Abstract
Determining the spin of any new particle is critical in identifying the true theory among various extensions of the standard model (SM). The degree of -boson polarization in any two-body decay process is sensitive to the spin assignments of two new particles and . Considering all possible spin-0, , and 1 combinations in a renormalizable field theory, we demonstrate that -boson polarization can indeed play a role of a decisive and universal analyzer in distinguishing the different spin assignments.
