In the context of $SU(2)_L\times U(1)$ dimension six operators we study the potential of the LHeC to provide information on top quark effective interactions. We focus on single antitop production and how it is affected not only by the…
Vectorial partners of the Standard Model quarks and leptons are predicted in many dynamical models of electroweak symmetry breaking. The most easily accessible of these new particles, either due to mass or couplings, are typically expected…
(Report of the Top Physics working group at the 1996 DPF/DPB Snowmass workshop, to appear in the proceedings). We discuss the study of the top quark at future experiments and machines. Top's large mass makes it a unique probe of physics at…
In this paper, we consider the electroweak production cross-section of a single anti-top-quark, a neutrino and a photon via charged current through the $e^-p \to e^-\bar b \to \bar t \nu_e \gamma \to \bar t(\to W^- \to (qq', l^-…
The Standard Model (SM) with a light Higgs boson provides a very good description of the precision electroweak observable data coming from the LEP, SLD and Tevatron experiments. Most of the observables, with the notable exception of the…
The magnetic moment ($a_\gamma$) and weak magnetic moment ($a_W$) of charged leptons and quarks are sensitive to quantum effects of new physics heavy resonances. In effective field theory $a_\gamma$ and $a_W$ are induced by two independent…

We present a discussion of model-independent contributions to the EDM of the electron. We focus on those contributions that emerge from a heavy scalar sector that is linearly realized. In particular, we explore the decoupling limit of the…
Hard processes at the TeV scale exhibit enhanced (double log) EW corrections even for inclusive observables, leading to violation of the Bloch-Nordsieck theorem. This effect, previously related to the non abelian nature of free EW charges…
