Vacuum stability implies a lower limit on the mass of the higgs boson in the Standard Model (SM). In contrast, an upper limit on the lightest higgs mass can be calculated in supersymmetric (susy) models. The main uncertainty in each limit…

Current analyses of the LHC data put stringent bounds on strongly interacting supersymmetric particles, restricting the masses of squarks and gluinos to be above the TeV scale. However, the supersymmetric electroweak sector is poorly…

The measurement of the inclusive $Wt$ cross-section at 13 TeV is performed using 3.2$\,\text{fb}{^{-1}}$ of proton--proton collision data collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC in 2015. Events are required to have at least one jet and…
The single-top production cross section is one third that of the top-pair production cross section at the LHC. During a year of data-taking, assuming an average luminosity of 10^33 cm-2 s-1 and a CMS energy of 14 TeV, the determination of…
We show that a $Wjj$ excess in Tevatron data could be explained in the context of the standard non-supersymmetric two-Higgs-doublet model for appropriately chosen parameters. Correlated signals in the $\gamma\gamma$ and $W^+ W^- b \anti b$…
Most supersymmetric models predict new particles within the reach of the next generation of colliders. For an understanding of the model structure and the mechanism(s) of electroweak symmetry breaking, it is important to know the masses of…
Stoponium, a bound state of top squark and its antiparticle in a supersymmetric model, may be found in the ongoing Higgs searches at the LHC. Its WW and ZZ detection ratios relative to the Standard Model Higgs boson can be more than unity…
How light can the stop be given current experimental constraints? Can it still be lighter than the top? In this paper, we study this and related questions in the context of gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking, where a stop NLSP decays…
In this paper we compare $H^+H^-$ and $W^+W^-$ into four-fermion production at centre-of-mass energies typical of LEP2 and somewhat larger. The theoretical framework considered is the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. The interest in…
We consider the regions of the MSSM parameter space where the top squarks become light and even may be the LSP. This happens when the triple scalar coupling A becomes very big compared to m_0. We show that in this case the requirement that…
We provide a possible interpretation of excesses reported by ATLAS and CMS at around 95GeV, 650GeV and possibly 320GeV, in terms of CP-even scalars. In particular, the combined {\sl global} statistical significances of independent…
