The presence of charged Higgs bosons is a generic prediction of multiplet extensions of the Standard Model (SM) Higgs sector. Focusing on the Two-Higgs-Doublet-Model (2HDM), we discuss the charged Higgs boson collider phenomenology in the…
This paper derives a large web of exact lattice dualities in one and two spatial dimensions. Some of the dualities are well-known, while others, such as two-dimensional boson-parafermion dualities, are new. The procedure is systematic,…
We apply novel jet techniques to investigate the spin and CP quantum numbers of a heavy resonance X, singly produced in pp -> X -> ZZ -> l(+)l(-)jj at the LHC. We take into account all dominant background processes to show that this…
The high mass neutral quantum states envisaged by theories of physics beyond the standard model can at the hadron colliders reveal themselves through their decay into a pair of photons. Once such a peak in the diphoton invariant mass…
The high center-of-mass energy at the LHC provides the opportunity to test the predictions of some of the beyond the standard model theories. We provide an overview of a selected number of searches for new fermions and new bosons with the…
New developments in the anomaly free compact 341 model are discussed and the higgs bosons decay modes are studied taking into account the contributions of new fermions, gauge bosons and scalar bosons predicted by the model. It is shown from…
We study the possibility of detecting the Higgs boson in the intermediate mass range via its two jet channel. We consider only Higgs bosons produced in association with a $t \bar{t}$ pair. Both $t$ and $\bar{t}$ are required to decay…
We investigate the $W$ boson's exotic decay channel, $W \rightarrow \ell\ell\ell \nu$, at the LHC. Although the four-body final states suppress the decay branching ratio, the large production of $W$ bosons makes detecting and precisely…
After the recent discovery of a Higgs-like boson, the possibility of an enlarged scalar sector arises as a natural question. Experimental searches for charged scalars have been already performed with negative results. We analyze the…

Recent experiments on ultracold atoms in optical lattices have synthesized a variety of tunable bands with degenerate double-well structures in momentum space. Such degeneracies in the single particle spectrum strongly enhance quantum…
The search for the effects of heavy fermions in the extension of the Standard Model with a fourth generation is part of the experimental program of the Tevatron and LHC experiments. Besides being directly produced, these states affect…
In this article we discuss the measurement of spin at the LHC, in events with two unknown four-momenta. Central to this problem is the identification of spin-dependent kinematic variables and the construction of a statistical test that can…
The Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson, the most recently discovered elementary particle, may still serve as a mediator between the SM sector and a new physics sector related to dark matter (DM). The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has not yet…
Spin-orbit coupling plays a large role in stabilizing the low-temperature orthorhombic phase of La$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$. It splits the degeneracy of the van Hove singularities (thereby stabilizing the distorted phase) and completely changes…
The search for the Higgs boson, both in the context of the standard model and extensions to it, has been a key focus during Run II of the Tevatron. I report on the status of these searches, which are highlighted by evidence at the 3…
We present a statistical simulation replicating the correlation observed in EPR coincidence experiments without needing non-local connectivity. We define spin coherence as a spin attribute that complements polarization by being…
We present some of the most recent results from the CMS Collaboration on searches for Higgs-like particles in models beyond the Standard Model. Several rare and exotic decay modes of the Higgs boson are explored. The results of the searches…
We investigate the prospects for Central Exclusive Diffractive (CED) production of BSM Higgs bosons at the LHC using forward proton detectors installed at 220 m and 420 m distance around ATLAS and / or CMS. We update a previous analysis for…
