We study the scope of the Large Hadron Collider in accessing a neutral Higgs boson of the $B-L$ Supersymmetric Standard Model. After assessing the surviving parameter space configurations following the Run 1 data taking, we investigate the…

We explore the discovery prospects for B'\bar{B}' pair production followed by direct decays B'->bX, where B' is a new quark and X is a long-lived neutral particle. We develop optimized cuts in the (m_B', m_X) plane and show that the 7 TeV…

The Higgs particle can decay dominantly into an invisible channel in the Majoron models. We have explored the prospect of detecting such a Higgs particle at LHC via its associated production with a gluon, Z or W boson. While the…
Associated production of a baryonic Z' boson with the W boson can account for the excess in Wjj production observed by the CDF collaboration at the Tevatron. We analyze other possible channels of this Z' at the Tevatron and at the LHC,…
We discuss the possibilities to observe the decays of heavy SUSY Higgs bosons into supersymmetric particles at the LHC. Such an observation would be of interest either in a discovery search if sparticle modes are the dominant ones, or in a…
Current searches for the light top squark (stop) mostly focus on the decay channels of $\tilde{t} \rightarrow t \chi_1^0$ or $\tilde{t} \rightarrow b \chi_1^\pm \rightarrow bW \chi_1^0$, leading to $t\bar{t}/bbWW+\met$ final states for stop…

The decay $K_L \to invisible$ has never been experimentally tested. In the Standard Model (SM) its branching ratio for the decay into two neutrinos is helicity suppressed and predicted to be $Br(K_L \to \nu \bar{\nu}) \lesssim 10^{-10}$. We…
In Higgsless models, new vector resonances appear to restore the unitarity of the W_L W_L scattering amplitude without the Higgs boson. In the ideal delocalized three site Higgsless model, one of large prodcution cross section of the…

Most of the current experimental searches for charged Higgs bosons at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) concentrate upon the $tb$ and $\tau\nu$ decay channels. In the present study, we analyze instead the feasibility of the bosonic decay…
