The scattering of $W$, $Z$ and Higgs bosons in the Standard Model is investigated in the region $s,m_H^2\gg m_W^2$ with no restrictions on relative sizes of $s$ and $m_H^2$, so that our results are applicable at energies below as well as…
We propose a sensitive way to test the anomalous HVV couplings (V=W^\pm, Z^0) of the Higgs boson (H), which can arise from either the dimension-3 effective operator in a nonlinearly realized Higgs sector or the dimension-6 effective…

We examine the scattering of longitudinal $W$, $Z$ and Higgs bosons in the Standard Model using the equivalent Goldstone-boson Lagrangian. Our calculations include the full one-loop scattering matrix between the states $W^+_LW^-_L$,…
More evidences have now been collected at the Large Hadron Collider suggesting the new 125 - 126 GeV boson is likely the long sought Higgs boson in the standard model. One pressing question continued being asked by theorists is whether this…
WW scattering is dominated at high energies by their longitudinal components, which are the most sensitive to the nature of the electroweak symmetry breaking. Prior to the discovery at the LHC of a Higgs-like particle, unitarization tools…
What if only a light Higgs boson is discovered at the CERN LHC? Conventional wisdom tells us that the scattering of longitudinal weak gauge bosons would not grow strong at high energies. We show that this is not always true. In some…
Scalar tops in the supersymmetric model affect the potential of the standard model-like Higgs at the quatum level. In light of the equivalence theorem, the deviation of the potential from the standard model can be traced by longitudinal…

In the absence of a light Higgs boson, the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking will be best studied in processes of vector boson scattering at high mass. Various models predict resonances in this channel. Scalar and vector resonances…
We consider the phenomenological consequences of a hidden Higgs sector extending the Standard Model (SM), in which the ``shadow Higgs'' are uncharged under the SM gauge groups. We consider a simple U(1) model with one Higgs singlet. One…
