The parton densities of the proton are of fundamental importance not only for our description of hadronic and nuclear structure, but also for reliable predictions for new heavy particle searches at colliders. At the large partonic momentum…

The level of sensitivity of the processes $\gamma\gamma \to ZZ$, $\gamma\gamma \to W^+W^-$ and $\gamma\gamma \to t\bar t$ to the Higgs sector of the Standard Model Lagrangian in the energy region between 200 GeV and 1 TeV is examined. The…

We study Higgs boson production at $\mu^+ \mu^+$ colliders at high energy. Since both initial-state particles are positively charged, there is no $W$ boson fusion at the leading order, as it requires a $W^+ W^-$ pair. However, we find that…
