The holographic approach to double diffractive Higgs production is presented for the AdS graviton/Pomeron. The goal is to provide a predictive phenomenology for the strong coupling expansion of QCD. This is the first step to set up the…
The top asymmetries measured at the Tevatron, and the discrepancy in the di-photon Higgs rate under investigation at the LHC represent two possible hints of physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). In this paper we address the possibility to…

Single top quark production through weak interactions is considered to be an important source of charged Higgs in the Minimal Super Symmetric Standard Model. In the s-channel single top production having largest cross-section may appear as…

Production of rare particles within rapidity gaps has been proposed as a background-free signal for the detection of new physics at hadron colliders. No complete formalism accounts for such processes yet. We study a simple lowest-order QCD…

We investigate resonant di-Higgs production as a means of probing extended scalar sectors that include a 125 GeV Standard Model-like Higgs boson. For concreteness, we consider a gauge singlet Higgs portal scenario leading to two mixed…
