We study the phenomenology of same sign top pair production at the LHC in a model-independent way. The complete set of dimension six operators involving two top (or anti-top) quarks is introduced and the connection with all possible t- or…
We study single production and detection at the LHC run II of exotic partners of the bottom quark. For masses larger than 1 TeV single production can dominate over pair production that is suppressed due to phase space. The presence of…
The potential of LHC for investigation of the $W$-$t$-$b$ vertex through the $tW$ channel of single top quark production is studied. Unlike the other two single top quark production processes ($t-$channel and $s-$channel), the $tW$ channel…
The ATLAS experiment at the LHC at CERN has analyzed 2010 and 2011 data looking for electroweak production of single top quarks in the lepton+jets and di-lepton final states. The production cross section for the t-channel process is…
Single-top production processes have been studied using 0.7 fb-1 of data from 7 TeV center-of-mass energy proton-proton collisions collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Single-top is electroweak top production and the standard model…
In the search for bottom squark (sbottom) in SUSY at the LHC, the common practice has been to assume a $100\%$ decay branching fraction for a given search channel. In realistic MSSM scenarios, there are often more than one significant decay…
Multi-top quark production is a staple program at the LHC. Single-top and $t\bar t$ productions are studied extensively, while current efforts are zooming in on four-top search, where the Standard Model (SM) cross section is at ${\cal…
We examine the ability of LHC experiments to observe jets from squark pair production at the center-of-mass energy E$_{CM}$=10 TeV and 1 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity. We point out the crucial influence of initial- and final-state…
Associated production of a Higgs boson with a heavy, i.e. top or bottom, quark-anti-quark pair provide observation channels for Higgs bosons at the LHC which can be used to measure the respective Yukawa couplings. For the light…

We discuss the production of single top-quark final states by direct supersymmetric flavor-changing interactions at the LHC. The total cross section pp(gg)->t\bar{c}+\bar{t}c is computed at the 1-loop order within the unconstrained MSSM. We…
The single-top production cross section is one third that of the top-pair production cross section at the LHC. During the first year of data taking, the determination of the major contributions to the total single-top cross section should…
The production of multiple gauge bosons via weak boson fusion is an important process at the LHC. It is relevant as a background process appearing in many searches and measurements, but also serves as a signal process when studying…
Precision measurement of the cross section for single top production is an important test of the Standard Model (SM). The purity of the collected data in single top events is limited by the understanding of the shape and yield of background…
We compute the complete electroweak one-loop effect on the process of $t$-channel single top production at LHC in the Standard Model and in the MSSM within the mSUGRA symmetry breaking scheme. We find that the one-loop electroweak SM effect…
This thesis presents a study of the prospects of measuring electroweak production of the top quark at the LHC. The study of the top quark is a highly topical subject as we expect significant numbers of top quarks at the LHC which will…
Single sparticle creation in high energy collisions as a consequence explicit $R$-parity breaking, could be a rich source of highly spectacular signals at future colliders. One particular process, which could lead to a highly exotic…
The Higgs boson production p p (p\bar p) -> b h +X via b g -> b h at the LHC, which may be an important channel for testing the bottom quark Yukawa coupling, is subject to large supersymmetric quantum corrections. In this work the one-loop…

Resonant production of scalar bottom, which is allowed in R-parity violating interactions of supersymmetry, has been investigated at the LHeC collider. Although searching for the physics beyond the standard model is a primary task of the…
