Higgs pair production through gluon fusion is an important process at the LHC to test the dynamics underlying electroweak symmetry breaking. Higgs sectors beyond the Standard Model (SM) can substantially modify this cross section through…
We explore connections between high energy QCD spin physics and $CP$-odd scalar gluonic operators $\tilde{F}^{\mu\nu}F_{\mu\nu}$ and $\tilde{F}_{\mu\nu}F^{\mu\alpha}F^{\nu}_{\alpha}$, the latter being called the Weinberg operator in the…
We calculate the contribution of anomalous top-quark interaction with a gluon, photon, and $Z$-boson (FCNC) to $t \bar t$ pair production in hadronic collisions. Using the current data from Run~1 of the Tevatron we evaluate the upper limit…

The bounds on the neutron electric dipole moment and T-odd nucleon-nucleon interaction are used to extract the limits on the effective CP-odd four-fermion operators containing strange quark field. This completes the study of the dim=5,6…
We study the effects of dimension-six operators contributing to the $gt\bar t$ vertex in top quark pair production at the Tevatron collider. We derive both the limits from Run 1 data and the potential bounds from future runs (Run 2 and 3).…
We study top-antitop pair production in proton-proton collisions within the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) at dimension 6. We focus on the top chromomagnetic operator $C_{tG}$ together with the four-quark operators relevant…
We examine the charged lepton flavor violating process $gg \rightarrow \mu^\pm \tau^\mp$ at the $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV LHC. Operators generating this process can be induced by new physics (NP) at dimension 8. Despite the power suppression…
We identify the differential cross sections for $t\bar t$ production and the total cross section for Higgs production through gluon fusion as the processes in which the two effective operators describing the leading non-standard…
I present approximate N$^3$LO theoretical results for top-antitop pair production, and for single-top production in association with a $W$ boson. The higher-order corrections are from soft-gluon radiation, which is dominant near partonic…
Top quarks produced in multi-TeV processes will have large Lorentz boosts, and their decay products will be highly collimated. In semileptonic decay modes, this often leads to the merging of the b-jet and the hard lepton according to…
We study the sensitivity to the shape of the Higgs potential of single, double, and triple Higgs production at future $e^+e^-$ colliders. Physics beyond the Standard Model is parameterised through the inclusion of higher-dimensional…
