We investigate anomalous charged triple gauge boson couplings induced by $SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y$ gauge-invariant dimension-6 operators in the HISZ basis through the processes $e^-e^+ \to 4j$ and $e^-e^+ \to \ell^-\ell^+ + \text{missing…
With center of mass energies up to 209 GeV of LEP II, massive W and Z bosons can be produced in pairs and jointly with photons. This allows to study boson-boson couplings. Since the W and Z bosons are unstable and decay into fermions, two-…
We investigate the possibility that an imaginary anomalous $tbW$ coupling can be measured in the process $e^-p \to \nu_e \overline t X$ by means of T-odd observables. One such observable considered here is the polarization of the top…
We examine the sensitivity of the process e+e- -> nu nubar gamma to extra gauge bosons, Z' and W', which arise in various extensions of the standard model. The process is found to be sensitive to W' masses up to several TeV, depending on…
We present a search for anomalous components of the quartic gauge boson coupling WW{\gamma}{\gamma} in events with an electron, a positron and missing transverse energy. The analyzed data correspond to 9.7 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity…
Many models beyond the Standard Electroweak Theory, top-down or bottom-up, contain extensions of the gauge symmetry group by extra U(1)' factors which can be understood or treated as subgroups of E(6). A brief overview of such models is…
We analyze constraints on the anomalous $Wtb$ couplings from $B$-physics experiments, performing a correlated analysis and allowing all anomalous couplings to differ simultaneously from their Standard-Model (SM) values. The $B$-physics…
Non-Abelian structure of the Standard Model predicts the self-interactions of gauge bosons triple gauge couplings (TGC) and quartic gauge couplings (QGC). On the other hand, it is also important to determine the deviations from Standard…
We present the sensitivity limits on the coefficients of a dimension-6 effective operators that parametrizes the possible effects of new physics beyond the Standard Model. Our results are based on the study of the processes $e^+ e^- \to W^+…
A direct investigation of the self-couplings of gauge bosons, completely described by the non-Abelian gauge symmetry of the Standard Model, is extremely valuable in understanding the gauge structure of the SM. Any deviation from the SM…
Anomalous quartic couplings between the electroweak gauge bosons may contribute to the vv gamma gamma and qq gamma gamma final states produced in e+e- collisions. This analysis uses the LEP2 OPAL data sample at centre-of-mass energies up to…
The triple gauge couplings are completely defined by the non-Abelian gauge nature of the Standard Model, precision measurements of these couplings at the present and future colliders in this way provide a substantial opportunity to test the…
We estimate model-independent bounds that could be obtained on the anomalous $ZZH$ vertex using polarization parameters of the $Z$ boson produced in the Higgstrahlung process at the LHC. We calculate the eight independent polarization…
The cross section of the process e^+ e^- -> Z \gamma\gamma -> qq \gamma \gamma is measured with 215 pb^-1 of data collected with the L3 detector during the final LEP run at centre-of-mass energies around 205 GeV and 207 GeV. No deviation…
We show that the availability of longitudinally polarized electron beams at a 500 GeV Linear Collider would allow, from an analysis of the reaction e^+e^-\to W^+W^-, to set stringent bounds on the couplings of a Z' of the most general type.…

We examine anomalous ZZH and gammaZH interactions in the process e+e- -> HZ followed by Z -> l+l- at a linear collider. We study the effects of beam polarization, both longitudinal and transverse, in probing these anomalous couplings. We…
We study the incidence of genuine quartic vector boson couplings in the reactions e-e- -> e-e-ZZ, e-\nu ZW, \nu\nu WW. We find that a linear collider operated in the e-e- mode will provide bounds on these couplings which are competitive…
