The Littlest Higgs Model with T-parity is one of the attractive candidates of physics beyond the Standard Model. One of the important predictions of the model is the existence of new heavy gauge bosons, where they acquire mass terms through…
New spin-1 particles with masses below the weak scale are present in many theories of beyond Standard Model (SM) physics. In this work, we extend previous analyses by systematically considering the couplings of such a vector to the bosonic…

Anomaly free $U(1)$ extensions of the standard model (SM) predict a new neutral gauge boson $Z'$. When the $Z'$ obtains its mass from the spontaneous breaking of the new $U(1)$ symmetry by a new complex scalar field, the model also predicts…

Kinematic distributions in the decays of the newly discovered resonance to four leptons can provide a direct measurement of the tensor structure of the particle's couplings to gauge bosons. Even if the particle is shown to be a parity even…
We perform a complete simulation of the process $ e^+ e^- \to \tau^+ \tau^- \nu \bar{\nu}$, where $\nu$ can be an electron, muon or tau neutrino, in the context of a general Higgs coupling to $\tau$ leptons. We analyse various kinematical…

LEP precision on electroweak measurements was sufficient not to hamper the extraction of Higgs couplings at the LHC. But the foreseen permille-level Higgs measurements at future lepton colliders might suffer from parametric electroweak…
