Weak corrections for top-quark pair production at hadron colliders are revisited. Predictions for collider energies of 8 TeV, adopted to the recent LHC run, and for 13 as well as 14 TeV, presumably relevant for the next round of LHC…
We explore a scenario in the Standard Model in which dimension four Yukawa couplings are either forbidden by a symmetry, or happen to be very tiny, and the Yukawa interactions are dominated by effective dimension six interactions. In this…
A search for physics beyond the standard model is performed using a sample of high-mass diphoton events produced in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = $ 13 TeV. The data sample was collected in 2016 with the CMS detector at the LHC and…
We derive constraints on the strength of a new intermediate range interaction that couples to baryon number from primordial nucleosynthesis yields. The nucleosysnthesis limits here used arise from matching observations and predictions of…

Transverse hadron spectra from proton-proton, proton-nucleus and nucleus-nucleus collisions from 2 AGeV to 21.3 ATeV are investigated within two independent transport approaches (HSD and UrQMD). For central Au+Au (Pb+Pb) collisions at…

Production of $\phi(1020), \Lambda^*(1520)$ and $\bar{K^*}(892)$ resonances at the final stage of a heavy-ion collision is considered. It is shown that original momentum distributions and abundance of resonances formed during the process of…
With an appropriate $YNN$ force, the $\Lambda$ single-particle potential ($\Lambda$ potential) can be made strongly repulsive at high density, and one can solve the hyperon puzzle of neutron stars. We investigate the consistency of such a…

In the minimal standard model it is possible to gauge any one of the following global symmetries in an anomaly free way: (i)$L_{e}-L_{\mu}$, (ii) $L_{e}-L_{\tau}$ or (iii) $L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}$. If the gauge boson corresponding to (i) or (ii)…
