The hierarchy problem and the electroweak data, together, provide a plausible motivation for considering a light Higgs emerging as a pseudo-Goldstone boson from a strongly-coupled sector. In that scenario, the rates for Higgs production and…

Polarization and spin correlations have been explored very little for quarks other than the top. Utilizing the partial preservation of the quark's spin information in baryons in the jet produced by the quark, we examine possible analysis…

We demonstrate that not only the production of virtual photons decaying into low-mass lepton pairs, but also the one of weak bosons at large transverse momenta is dominated by quark-gluon scattering. Measurements of these processes at the…
The production of a top-antitop quark pair in association with a $W$ boson ($t\bar tW$) is one of the heaviest signatures currently probed at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Since the first observation reported in 2015 the corresponding…
The associated production of Higgs and $W$ bosons via vector-boson fusion (VBF) is highly sensitive to the relative sign of the Higgs boson couplings to $W$ and $Z$ bosons. In this Letter, two searches for this process are presented, using…
Associated production of a Higgs boson with a heavy, i.e. top or bottom, quark-anti-quark pair provide observation channels for Higgs bosons at the LHC which can be used to measure the respective Yukawa couplings. For the light…
