There are two strong arguments in favor of vector-like leptons and quarks: Flavor Democracy call for them, and E6 GUT predicts existence of iso-singlet quarks and iso-doublet leptons. Vector-like quarks (VLQ) are extensively searched by…
We calculate the total cross sections and probabilities of electromagnetic productions of electron, muon and tauon pair productions simultaneously. At the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the available electromagnetic energy is sufficient to…
We point out that events with 6 or more top quarks may be observed at the LHC if certain particles exist at the TeV scale. In a model where a vectorlike quark of charge 2/3 decays into a top quark and a pseudoscalar particle, which…
We study the production of doubly charged excited leptons at the LHC. These exotic states are predicted in extended weak isospin composite models. A recent analysis of such exotic states was based on a pure gauge model with magnetic type…
A search for new particles has been conducted using events with two high transverse momentum $\tau$ leptons that decay hadronically and at least two energetic jets. The analysis is performed using data from proton-proton collisions at…
The observation of the production of four top quarks in proton-proton collisions is reported, based on a data sample collected by the CMS experiment at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV in 2016-2018 at the CERN LHC and corresponding to an…
We use aMC@NLO to study the production of four charged leptons at the LHC, performing parton showers with both HERWIG and Pythia6. Our underlying matrix element calculation features the full next-to-leading order $O(\alpha_S)$ result and…
We evaluate the sensitivity of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to charged heavy vector boson production followed by their decays to $W^\pm Z^0$. We include the correlated decays of the gauge bosons to leptonic final states. With an…
Using a bottom up phenomenological approach we constructed a simple doubly charged vector lepton $E^{\pm\pm}$ model for the possible 750 GeV diphoton resonance $\Phi$ at the LHC assuming it to be a scalar particle. Since no stable doubly…
A sequential fourth generation of quarks and leptons is allowed by precision electroweak constraints if the mass splitting between the heavy quarks is between 50 and 80 GeV. Although heavy quarks can be easily detected at the LHC, it is…
The Large Hadron Collider will restart with higher energy and luminosity in 2015. This achievement opens the possibility of discovering new phenomena hardly described by the Standard Model, that is based on two neutral gauge bosons: the…
We analyze the potential of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to search for excited spin-1/2 electrons and neutrinos. Assuming a SU(2)_L X U(1)_Y invariant model, we study in detail the single production of excited electrons and…
The ATLAS detector data on di-lepton production is used in order to impose constraints on $Z^\prime$ boson masses associated with a variety of 3-3-1 and $E_6$ motivated $Z'$ models. Lower mass bounds for the different models are established…
We investigate production and detection prospects of the quintuplet heavy leptons at the LHC in the context of a new model which is proposed as a viable and testable solution to the neutrino masses problem. We classify the signals, carry…
We investigate the pair production of charged heavy leptons via photon-induced processes at the proposed CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Using effective photon and Z approximations, rates are given for $L^+L^-$ production due to $\gamma…
Many Standard Model extensions predict doubly-charged scalars; in particular, all models with resonances in charged lepton-pair channels with non-vanishing lepton number; if these are pair produced at the LHC, the observation of their decay…
Exclusive photoproduction of dileptons, gamma p ->l+ l- p, will be measured in ultraperipheral collisions at LHC. The mechanism where the lepton pair comes from a heavy timelike photon radiated from a quark interferes with the pure QED…
We investigate the potentialities offered by the study of lepton-pair production in ultraperipheral collisions at a fixed-target experiment using the proton and ion LHC beams. In these collisions, exclusive or semi-exclusive lepton-pair…
In this work we present an analysis of production and signature of charged Higgs bosons $H_2^{\pm}$ in the version of the 3-3-1 model containing heavy leptons at the CLIC (Cern Linear Collider). The production rate is found to be…
An analysis is presented of events containing jets including at least one $b$-tagged jet, sizable missing transverse momentum, and at least two charged leptons including a pair of the same electric charge, with the scalar sum of the jet and…
