Next-to-Leading-Order (NLO) effects play a crucial role in tests of the Standard Model (SM), and require careful theoretical evaluation. Electroweak physics, which has just entered the precision age, is an excellent place to search for new…

Many models beyond the Standard Electroweak Theory, top-down or bottom-up, contain extensions of the gauge symmetry group by extra U(1)' factors which can be understood or treated as subgroups of E(6). A brief overview of such models is…
We consider a minimal extension to higher dimensions of the Standard Model, having one compactified dimension, and we study its experimental tests in terms of electroweak data. We discuss tests from high-energy data at the $Z$-pole, and…

Energy-growing electroweak corrections in the Standard Model are potentially relevant for LHC physics, for Next generation of Linear Colliders (NLCs) and for ultrahigh energy cosmic rays. I present here the results of recent work in which…
Is the weak scale natural? This ever pending question makes the search for new particle production a highly motivated primary goal of the next LHC phase. These searches may or may not be successful. While waiting for a needed higher energy…
