We calculate cross sections for mixed stop-sbottom pair production at the LHC, analogous to single-top production, a weak process involving the W-t(i)-b(j) vertex. While coupling-suppressed relative to QCD same-flavor squark pair…
With the advent of the LHC, it is important to devise clear tests for Physics Beyond the Standard Model. Such physics could manifest itself in the form of new charged bosons, whose presence is most naturally occurring in left-right…

Motivated by the observation of the first hidden charm pentaquarks by the LHCb collaboration in 2015 and the updated analysis with an order-of-magnitude larger data set in 2019, we estimate their cross sections for the prompt production as…
We present a systematic study of the different mechanisms leading to WW pair production at the LHC, both in the same-sign and opposite-sign channels, and we emphasize that the former offers much better potential for investigating…
We present predictions for centrality-dependent charged-hadron production in p-O collisions at top LHC energies based on a nonequilibrium-statistical relativistic diffusion model. Colour-glass condensate initial conditions are used in a…
The spin-singlet P-wave state of charmonium, hc(1P1), has been observed in the decay psi(2S) -> pi0 hc followed by hc -> gamma etac. Inclusive and exclusive analyses of the M(hc) spectrum have been performed. Two complementary inclusive…

Based on the color-singlet model, we investigate the photoproduction of $J/\psi$ associated with a $c \bar{c}$ pair with all subprocesses including the direct, single-resolved, and double-resolved channels. The amplitude squared of these…
We report on the perspective measurements of inclusive particle production in high-energy p-p collisions with data to be collected by the LHCb experiment at CERN's LHC. These include V0 and D meson production studies, which can be based on…
We calculate the next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD corrections to the $J/\psi +W$ production at the LHC, and provide the theoretical distribution of the $J/\psi$ transverse momentum. Our results show that the differential cross section…
Single top quarks in the $t$ channel are produced though the electroweak force and are therefore an excellent way to probe the electroweak sector of the standard model with top quark physics. The recent cross section measurement of single…

The High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) phase is designed to increase by an order of magnitude the amount of data to be collected by the LHC experiments. The foreseen gradual increase of the instantaneous luminosity of up to more than twice its…
The leading order production of an SM singlet-like scalar has primarily been realized through the gluon fusion process by mixing with the $SU(2)_L$ scalar doublet of the model. The dominant part of the physical state, i.e., the singlet…
