We study the potential to use measurements of extra neutral gauge bosons (Z') properties in pp collisions at the Large Hadron Collider to unravel the underlying physics. We focus on the usefulness of third generation final states (tau, b,…
The searches for extra-dimensions, top resonances, 4th generation quarks and leptoquark signatures are presented. The results are based on proton-proton collision data for a center-of mass energy of7 or 8 TeV, corresponding to various…
We propose novel collider searches which can significantly improve the LHC reach to new gauge bosons $Z'$ with mixed anomalies with the electroweak (EW) gauge group. Such a $Z'$ necessarily acquires a Chern-Simons coupling to the EW gauge…
We investigate the possible occurrence of extra spatial dimensions (D = 3+epsilon) in the early universe. A detailed calculation is presented which shows that the crucial signal is the apparent inequality of the cosmological Z-term between…
In this paper we examine the constraints dedicated LHC multi lepton searches can place on $Z'$ bosons coming from gauged muon number minus tau number, $L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}$. As the $L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}$ gauge boson does not couple to proton…
The main distribution for a bump search is the dilepton invariant mass distribution with appropriated cut on an absolute value of pseudorapidity difference Delta_eta = |eta_1 - eta_2| between the two leptons. The background from the…
To explain the large difference between the Planck scale and the electroweak scale, models in which gravity propagates in more than four dimensions have recently been proposed. In this paper, results from searches for extra dimensions at…
Recent searches for physics beyond the standard model at high-energy colliders are reviewed, with emphasis on supersymmetry, additional space dimensions, extra gauge bosons, leptoquarks, and model-independent searches. The results reported…
In this paper, we present a comprehensive study of the collider search limits on the charged Higgses in the four types of Two Higgs Double Models (2HDM). In addition to constraints from flavor physics measurements, we include both the LEP…
Models with 3-branes in extra dimensions typically imply the existence of a radion, phi that can mix with the Higgs, h, thereby modifying the Higgs properties and the prospects for its detectability at the LHC. The presence of the phi will…
If a new $Z'$ is discovered with a mass $\sim 1 \ TeV$ at LHC/SSC, its (rare) decays into two charged leptons plus missing transverse energy will probe the $Z'$ coupling to the lepton doublet $(\nu,e)_L$ and to $W^+W^-$, allowing further…
A possible solution to the hierarchy problem is the presence of extra spatial dimensions beyond the three ones which are known from our everyday experience. The phenomenological ADD model of large extra-dimensions predicts a missing…
Final states including leptons are most promising to detect early signs of new physics processes when the Large Hadron Collider will start proton-proton collisions at the centre of mass energy of 14\TeV. The reach for Supersymmetry and…
A search for new exotic particles decaying to the VZ final state is performed, where V is either a W or a Z boson decaying into two overlapping jets and the Z decays into a pair of electrons, muons or neutrinos. The analysis uses a data…
In models with extended scalars and CP violation, resonance searches in double Higgs final states stand in competition with related searches in top quark final states as optimal channels for the discovery of beyond the Standard Model (BSM)…
We study the effect of bulk fermions on electroweak precision observables in a recently proposed model with warped extra dimensions and no custodial symmetry. We find that the top-quark mass, together with the corrections to the Zbb vertex…
Universal extra dimensions and supersymmetry have rather similar experimental signatures at hadron colliders. The proper interpretation of an LHC discovery in either case may therefore require further data from a lepton collider. In this…
The discovery potentials of ATLAS and CMS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) for Supersimmetry (SUSY), Extra Dimensions (ED), new Gauge Bosons and R-Hadrons are discussed. Beyond Standard-Model (BSM) searches at LHC require a…
New physics models predict the possibility of extra neutral gauge bosons ($Z'$) associated with an extra $U(1)'$ gauge symmetry. We study the couplings of the Higgs boson to the $Z$ boson and $Z'$ boson predicted by the new physics models.…
