A search for pseudoscalar or scalar bosons decaying to a top quark pair ($\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$) in final states with one or two charged leptons is presented. The analyzed proton-proton collision data was recorded at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV by the…
We study 2-flavor Hamiltonian lattice QCD in (1+1)D with hardcore gluons, at zero and finite density, by means of matrix product states. We introduce a formulation of the theory where gauge redundancy is absent and construct a gauge…
The interactions between two octet baryons are studied at low energies using lattice QCD (LQCD) with larger-than-physical quark masses corresponding to a pion mass of $m_{\pi}\sim 450$ MeV and a kaon mass of $m_{K}\sim 596$ MeV. The…
We review, in the first part of this work, many pioneering works on supersymmetry and organize these results to show how supersymmetric quantum field theories arise from spin-statistics, N{\oe}ther and a series of no-go theorems. We then…
We derive Feynman rules for the interactions of a single gravitino with (s)quarks and gluons/gluinos from an effective supergravity Lagrangian in non-derivative form and use them to calculate the hadroproduction cross sections and decay…

We present a summary of work done on dense hadronic matter, based on the Skyrme model, which provides a unified approach to high density, valid in the large $N_c$ limit. In our picture, dense hadronic matter is described by the {\em…

In some supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model fairly light superpartner of t-quark is predicted, which may form bound states ({\it stoponiums}) under certain conditions. We study prospects of search for stoponium at the future…

The possible existence of a light CP-odd Higgs state in many new-physics models could lead to observable effects in the bottomonium sector. Experimental bounds on radiative $\Upsilon$ decays through such a pseudoscalar state and possible…
We consider the implications of an ultra-light fermionic dark matter candidate that carries baryon number. This naturally arises if dark matter has a small charge under standard model baryon number whilst having an asymmetry equal and…
