We study power corrections in the Drell-Yan (DY) process using state-of-the-art predictions for both neutral and charged current production. For both types of DY processes, we account for power corrections arising from bottom and charm…
Single production of the doubly charged scalars $\Phi^{\pm\pm}$ via $e\gamma$, $ep$ and $pp$ collisions is studied in the context of the little Higgs$(LH)$ model. Our numerical results show that the new particles $\Phi^{\pm\pm}$ can be…
We study higher twist corrections to the perturbative QCD cross sections for ep deep inelastic scattering and the Drell-Yan lepton pair production in pp collision. The corrections arise due to the initial state interaction of the active…
The contribution of the sub-process $\gamma q \to q' l_1\bar{l}_2$ in hadron-hadron interactions is considered. It is a part of one-loop electroweak radiative corrections for the Drell-Yan production of lepton pairs at hadron colliders. It…
We pursue a phenomenological study of higher twist effects in high energy processes by taking into account the off-shellness (virtuality) of partons bound in the nucleon. The effect of parton off-shellness in deep inelastic ep->eX…
In this thesis, we investigate the implications of the LHC Higgs data on different BSM scenarios. Since the data seem to agree with the SM expectations, any nonstandard couplings will be strongly constrained. First we investigate, in a…
Single diffractive Drell-Yan reaction in hadron-hadron collisions is considered as an important source of information on the properties of soft QCD interactions. In particular, it provides an access to the dynamics of the QCD factorisation…
Production of a single doubly charged Higgs boson $Delta^{--}$ in polarized $e^+e^-$ and $e^+\gamma$ collision modes of the linear collider have been investigated. The mass range of $Delta^{--}$ to be probed extends up to the collision…
The production of Drell-Yan pairs in the double polarized mode of HERA-$\vec{{\rm N}}$ is studied at next-to-leading order in QCD. It is found that a measurement of this observable could yield vital information on the polarization of the…
Searches for pair-produced long-lived particles (LLPs) at the LHC commonly operate under the assumption that the two LLPs are identical. In this paper we entertain the possibility that the targeted final states are, instead, induced by a…
Using Drell-Yan pair production as an example, we explore the relation between two well-known mechanisms for single transverse-spin asymmetries in hard processes: twist-three quark-gluon correlations when the pair's transverse momentum is…
Precision cosmology provides a sensitive probe of extremely weakly coupled states due to thermal freeze-in production, with subsequent decays impacting physics during well-tested cosmological epochs. We explore the cosmological implications…
We consider the collider phenomenology of a simple extension of the Standard Model (SM), which consists of an EW isospin $3/2$ scalar, $\Delta$ and a pair of EW isospin $1$ vector like fermions, $\Sigma$ and $\bar{\Sigma}$, responsible for…
In the kinematical region where the center of mass energy is much larger than all other scales, the Drell-Yan process can be formulated in the target rest frame in terms of the same color dipole cross section as low Bjorken-x deep inelastic…
We examine current Large Hadron Collider constraints on some simple $Z'$ models that significantly improve on Standard Model fits to $b\to s\mu^+\mu^-$ transition data. The models that we consider are the 'third family baryon number minus…
We investigate the pair production of a vector-like quark triplet with hypercharge 5/3 decaying into top quark and a complex scalar triplet with hypercharge 1 at the LHC. This novel scenario, featuring particles with exotic charges - two…

We discuss production of Drell-Yan lepton pairs at hadron colliders in the framework of the parton Reggeization approach, which includes off-shell initial state effects in a gauge-invariant way. Other possible prescriptions to restore…
It is possible to place constraints on non-Standard-Model gauge-boson self-couplings and other new physics by studying their one-loop contributions to precisely measured observables. We extend previous analyses which constrain such…
