New physics coupled to the Higgs boson may hide it in the standard decay channels to be investigated at LHC. We consider the models where new invisible dominant decay modes of the Higgs boson are responsible for this hiding. We propose to…
We examine, in a number of Standard Model extensions, whether the decays $A \to WW/ZZ$ of a neutral pseudoscalar (Higgs) resonance can have branching ratios at the percent level and we determine the possible size of $B(A \to WW/ZZ)$…
The recent precision measurement of the $W$-boson mass reveals an exciting hint for the new physics as of the 3-3-1 model. We indicate that the 3-3-1 model contains distinct sources by itself that may cause the $W$-mass deviation, as…
Combining precision measurements and the Higgs boson search limit, the electroweak data has evolved to a point where new physics is favored whether the 3.2 sigma A_{FB}^b anomaly is genuine or not. Such new physics could greatly alter the…
We study the effect of a light charged Higgs appearing in supersymmetric models containing two Higgs doublets on the measurement of leptonic branching ratios of the W boson at LEP. We show that the $2.8 \sigma$ excess of the branching ratio…
A variant of the conventional Higgs model is proposed which separates the physics of the Higgs decay modes from the problem of fermion mass generation. The lowest mass Higgs boson has no significant bottom decay mode but a charm and up…
The radiative decay width of a heavy Higgs boson $H \rightarrow W^+W^-\gamma$ for a {\it hard} photon is calculated in the Standard Model and its extension with anomalous $\gamma WW$ couplings. Its dependence on the Higgs mass, the two…
The CDF collaboration recently reported a measurement of the $W$-bosos mass, $M_W$, showing a large positive deviation from the Standard Model (SM) prediction. The question arises whether extensions of the SM exist that can accommodate such…
Both Atlas and CMS have reported a discovery of a Standard Model-like Higgs boson $H$ of mass around 125 GeV. Consistency with the Standard Model implies the non-observation of non-SM like decay modes of the newly discovered particle.…
A vector-like colorless fermion doublet and a singlet added to the Standard Model allow a consistent interpretation of dark matter in terms of the lightest neutral particle, as they may help in obtaining successful gauge coupling…
High precision measurements of electroweak observables at $e^\pm$ colliders indicate the existence of a light Higgs boson below the $W^\pm$ threshold. If such a fundamental scalar should be found in the near future it is important to fully…
The implications for Higgs decays of potential new physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM) are considered in the context of effective field theory, assuming perturbative decoupling. Using existing data to restrict which dimension-six…
It is expected that hadron collider measurements of the Higgs boson mass using the decay h -> W^+W^-, followed by the leptonic decay of each W-boson, will be performed by fitting the shape of a distribution which is sensitive to the Higgs…
The heavy, doublet-dominated Higgs bosons expected in Two-Higgs-Doublet-Model-like extensions of the Standard Model are obvious targets for searches at high-energy colliders, and considerable activity in this sense is currently employed in…
We show that it is possible to construct models in which the width of the Higgs boson is arbitrary - either smaller or larger than a standard model Higgs boson of the same mass. There are no new fields into which the Higgs boson decays.…
Precise measurements of the mass and width of the W boson are sensitive to radiative corrections and can be used to place limits on new physics beyond the Standard Model and validate the consistency of the model. In particular, the W boson…
The charged Higgs boson plays an essential role in distinguishing between a wide variety of standard model extensions with multiple Higgs doublets, and has been searched for in various collider experiments. This paper expands our previous…
The presence of charged Higgs bosons is a generic prediction of multiplet extensions of the Standard Model (SM) Higgs sector. Focusing on the Two-Higgs-Doublet-Model (2HDM), we discuss the charged Higgs boson collider phenomenology in the…
The CDF collaboration has recently reported an updated result on the $W$-boson mass measurement, showing a $7\sigma$ deviation from the standard model prediction. The discrepancy may indicate new contributions to the Fermi coupling…
We show that, the result recently reported by the CDF collaboration showing an excess in the invariant mass distribution of jet pairs produced in association with a W-boson can be explained by a simple extension of the Standard Model (SM)…
