract
In models where the quark sector is extended in a nonsequential way, there are Z-mediated flavor-changing neutral currents at the tree level. These may dominate mixing in neutral-B systems. Unitarity of the three-generation Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix is violated, and new phases take part in quark mixing. All these effects modify significantly the predictions for CP asymmetries in B0 decays. The various aspects of new physics can be probed separately by testing specific relations among these CP asymmetries. © 1990 The American Physical Society.

It is shown that a variety of constraints, including the relation between the W and Z masses and the Fermi constant, charged-current universality, limits on induced right-handed charged currents, and flavor-diagonal neutral currents suffice to limit all directions in parameter space that are not excluded by the absence of flavor-changing neutral currents.

It is shown how relations among various classes of {ital CP} asymmetries in {ital B}{sup 0} decays can be used to test the unitarity of the three-generation Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix, independently of the mechanism of mixing in the{ital B} and {ital K}{Sup 0} systems.
