We derive exact expressions for luminosities of massive vector-boson pairs which can be used to describe the cross sections for processes in hadron collisions or $e^+e^-$ annihilation which proceed via two-vector-boson scattering. Our…
Quasi-elastic scattering of the vector bosons W and Z is a sensitive probe of the details of electroweak symmetry breaking, and a key process at future lepton colliders. We discuss the limitations of a model-independent effective-theory…
We report on a dispersion relation formalism for the virtual Compton scattering (VCS) reaction on the proton, which for the first time allows a dispersive evaluation of 4 generalized polarizabilities. The dispersion formalism provides a new…
Vector boson scattering is a well known probe of electroweak symmetry breaking. Here we study a related process of two electroweak vector bosons scattering into a vector boson and a Higgs boson ($VV \rightarrow Vh, V=W,Z$). This process…
The high-energy behavior of vector-boson scattering amplitudes is examined within an effective theory for non-standard self-interactions of electroweak vector-bosons. Irrespectively of whether this theory is brought into a gauge invariant…
In the absence of a light Higgs boson, the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking will be best studied in processes of vector boson scattering at high mass. Various models predict resonances in this channel. Scalar and vector resonances…

We propose a novel experimental method to produce and detect weakly interacting light vector bosons using coherent processes in refractive media. A light vector boson would be produced by a laser photon scattered at a plane interface…

Virtual Compton Scattering (VCS) at low transferred momenta to the proton ($t$) and sufficiently high c.m. energies ($s$) may be used to a) study $Q^2$--dependence of leading $t$--channel exchanges and b) look for onset of scaling behavior…
We study scattering of the electroweak gauge bosons in 5D warped models. Within two different models we determine the precise manner in which the Higgs boson and the vector resonances ensure the unitarity of longitudinal vector boson…
