We examine the indirect effect of the new physics. The virtual effects of the trilinear gauge coupling of the photon to W+W- on the b ® sg decay has been tested considering the possibility of the fourth generation in the quark sector, with corrections up to leading QCD logarithmas, using evolution of the fourth-generation CKM matrix with CP-violation phase equal to zero. Range of mass of the fourth-generation down-type quark b¢ and that of fourth generation up-type quark t¢ have been taken with due observance of the constraint imposed by the present experimental value of the r parameter, keeping in view the mass difference of the fourth-generation quark doublet. Strong-interaction coupling constant, however, is taken on matching scale of Z-boson mass.
