Some extensions of the standard model predict the existence of particles having two units of leptonic charge, known as bileptons. One of such models is based on the $SU(3)_c\times SU(3)_L\times U(1)_X$ symmetry group (3-3-1 model, for…

We study the double-charged vector-bilepton pair production and double-charged scalar-bilepton pair production {\it via} $p + p \longrightarrow Y^{++} + Y^{--} + X$ and $p + p \longrightarrow S_1^{++} + S_1^{--} + X$, where $Y$ and $S_1$…
We show that the accumulated LEP-II data taken at $\sqrt{s} =$ 130 to 206 GeV can establish more restrictive bounds on doubly charged bileptons couplings and masses than any other experiment so far. We also analyze the discovery potential…
We discuss a minimal and simple extension of the standard electroweak model and discuss its uniqueness properties. Its most readily testable prediction is the existence of $|Q|= |L|= 2$ gauge bosons, bileptons, which decay into like-sign…

We consider pair production of bileptons $Y^{++}Y^{--}$ at the LHC for the presently accumulated integrated luminosity of $150/fm$. It is shown that the entire mass range 800 GeV $\leq$ M(Y) $\leq$ 2000 GeV can be successfully searched. A…
Given the current absence of new physics signals at the LHC, it is increasingly important to investigate alternative scenarios beyond those commonly explored. In this work, we study a variant of the 331 model that predicts the existence of…
Many theories beyond the Standard Model predict new phenomena which decay to well isolated, high-$p_{\text{T}}$ leptons. Searches for new physics with these signatures are performed using the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. The results…
