The Higgs mechanism is the favourite cure for the main problem with electroweak unification, namely how to reconcile a gauge theory with the need for massive gauge bosons. This problem does not exist in preon models for quark and lepton…
We perform a study of the charged Higgs production from an $SU(3)_{C}\otimes SU(3)_{L}\otimes U(1)_{X}$ model with right-handed neutrinos, postulating a custodial symmetry which reduces the number of free parameters in the scalar potential.…
We discuss an alternative implementation of the Higgs boson within the Standard Model which is possible if the renormalizability condition is relaxed. Namely, at energy scale $\Lambda$ the Higgs boson interacts at tree-level only with…
In the unified subquark model of all fundamental particles and forces, the mass of the Higgs boson in the standard model of electroweak interactions ($m_H$) is predicted to be about $2\sqrt{6}m_W/3$ (where $m_W$ is the mass of the charged…
In absence of the Standard Model Higgs boson the interaction among the gauge bosons becomes strong at high energies and influences the couplings between them. Each trilinear and quartic gauge boson vertex is characterised by a set of…
Supersymmetric extensions of the standard model lead us to expect superpartners for all particles, spin-0 squarks and sleptons and spin-1/2 gluinos, charginos and neutralinos, with an odd R-parity making the lightest one stable. The…
The status of several precisely measured electroweak parameters is reviewed. Natural relations among them are shown to constrain the Higgs mass, m_H, as well as various ``New Physics'' effects. Indications of an anomalous Zb anti-b coupling…
We obtain bounds for the mass of the extra neutral gauge boson, ${Z^\prime}$, predicted by two versions of ${SU (3)_C \times SU (3)_L \times U (1)_X}$ model, namely one corresponding to its minimal version and another where the neutrinos…
The ununified standard model is an extension of the standard model that contains separate electroweak gauge groups for quarks and leptons. When it was originally proposed, data allowed the new gauge bosons to be quite light. We use recent…
A search for the lightest neutral scalar and neutral pseudoscalar Higgs bosons in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model is performed using 176.4 pb^-1 of integrated luminosity collected by L3 at a center-of-mass energy of 189 GeV. No…
In this article, we review gauge-Higgs unification models based on gauge theories defined on six-dimensional spacetime with $S^2/Z_2$ topology in the extra spatial dimensions. On the extra $S^2/Z_2$ space, non-trivial boundary conditions…
We build a supersymmetric version of a recently proposed SU(3)xSU(3)xU(1)X model with heavy charged lepton and no bilepton gauge bosons.The model is an anomaly free, three generation extension of the Standard model with SU(3)L x U(1)gauge…
In this paper we assume the Higgs is an elementary scalar, and study how new physics could affect its couplings to electroweak gauge bosons. Adding LHC data to LEP data provides new, more stringent limits, particularly when the Higgs to two…
We show that in a large class of supersymmetric $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R\times SU(4)_c$ models with the see-saw mechanism for neutrino masses and an R-parity conserving vacuum, there are diquark Higgs bosons with masses ($M_{qq}$) near the…
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 detailed analysis of a class of extensions to the SM Gauge chiral symmetry $SU(3)_{C}\times SU(3)_{L}\times U(1)_{X}$ (331 model), where the neutrino electroweak interaction with matter via charged and neutral current is…
We perform a comprehensive study of the Higgs sector of the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model in the case where all Higgs bosons are rather light, with masses of ${\cal O}(100 GeV)$, and couple maximally to electroweak…
In the E6 inspired composite Higgs model (E6CHM) the strongly interacting sector possesses an SU(6)\times U(1)_B\times U(1)_L global symmetry. Near scale f\gtrsim 10 TeV the SU(6) symmetry is broken down to its SU(5) subgroup, that involves…
We examine the current lower bound on the charged Higgs boson mass in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. By applying direct search constraints on the neutral Higgs bosons and other supersymmetric states, as well as a number of…
The low energy structures of N=1 supersymmetric models with E_6, F_4 and E_7 gauge groups and fundamental irrep matter contents are studied herein. We identify sets of gauge invariant composites which label all flat directions in the…
