We discuss the non-decoupling effects on the loop-induced $H^\pm W^\mp Z^0$ vertex in the general two Higgs-doublet model. The decay process $H^\pm \to W^\pm Z^0$ is analyzed at one-loop level and possible enhancement of the decay width is…
The effect of new operators that only modify the bosonic couplings of the Higgs boson, without altering the WW\gamma or WWZ three-point functions, are examined in the e+e- -> ZZ\gamma and Z\gamma\gamma processes. We analyse the constraints…

The Higgs particle can decay dominantly into an invisible channel in the Majoron models. We have explored the prospect of detecting such a Higgs particle at LHC via its associated production with a gluon, Z or W boson. While the…
We examine Higgs boson production and decay in heavy-ion collisions at the LHC and future colliders. Owing to the long lifetime of the Higgs boson, its hadronic decays may experience little or no screening from the hot and dense quark-gluon…

We examine the contribution of W boson loops to the amplitude of the process H --> \gamma \gamma within the dispersion relation approach, taking up an issue raised in this context recently. We show that the non-vanishing limit of the…
We study charged Higgs production in the process $\gamma\gamma\to A^0\to W^- H^+$. The processes $\gamma\gamma\to A^0$ are loop mediated in a 2HDM. This is due to the fact that photons only couple directly to charged particles and the Higgs…
We address momentum entanglement in Higgs decays to weak boson pairs, $H \to WW,ZZ$, by discretising momentum space. The momenta of the two weak bosons are entangled, as well as the degrees of freedom in momentum and spin spaces. For $H \to…
We analyse some features of WW scattering processes at LHC. The severe cancellations between fusion diagrams and the other contributions evidence the necessity of complete calculations for studying the high WW invariant mass region and…
Since the photon has no mass, it does not couple directly to the Higgs particle. This implies that the one-loop correction to the decay H --> \gamma\gamma\ is necessarily finite. Therefore, this correction should be calculable without…
The addition of a Higgs quadruplet to the standard model (SM) of quarks and leptons would shift the $W$ boson mass upward. It could also facilitate the production of dark matter through the conventional thermal freeze-out scenario via…

The study of WW Higgs boson decays is one of the key elements of the LHC physics program, as these decays are dominant close to the WW resonance. Recent results obtained using the full simulation of the detector are presented in the…
