We study the sensitivity of the processes `e+ e- -> lepton (l) neutrino (v) quark (u) antiquark (d)', where the lepton is an electron or a muon, on the non-standard trilinear gauge couplings (TGC), using the optimal observables method at…
We perform a detailed study of the process $e^+e^-\to \mu^+\mu^-\nu_l\bar\nu_l$ including all contributions. The contributions other than from real gauge boson production leads to a rich phenomenology. We explore the use of the process as a…
According to many dark matter models, a potential signal registered in a detector would feature a single-scattering nuclear recoil (NR). So, it is crucial to calibrate the detector's response to NR events. The conventional calibrations…

Measurements in the highly Lorentz-boosted regime provoke increased interest in probing the Higgs boson properties and in searching for particles beyond the standard model at the LHC. In the CMS Collaboration, various boosted-object tagging…
Several current measurements of $b \rightarrow s l^+ l^-$ processes are in tension with Standard Model predictions, whereas others (e.g.\ $R_K$ and $R_{K^\ast}$) are in reasonable agreement with them. We examine some recent $Z^\prime$…
This is a short review of present and future limits on new neutral gauge bosons, in particular on hadrophilic or leptophobic $Z'$s recently proposed to interpret the observed fluctuations of $\Gamma _{c,b}$ at LEP. Light gauge bosons…

The many-parametric fit of the LEP2 data on e^+e^-\to e^+e^-, \mu^+\mu^-, \tau^+\tau^- processes is performed to estimate signals of the Abelian Z'-boson beyond the standard model. The model-independent relations between the Z' couplings to…

The precise reconstruction of the mass peak of long-lived heavy neutral leptons (HNLs) helps to improve the sensitivity for sterile neutrino searches in both fixed-target and collider environments (e.g., SHiP and the LHC). We present an…
A recent study [1] has shown that a simplified model predicting a heavy scalar of mass 270 GeV ($H$) that decays to a Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson in association with a scalar singlet of mass 150 GeV ($S$) can accommodate several…

The claim that the W boson mass might be measured at the LHC with a precision of O(10 MeV) is critically reviewed. It is argued that such a precision cannot be achieved, unless a dedicated measurement program, specific to the LHC is…
