A search has been performed for heavy resonances decaying to ZZ or ZW and for axion-like particles (ALPs) mediating nonresonant ZZ or ZH production, in final states with two charged leptons ($\ell$ = e, $\mu$) produced by the decay of a Z…
We interpret the recent excess in a rare decay of the Higgs boson, $H\to Z\gamma$, using a light axion-like particle (ALP) in the massrange $0.05 - 0.1$ GeV.The dominant decay of such a light ALP is into a pair of collimated photons, whose…
We analyze the collider signals of composite scalars that emerge in certain little Higgs models and models of vectorlike confinement. Similar to the decay of the pion into photon pairs, these scalars mainly decay through anomaly-induced…
Axion-like particles (ALPs) can decay into two photons with a rest-frame frequency given by half of the ALP mass. This implies that ultra-violet searches can be used to investigate ALPs in the multi-eV mass range. We use archival data from…
This Letter presents a search for exotic decays of the Higgs boson to a pair of new (pseudo)scalar particles, $H\to aa$, where the $a$ particle has a mass in the range 20-60 GeV, and where one of the $a$ bosons decays into a pair of photons…

We discuss the collider signals of large extra dimensions in which gravity as well as the SM particles propagate into the extra dimensions. These signals arise either from the production of Kaluza-Klein excitations of the SM particles and…
