We investigate the uncertainty induced by the Higgs-boson mass on the determination of $m_W$ from the LEP-2 run near the threshold for $W$-pair production. For a light Higgs boson the Yukawa interaction between the two slowly-moving $W$…
`Little Higgs' models, in which the Higgs particle arises as a pseudo-Goldstone boson, have a natural mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking associated with the large value of the top quark Yukawa coupling. The mechanism typically…
We investigate a potentially large CP violating asymmetry in the neutral Higgs boson decay into a heavy quark pair or a $W^+$--$W^-$ pair. The source of the CP nonconservation is in the Yukawa couplings of the Higgs boson which can contain…
The upper bounds from the ATLAS and CMS experiments on the decay rate of the Higgs boson to two muons provide the strongest constraint on an imaginary part of the muon Yukawa coupling. This bound is more than an order of magnitude stronger…
A non-supersymmetric renormalizable $SO(10)$ model, with CP invariant Yukawa sector consisting of Lorentz scalars in $10$ and $\overline{126}$ dimensional representations, is proposed. The elemental Yukawa couplings are real due to CP…
The $\cal{CP}$ structure of the Higgs boson is a fundamental property which has not yet been constrained with high precision. $\cal{CP}$ violation in the Yukawa coupling between the Higgs boson and top quark pair can be probed directly at…
The first observation of the $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$H process in a single Higgs boson decay channel with the full reconstruction of the final state (H$\to\gamma\gamma$) is presented, with a significance of 6.6 standard deviations ($\sigma$).…
We study a possibility of a measurement of muon Yukawa couplings in s-channel Higgs boson production at a muon collider with transversely polarized beams. We investigate sensitivity to the relative size of the CP-odd and CP-even muon Yukawa…
Current LHC results indicate a possible enhancement in the production of Higgs bosons in association with top quarks (tth) over the Standard Model (SM) expectations, suggesting an increase in the top Yukawa coupling. To explain these…
We perform an updated analysis on the searches for the anomalous FCNC Yukawa interactions between the top quark, the Higgs boson, and either an up or charm quark ($\rm tqh,\ q=u,\ c$). We probe the observability of the FCNC top-Higgs…
We consider, both for unpolarized and longitudinally polarized electron beams, the production of a top quark pair in e+e- collisions with subsequent semileptonic top and nonleptonic anti-top decay and vice versa and investigate optimized…
We consider a class of seven-dimensional N=1 supersymmetric orbifold GUTs in which the Standard Model (SM) gauge couplings and one of the Yukawa couplings (top quark, bottom quark or tau lepton) are unified, without low energy…
The question whether the Higgs boson is connected to additional CP violation is one of the driving forces behind precision studies at the Large Hadron Collider. In this work, we investigate the CP structure of the top quark Yukawa…
We study Higgs boson decays in the minimal supersymmetric standard model where the tree-level CP invariance of the Higgs potential is explicitly broken by loop effects of soft CP-violating Yukawa interactions related to scalar quarks of the…
The origin of the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the Universe is a fundamental question of physics. Electroweak baryogenesis is a compelling scenario for explaining it but it requires beyond the Standard Model sources of the CP symmetry…
We study the associated production of a charged Higgs and a W boson in high-energy pp collisions at the Large Hadron Collider. This is an interesting process for charged Higgs discovery, or exclusion, since the production cross section…
We study single-top production in association with a $W$ boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) as a probe of dimension-6 Standard Model effective field theory (SMEFT) at leading order, next-to-leading order, and approximate…
The production of the Higgs boson in association with a single top quark is sensitive to the relative sign of the coupling parameters describing its interaction with fermions and gauge bosons. The tHq production mode therefore provides an…
I discuss how modified EW interactions lead to energy growth in $2\to 2$ scattering amplitudes and how the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory can be used in conjunction with the Goldstone boson equivalence theorem to…
Observing a heavy charged Higgs boson produced in the near future at the Tevatron or at the LHC would be instant evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model. Whether such a Higgs boson would be supersymmetric or not it could only be…
