In the presence of an electric dipole coupling of the top quark to a photon, and an analogous "weak" dipole coupling to the Z, CP violation in the process e+e- -> t tbar leads to the polarization of the top and anti-top. This polarization…
Possible anomalous couplings of the top-quark to on-shell photons and gluons are constrained by the recent results of the CLEO Collaboration on both inclusive and exclusive radiative $B$ decays. We find that the process \bsg\ can lead to…
We study $CP$ violation in the process $e^+e^- \to t\bar{t} \nu\bar{\nu}$ at an $e^+e^-$-TeV collider. As the source of $CP$ violation we assume a two-Higgs doublet model with an explicitly $CP$-noninvariant Higgs potential. Sizeable…
The ATLAS and CMS collaborations observed a mild excess in the associated Higgs production with a top-quark pair ($t\bar t h$) and reported the signal strengths of $ \mu_{tth}^{\rm ATLAS}=1.81\pm 0.80$ and $\mu_{tth}^{\rm CMS}=2.75\pm 0.99…
We study CP-violating effects in neutralino production and subsequent decay within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with complex parameters M_1 and mu. The observable we propose is a T-odd asymmetry based on a triple product in…
Top-quark pair production is central to many facets of LHC physics. At leading order, the top and anti-top are produced in a back-to-back topology, however this topology accounts only for a minority of $t \bar t$ events with TeV-scale…
CP violating effects in top quark pair production at the future 2 TeV $p\bar p$ Tevatron and 14 TeV $pp$ LHC colliders are investigated. We study three kinds of CP violating sources:the supersymmetric CP-odd phase of the stop trilinear soft…
In this paper we determine the weak-interaction corrections of order $\alpha_s^2\alpha$ to hadronic top-quark pair production. First we compute the one-loop weak corrections to $t \bar t$ production due to gluon fusion and the order…
We investigate the potential of $e\gamma$ collisions to probe anomalous $Wtb$ couplings via the polarized single top quark production process $e^{+} \gamma \to t \bar{b} \bar{\nu_{e}}$. We find 95% confidence level limits on the anomalous…
The production of $\nu \bar{\nu} \gamma \gamma$ in high-energy $e^+e^-$ collisions offers a window on anomalous quartic gauge boson couplings. We investigate the effect of two possible anomalous couplings on the cross section for $\nu…
Spin correlations, using a generic spin basis, are investigated to leading order in QCD for top quark production at lepton colliders. Even though, these radiative corrections induce an anomalous gamma/Z magnetic moment for the top quarks…
We review the features of top-quark decays and loop-induced effects in the production cross section and CP-violating observables of e+e- -> t t-bar which are specific to the R-parity conserving Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM).
We report on our computation of the mixed QCD and weak corrections to $q {\bar q} \to t\bar{t}$ including $t, \bar t$ spin effects, in particular on single top spin asymmetries.
We calculate higher-order soft-gluon corrections for the associated production of a top-antitop quark pair and a Higgs boson ($t{\bar t}H$ production) using resummation in one-particle-inclusive (1PI) kinematics. By adding these corrections…
In this paper, we examine the interactions of the top quarks with the $Z$ boson using the top quark pair production associated with neutrino pair ($t\bar{t}\nu_{l}\bar{\nu_{l}}$) at the LHC. In particular, potential constraints on the…
Expecting the forthcoming experiment at the upgraded Fermilab Tevatron, we calculated CP-violating polarization asymmetry of t t-bar, A_{CP}= [sigma(p p-bar --> t(-) t-bar(-) X) - sigma(p p-bar --> t(+) t-bar(+) X)]/ sigma(p p-bar --> t…
We show that studying the single top quark production via the $W$--gluon fusion process can provide unique information on: (i) the measurement of the decay width $\width$; (ii) probing the symmetry breaking mechanism by measuring the form…
We study the $W$ boson associated single top quark production at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to probe anomalous chromo-magnetic and chromo-electric moments of the top quark with the help of polarization and spin correlation observables…
We propose several T-odd asymmetries in the decay chains of the top squarks $\tilde t_m \to t \tilde \chi^0_k$ and $t\to bW^+\to bl\nu$ and $\tilde\chi^0_k \to l^\pm\tilde l_n^\mp \to l^\pm l^\mp\tilde\chi^0_1$, for $l =e,\mu,\tau$. We…
We investigate a potentially large CP violating asymmetry in the neutral Higgs boson decay into a heavy quark pair or a $W^+$--$W^-$ pair. The source of the CP nonconservation is in the Yukawa couplings of the Higgs boson which can contain…
