Current LHC results indicate a possible enhancement in the production of Higgs bosons in association with top quarks (tth) over the Standard Model (SM) expectations, suggesting an increase in the top Yukawa coupling. To explain these…
Measuring the Higgs couplings accurately at colliders is one of the best routes for finding physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM). If the measured couplings deviate from the SM predictions, then this would give rise to energy-growing…
In the framework of the little higgs scenario, coupling constants of several interactions are related to each other to guarantee the stability of the higgs boson mass at one-loop level. This relation is called the little higgs mechanism. We…
We study possible strong first-order electroweak phase transitions in Composite Higgs models and we quantify the part of parameter space that can be probed with future gravitational Wave experiments. We focus on models where the Composite…
We re-examine our former predictions \cite{kahanath1,kahanath2} of the top and Higgs masses via dynamical symmetry breaking in a 4-fermion theory which produces the Higgs as a bound state, and relates the top and Higgs masses to $m_W$. The…
We discuss the quark masses in a top condensate model where not only two quark but also four quark composite states may exist. We show that the presence of the top color group SU(3)_1\times SU(3)_2 with the correct non anomalous quark…
We study more deeply the sensitivity of the $ZH$ production process in gluon-gluon collisions to the details of a possible Higgs and top quark compositeness. We establish a relation between Higgs and top quark form factors which would keep…
Partial top quark compositeness is a crucial aspect of theories with strong electroweak symmetry breaking. Together with the heavy top partners that lift the top quark mass to its observed value, these theories predict correlated…
Due to the presence of extra top quark T in the little Higgs models, the $CKM$ matrix is not unitary and the flavor changing neutral currents may exist at the tree level. In the context of the Littlest Higgs(LH) model, we discuss the…
The large top Yukawa coupling results in the top quark contributing significantly to the quantum correction of the Higgs mass term. Traditionally, this effect is canceled by the presence of top partners in symmetry-based models. However,…
The phenomenology entailed by a scalar resonance in a top partner model is analysed here in a $SO(5)$ Composite Higgs formalism. Heavy scalar resonances production and their decays modes are explored along a benchmark resonance mass range.…
In some models of electro-weak interactions the W and Z bosons are considered composites, made up of spin-one-half subconstituents. In these models a spin zero counterpart of the W and Z boson naturally appears, whose higher mass can be…
In scenarios of strongly coupled electroweak symmetry breaking, heavy composite particles of different spin and parity may arise and cause observable effects on signals that appear at loop levels. The recently observed process of Higgs to…
As the heaviest known fundamental particle, the top quark has taken a central role in the study of fundamental interactions. Production of top quarks in pairs provides an important probe of strong interactions. The top quark mass is a key…
This paper presents a combined analysis of the potential of a future electron-positron collider to constrain the Higgs, top and electro-weak (EW) sectors of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). The leading contributions of…
In the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, one of the scalar top quarks can be relatively light and its couplings to Higgs bosons strongly enhanced. I will discuss two consequences of this feature: 1) the effects of scalar top loops on…

In Standard Model (SM) Higgs Boson pair production initiated by photons ($\gamma \gamma \to h h$) is loop-generated process and thereby very sensitive to any new couplings and particles that may come in loops. The Composite Higgs Models…
We introduce a deconstructed model that incorporates both Higgsless and top-color mechanisms. The model alleviates the typical tension in Higgsless models between obtaining the correct top quark mass and keeping delta-rho small. It does so…
