Two Higgs doublet extensions of the standard model, such as supersymmetry, predict the existence of charged Higgs bosons. We explore the reach for TeV-scale charged Higgs bosons through their associated production with top quarks, and their…
Evidence for the decays $B^{0}\rightarrow\bar{D}^{0}\phi$ and $B^{0} \rightarrow \bar{D}^{*0}\phi$ is reported with a significance of 3.6$\,\sigma$ and 4.3$\,\sigma$, respectively. The analysis employs $pp$ collision data at centre-of-mass…
In the type-I two-Higgs-doublet model, existing theoretical and experimental constraints still permit the light charged Higgs boson with a mass below the top quark mass. We present a complete roadmap for the light charged Higgs boson at the…

A study of searching for doubly charged Higgs $(\delta^{\pm\pm})$ is performed in two-Higgs-doublet extension of the type-II seesaw model. We find that a significant mixing effect between singly charged Higgs of Higgs doublet and of triplet…

We study the Higgs-boson decays h0 -> b \bar{b}, h0 -> \gamma \gamma and h0 -> \gamma Z within the framework of the Two Higgs Doublet Model (THDM) in the context of the decoupling regime, together with tree level unitarity constraints. We…
Searches for the neutral Higgs bosons h0 and A0, are used to obtain limits on the Type II Two Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM(II)) with no CP-violation in the Higgs sector and no additional particles besides the five Higgs bosons. The analysis…
We discuss discovery potentials for a 140 GeV Standard Model Higgs boson produced in e+e- collisions at 360 GeV, including all potential irreducible and reducible background contributions. In the second part of the study, we estimate the…
An analysis of the Higgs boson decay rates to $\gamma\gamma$ and $Z\gamma$ in the Inert Doublet Model is presented. We study the correlation between the two rates and perform extended analysis of the two-photon rate ($R_{\gamma\gamma}$). We…
The rare decays $B_{(s,d)}^*\to l^+ l^-$ are important to probe the flavour sector of the standard model and to search new physics beyond the SM. Unlike pseudoscalar B meson, the leptonic decays of vector $ B_(s,d)^*$ mesons are not…
We evaluate the prospects for detecting a non-standard light Higgs boson with a significant branching ratio to two photons, in Run II of the Fermilab Tevatron. We derive the reach for several channels: $2\gamma$ inclusive, $2\gamma+1$ jet…
We examine, in a number of Standard Model extensions, whether the decays $A \to WW/ZZ$ of a neutral pseudoscalar (Higgs) resonance can have branching ratios at the percent level and we determine the possible size of $B(A \to WW/ZZ)$…
The vector-like quark model is one of the extensions of the standard model (SM) of particle physics. The simplest version of this model introduces a vector-like singlet quark which can mix with SM quarks and give rise to new contributions…
