Theories of scalars and gravity, with non-minimal interactions, $\sim (M_P^2 +F(\phi) )R +L(\phi)$, have graviton exchange induced contact terms. These terms arise in single particle reducible diagrams with vertices $\propto q^2$ that…
We examine the sensitivity of $e \gamma$ colliders (based on $e^+ e^-$ linear colliders of c.m. energy 500 GeV) to the anomalous couplings of the Higgs to W-bosons via the process $e^- \gamma \longrightarrow \nu W H$. This has the advantage…
Extra spatial dimensions are proposed by recent theories that postulate the scale of gravity to be of the same order as the electroweak scale. A sizeable interaction between gravitons and Standard Model particles is then predicted. Effects…
