A long-standing discrepancy between the bottom-quark production cross section and predictions of perturbative quantum chromodynamics is addressed. We show that pair production of light gluinos, of mass 12 to 16 GeV, with two-body decays…
We define a lepton-based asymmetry in semi-leptonic ttbar production at the LHC. We show that the ratio of this lepton-based asymmetry and the ttbar charge asymmetry, measured as a function of the lepton transverse momentum or the ttbar…
The presence of a light b-squark (with mass about 4 GeV) and gluino (with mass about 15 GeV) might explain the observed excess in b-quark production at the Tevatron. Though provocative, this model is not excluded by present data. The light…
A gauge model with chiral color symmetry is considered and possible effects of the color $G'$-boson octet predicted by this symmetry are investigated in dependence on two free parameters, the mixing angle $\theta_G$ and $G'$ mass $m_{G'}$.…
The contributions into radiative correction parameters S, T, U from scalar leptoquark and scalar gluon doublets are investigated in the minimal four color symmetry model. It is shown that the current experimental data on S, T, U allow the…
We argue that the $t \bar t$ production asymmetry observed at the tevatron might be simply explained if the standard $SU(3)_c$ QCD theory is extended to $SU(N_c)$ which is spontaneously broken at a scale just above the weak scale. The…
The anomaly of the top quark forward-backward asymmetry $A^t_{FB}$ observed at the Tevatron can be explained by the t-channel exchange of a neutral gauge boson (Z') which has sizable flavor changing coupling for top and up quarks. This…
We study contributions of a scalar diquark particle in a color representation of anti-triplet and sextet to the top quark pair production at the Tevatron and the Large hadron collider (LHC). The model can give Forward-Backward (FB)…
We investigate a model of R-parity violating (RPV) supersymmetry in which the right-handed sbottom is the lightest supersymmetric particle, and a baryon number violating coupling involving a top is the only non-negligible RPV coupling. This…
The ATLAS collaboration (and also CMS) has recently reported an excess over Standard Model expectations for gauge boson pair production in the invariant mass region $1.8-2.2$ TeV. In the light of these results, we argue that such signal…
In the event that the Higgs mass is large or that the electroweak interactions are strongly interacting at high energy, top quark couplings to longitudinal components of the weak gauge bosons could offer important clues to the underlying…
In this talk, I describe a supersymmetric solution to the long-standing discrepancy between the bottom-quark production cross section and predictions of perturbative quantum chromodynamics. Pair production of light gluinos, of mass 12-16…
A flavor-universal extension of the strong interactions was recently proposed in response to the apparent excess of high-$E_T$ jets in the inclusive jet spectrum measured at the Tevatron. The color octet of massive gauge bosons (`colorons')…
We apply Bogoliubov compensation principle to the problem of forward-backward asymmetry in $t \bar t$ production at TEVATRON. The non-trivial solution of compensation equation for anomalous four-fermion interaction effective interaction of…

A reanalysis is presented on the CMS result on a search for a W' boson that couples to the top and down quarks. The model is motivated by the Tevatron results on the forward-backward asymmetry of ttbar pair production. In the evaluation of…
Models of top condensation can provide both a compelling solution to the hierarchy problem as well as an explanation of why the top-quark mass is large. The spectrum of such models, in particular topcolor-assisted technicolor, includes…
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 propose that, within the standard model, the correlation between the $t\bar{t}$ forward--backward asymmetry $A_{t\bar t}$ and the corresponding lepton-based asymmetry $A_l$ -- at the differential level -- is strong and rather clean both…
We present recent preliminary measurements at the Tevatron of t-tbar and single top production cross section, top quark mass and width, top pair spin correlations and forward-backward asymmetry. In the electroweak sector, we present the…
