The hybrid N=1/N=2 supersymmetric model predicts scalar gluons (sgluons) as SUSY partners of the Dirac gluino. Their strikingly distinct phenomenology at the CERN Large Hadron Collider is discussed.
The production at the LHC of boosted top quarks (top quarks with a transverse momentum that greatly exceeds their rest mass) is a promising process to search for phenomena beyond the Standard Model. In this contribution several examples are…
This paper presents a search for direct top squark pair production in events with missing transverse momentum plus either a pair of jets consistent with Standard Model Higgs boson decay into $b$-quarks or a same-flavour opposite-sign…
A search for new long-lived particles decaying to leptons is presented using proton-proton collisions produced by the LHC at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV. Data used for the analysis were collected by the CMS detector and correspond to an integrated…
Extending the Higgs sector by an additional $SU(2)_L$ doublet Higgs boson implies the existence of a charged Higgs boson $H^+$. The LHC experiments search for such particle focusing on it decays into leptonic and quark decay final states,…
We present search results based on next-to-leading order predictions for the pair production of color-adjoint leptons at the LHC. Quantum effects are sizable, dominated by pure QCD corrections, and sensitive to threshold effects. We…
A new particle's interactions can be measured at colliders, by observing its associated production with Standard Model particles. We focus on the case of a collider-stable right-handed top squark and study the LHC sensitivities to its…
We show that a light charged Higgs boson signal via $\tau^\pm\nu$ decay can be established at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) also in the case of single top production. This process complements searches for the same signal in the case of…
Recently there was a significant change of views on physical properties and underlying dynamics of Quark-Gluon Plasma at $T=170-350 MeV$, produced in heavy ion collisions at RHIC. Instead of weakly coupled gas of quasiparticles, it is…
In our latest paper "Search for anomalous top-gluon couplings at LHC revisited" in Eur. Phys. J. C65 (2010), 127-135 (arXiv:0910.3049 [hep-ph]), we studied possible effects of nonstandard top-gluon couplings through the chromoelectric and…
We investigate the contribution of technicolor mechanisms to the production of single top quarks at hadron colliders. Technipions with mass larger than the top mass will decay predominantly to a top quark plus a bottom antiquark. We…

Top quark pair decay events resulting in final states containing {\tau} leptons present interesting channels in the search for physics beyond the Standard Model. This document describes the in-progress analyses of two channels, {\tau}+jets…
A search for groups of collimated muons is performed using a data sample collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV, and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35 inverse picobarns. The analysis…
Many new physics models contain a neutral scalar resonance that can be predominantly produced via gluon fusion through loops. In such a case, there could be important effects of additional particles, that in turn may hadronize before…
This paper presents a search for top-squark pair production in final states with a top quark, a charm quark and missing transverse momentum. The data were collected with the ATLAS detector during LHC Run 2 and corresponds to an integrated…
Strong dynamics for composite Higgs models predict spin-1 resonances which are expected to be in the same mass range as the usually considered top-partners. We study here QCD-coloured vector and axial-vector states stemming from composite…
Composite states of electrically charged and QCD-colored hyperquarks (HQs) in a confining SU(N_HC) hypercolor gauge sector are a plausible extension of the standard model at the TeV scale, and have been widely considered as an explanation…
Measurements of the top quark production cross section in proton-proton collisions with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider are presented. The measurements require no, one or two electrons or muons in the final state (single…
In the forthcoming high-luminosity phase at the LHC many of the most interesting measurements for precision QCD studies are hampered by conditions of large pile-up, particularly at not very high transverse momenta. We study observables…
