Vector-like quarks~(VLQs) are a common feature of many scenarios of new physics beyond the Standard Model~(SM), which generally decay into a SM third-generation quark with a SM gauge boson, or a Higgs boson. The presence of a new exotic…
We investigate the electroweak process $qq\to qqW$, {\it i.e.} $W$ production via $W\gamma$ and $WZ$ fusion, as a probe for nonstandard $WW\gamma$ and $WWZ$ vertices at hadron supercolliders. Triggering on events with one very forward and…
The production of a single top quark in association with a $\mathrm{Z}$ boson ($\mathrm{t}\mathrm{Z}\mathrm{j}$ production) at the LHC is a relevant probe of the electroweak sector of the Standard Model as well as a window to possible…

The quartic gauge coupling (QGC) of the electroweak interaction can be used as a probe for physics beyond the Standard Model and has been previously measured at the Large Hadron Collider. However, to achieve sensitivity to small deviations…
A search for vectorlike quarks is presented, which targets their decay into a $Z$ boson and a third-generation Standard Model quark. In the case of a vectorlike quark $T$ ($B$) with charge $+2/3e$ ($-1/3e$), the decay searched for is $T…

In its second phase, LEP has allowed to study four fermion processes never observed before. Results are presented on the charged triple gauge boson couplings (TGC) from the W-pair, Single W and Single gamma production. The anomalous quartic…
Gauge anomalous quantum field theories are inconsistent as full UV theories since they lead to the breaking of Lorentz invariance or Unitarity, as well as non-renormalizability. It is well known, however, that they can be interpreted as…
We discuss the feasibility of seeing a Higgs boson which decays to four partons through a pair of (pseudo-)scalars at the LHC. We restrict our search to Higgs bosons produced in association with a W/Z boson at high transverse momentum. We…
We point out that gauge bosons emissions should be carefully estimated when considering LHC observables, since real $Ws$ and $Zs$ contributions can dramatically change cross sections with respect to tree level values. Here we consider…
We review the recent progress in studying the anomalous electroweak quartic gauge boson couplings (QGBCs) at the LHC and the next generation high energy e+-e- linear colliders (LCs). The main focus is put onto the strong electroweak…
This is a brief summary of the latest searches for virtual effects of new physics in the top sector. In the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT), I show how to resolve the structure of effective couplings by…

We study a model with a down-type SU(2) singlet vector-like quark (VLQ) as a minimal extension of the standard model (SM). In this model, flavor changing neutral currents (FCNCs) arise at tree level and the unitarity of the $3\times 3$…
