A search for an exotic decay of the Higgs boson to a pair of light pseudoscalar bosons is performed for the first time in the final state with two b quarks and two $\tau$ leptons. The search is motivated in the context of models of physics…

Extra neutral gauge bosons arise in many extensions of the Standard Model. If one were to be discovered it would be necessary to measure its properties so that we could understand its origins. In this report we find that Z' couplings can be…

A search is reported for a neutral Higgs boson in the decay channel H->Z gamma, Z->l+l- (l=e, mu), using 4.5 fb-1 of pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV and 20.3 fb-1 of pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV, recorded by the ATLAS detector at the…
We reveal a set of novel decay topologies for the 125 GeV Higgs boson in supersymmetry which are initiated by its decay into a pair of neutralinos, and discuss their collider search strategies. This category of exotic Higgs decays are…
We observed electron-positron pairs from the electro-magnetically forbidden M0 transition depopulating the 21.01 MeV 0$^-$ state in $^4$He. A peak was observed in their $e^+e^-$ angular correlations at 115$^\circ$ with 7.2$\sigma$…

A search for a Higgs boson decaying into a pair of electrons or muons and a photon is described. Higgs boson decays to a Z boson and a photon (H $\to$ Z$\gamma\to\ell\ell\gamma$, $\ell =$ e or $\mu$), or to two photons, one of which has an…
