We investigate the possibility of probing an anomalous CP-violating coupling in the HWW vertex at the LHC. We consider the production of the Higgs in association of a W and then decay via the $H \rightarrow WW$ channel taking into account…
Possible anomalous (or nonstandard) top-quark interactions with the gluon and those with the W boson induced by SU(3) x SU(2) x U(1) gauge-invariant dimension-6 effective operators are studied in p p -> t tbar X -> l^+ X' (l=e or mu) at the…
We present the measurement of R = B(t->Wb)/B(t->Wq) in ppbar collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV, using 230 pb-1 of data collected by the DO experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We fit simultaneously R and the number of selected top…
The most general parametrization of the $tbW$ vertex includes a right coupling $V_R$ that is zero at tree level in the standard model. This quantity may be measured at the Large Hadron Collider where the physics of the top decay is…

We study some New Physics effects on the hadronic decays of the Top quark, like t-> b bbar c, and on a forward-backward-like CP even asymmetry A_t constructed in such a way that it is zero in the SM. We find that an anomalous right-handed…

We revisit the effect of CP violating anomalous top-quark couplings in $t\bar{t}$ production and decay. We consider $t\bar{t}$ production through gluon fusion (and light $q{\bar q}$ annihilation) followed by top-quark decay into $bW$ or…

We propose a sensitive way to test the anomalous HVV couplings (V=W(+/-),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…
The anomalously large like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in semileptonic b-hadron decays recently measured by the D0 Collaboration may be hinting at the presence of CP-violating new physics in the mixing of B_s mesons. It has been suggested…
