We study the production of a top-quark pair in association with one and two vector bosons, $t \bar t V$ and $t \bar t VV$ with $V=\gamma, Z, W^\pm$, at the LHC. We provide predictions at next-to-leading order in QCD for total cross sections…

We study the production of $t{\bar t}h$ and $t{\bar t}hh$ at hadron colliders, in the minimal Composite Higgs Models, based on the coset $SO(5)/SO(4)$. We explore the fermionic representations ${\bf 5}$ and ${\bf 14}$. A detailed…

Quantum entanglement is one of significant physics phenomena that can be examined at a particle collider. A muon collider can provide a stage on which we can study substantial physics phenomenon, starting from the precision measurements of…
The top quark decays before it hadronises. Before its spin state can be changed in a process of strong interaction, it is directly transferred to the top quark decay products. The top quark spin can be deduced by studying angular…
Results are presented from a search for the pair-production of heavy quarks, Q Q-bar, that decay exclusively into a top quark and a W or Z boson. The search is performed using a sample of proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV…
The newest results from the ATLAS Collaboration for the production of a top-quark pair in association with a $Z$ or $W$ boson, and for the production of four top quarks, are summarised in these proceedings. The measurements were performed…
The weak decay of a polarized top quark has a rich structure of angular correlations among its decay products. We describe some of the noteworthy features of such decays. We then examine the three modes of single top production, with an…
We demonstrate that the LHC will be sensitive to quantum correlations between two quarks inside the proton. Same-sign W-boson pair production is the most promising channel for clear measurements of double parton scattering. The left-handed…
