We present an analysis of new physics searches in $Z\,h$ with missing energy final states at the Large Hadron Collider considering $Z \to l^+ l^-$ (where $l^\pm = e^\pm, \mu^\pm$) and $h \to b\bar b$ decay modes. For this analysis we…
We study the sources of systematic errors in the measurement of the Z to ll cross-sections at the LHC. We consider the systematic errors in both the total cross-section and acceptance for anticipated experimental cuts. We include the best…
Cascade decays of new scalars into final states with multiple photons and possibly quarks may lead to distinctive experimental signatures at high-energy colliders. Such signals are even more striking if the scalars are highly boosted, as…

We demonstrate that a measurement of the Bjorken process $e^+e^-, \mu^+\mu^-\to ZH$ in the threshold region can yield a precise determination of the Higgs boson mass. With an integrated luminosity of $100 fb^{-1}$, it is possible to measure…

The precise measurement of the Higgs mass is the most important program at International Linear Collider (ILC). Using e+e- -> ZH process, the mass of Higgs boson can be measured by two lepton tracks from decay of Z boson, even if the Higgs…
Photon-photon interactions represent an important class of physics processes at the LHC, where quasi-real photons are emitted by both colliding protons. These reactions can result in the exclusive production of a final state $X$, $p+p…
