A new particle with proprieties similar to those of the Higgs boson in the Standard Model (SM) has been recently discovered. The biggest discrepancy is related to its diphoton decay, whose branching ratio seems to be around two times larger…
We discuss exclusive central production of Higgs boson, quark-antiquark and digluon dijets. Some differential distributions are shown and disussed. Irreducible leading-order $b \bar b $ background to Higgs production is calculated. The…
The gamma-ray bursts detected by the BATSE instrument may be separated into "short", "intermediate" and "long" subgroups. Previous statistical tests found an anisotropic sky-distribution on large angular scales for the intermediate…
We show that an angular analysis of B -> V1 V2 decays yields numerous tests for new physics in the decay amplitudes. Many of these new-physics observables are nonzero even if the strong phase differences vanish. For certain observables,…
We analyze the possibility of probing anomalous Higgs couplings in the rare decays $H \to Z V$, $V$ being a vector quarkonium state. These rare decays involve both gauge as well as the Yukawa sectors and either of them can potentially be…
Wigner distributions for quantum mechanical systems whose configuration space is a finite group of odd order are defined so that they correctly reproduce the marginals and have desirable transformation properties under left and right…
A study of searching for doubly charged Higgs $(\delta^{\pm \pm})$ is performed in two-Higgs-doublet extension of the conventional type-II seesaw model. We find that a fantastic mixing effect between singly charged Higgs of Higgs doublet…
Single top quark production through weak interactions is considered to be an important source of charged Higgs in the Minimal Super Symmetric Standard Model. In the s-channel single top production having largest cross-section may appear as…
The substructure of charged jets gets modified due to the presence of the medium in heavy-ion collisions which is an indication of redistribution of energy inside the jet cone. It helps to understand the energy loss mechanisms of jets in…
We show how the inclusive $t\bar t$ production in $e^+e^-$, gluon~gluon and photon~photon collisions could reveal the presence of new (visible or invisible) particles connected to the Higgs sector and/or to the top quark.
An analysis of the angular distribution of the decay $\Lambda_b^0 \rightarrow \Lambda \mu^{+} \mu^{-}$ is presented, using data collected with the LHCb detector between 2011 and 2016 and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of…
A search for exotic decays of the Higgs boson to a pair of light pseudoscalar particles a$_1$ is performed under the hypothesis that one of the pseudoscalars decays to a pair of opposite sign muons and the other decays to…
We study the tagging of Higgs exotic decay signals using different types of deep neural networks (DNNs), focusing on the $W^\pm h$ associated production channel followed by Higgs decaying into $n$ $b$-quarks with $n=4$, 6 and 8. All the…
We discuss the feasibility of seeing a Higgs boson which decays to four partons through a pair of (pseudo-)scalars at the LHC. We restrict our search to Higgs bosons produced in association with a W/Z boson at high transverse momentum. We…
We present a calculation of the thrust distribution in Higgs decays to quarks and gluons, $H\to b\bar{b}$, $H\to c\bar{c}$, and $H\to gg$, including the resummation of large logarithmic corrections that arise in the two-particle limit at…
We study the decay $B^\pm\to \phi K^{\ast\pm}$, followed by the decay of the outgoing vector mesons into two pseudoscalars. The analysis of angular distributions of the decay products is shown to provide useful information about the…
A gamma line signal in cosmic-ray observation would be found when Higgs is produced at rest or almost rest by DM annihilation because of decay of 126 GeV Higgs into two gamma. This line signal gives a constraint on Higgs production cross…
We consider the resummation of large logarithmic corrections arising in the two-particle limit at next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic (NNLL) accuracy for the heavy-jet mass and $C$-parameter distributions in the decay of a Higgs boson to…
A formulation of anomalies in terms of star products is suggested which promises insight from an alternative and unifying point of view.
Searches for rare and exotic Higgs decays using proton-proton collision data with the center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV and 13 TeV collected with the ATLAS detector are presented. Various final states are considered. No significant deviations…
