When mu-e-gamma (or tau-mu-gamma) loop involves a vector boson, the amplitude is suppressed by more than two powers of heavy particle masses. However we show that the scalar boson loop diagrams are much less damped. Particularly, the loop…

This is a short review of present and future limits on new neutral gauge bosons, in particular on hadrophilic or leptophobic $Z'$s recently proposed to interpret the observed fluctuations of $\Gamma _{c,b}$ at LEP. Light gauge bosons…
Extending earlier investigations, we analyze the quasi-elastic scattering of strongly interacting electroweak bosons at high-energy e+-e- colliders. The three processes e+e- -> bar-nu nu W+W-, bar-nu nu ZZ, and e-e- -> W-W- are examined at…
We show that in e-e+ colliders at energies above the Z-peak, the process e-e+ to b b(bar) becomes very sensitive to the presence of residual New Physics (NP) effects described by the dim=6 SU(3)*SU(2)*U(1) gauge invariant operators O(qW),…
We perform a complete simulation of the process $ e^+ e^- \to \tau^+ \tau^- \nu \bar{\nu}$, where $\nu$ can be an electron, muon or tau neutrino, in the context of a general Higgs coupling to $\tau$ leptons. We analyse various kinematical…
We analyze the influence of anomalous gauge couplings in the reaction $e^- \: e^- \longrightarrow e^- \: W^- \: \nu_e$ at a 500 GeV linear collider. The limits imposed by this process on deviations from the standard model of electro-weak…
