We study the process $e^+ e^- \to \gamma \gamma \nu \bar{\nu}$ in the context of a strong electroweak symmetry breaking model, which can be a source of events with two photons and missing energy at LEP2. We investigate bounds on the model…

We perform a detailed study of the process $e^+e^-\to\gamma\nu_l\bar\nu_l$ and its sensitivity to anomalous gauge boson couplings of the $\gamma WW$ vertex. We concentrate on LEP II energies, $\sqrt{s}=200$ GeV, and energies appropria- te…

High precision measurements of electroweak observables at $e^\pm$ colliders indicate the existence of a light Higgs boson below the $W^\pm$ threshold. If such a fundamental scalar should be found in the near future it is important to fully…

Standard Model fits are performed on the most recent leptonic and b quark Z decay data from LEP and SLD, and FERMILAB data on top quark production, to obtain $m_t$ and $m_H$. Poor fits are obtained, with confidence levels $\simeq$ 2%.…
The cross section of the process e+e- -> Ze+e is measured with 0.7fb^-1 of data collected with the L3 detector at LEP. Decays of the Z boson into quarks and muons are considered at centre-of-mass energies ranging from 183GeV up to 209GeV.…
Precision electroweak data allow one to test the standard model, constrain its parameters, and search for the effects of some kinds of new physics. The results of the most recent data from LEP, SLC, and elsewhere are described, as are their…
A right-handed stop not much heavier or even lighter than the Z boson has today desirable phenomenological consequences. We study how it can result within the usual radiative scenario of electroweak symmetry breaking. A restriction on the…
