We present the results of the first search for a new particle X produced in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at \sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV and subsequently decaying to Z\gamma. The search uses 0.3 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected with the D{\O}detector at the…
Elastic light-by-light scattering, $\gamma\gamma\to\gamma\gamma$, is open to study at the Large Hadron Collider thanks to the large quasi-real photon fluxes available in electromagnetic interactions of protons (p) and lead (Pb) ions. The…

In left-right symmetric models, large contributions to the decay amplitude $b \rightarrow s+ \gamma$ can arise from the mixing of the $W_L$ and $W_R$ gauge bosons as well as from the charged Higgs boson. These amplitudes are enhanced by the…
Cosmological models assuming the scale invariance of the macroscopic empty space show an accelerated expansion, without calling for some unknown particles. Several comparisons between models and observations (tests on distances, m-z…
The sensitivities to the anomalous quartic gauge boson coupling $\gamma\gamma\gamma Z$ are estimated via $\gamma Z$ production with intact protons in the forward region at the LHC. Proton tagging proves to be a powerful tool to suppress the…
We consider the possibility of detecting a heavy Higgs boson ($m_H>2m_Z$) in proposed $\gamma\gamma$ colliders through the semi-leptonic mode $\gamma\gamma \rightarrow H \rightarrow ZZ \rightarrow q\bar q \ell^+\ell^-$. We show that due to…

Photon mass and Cartan contortion bounds recently obtained from tiny Lorentz violation observations in cosmology are used to find a limit of ${\lambda}\le 10^{-4}{\alpha}$ for the massive photon-torsion dimensionless coupling. Here…
We study the rare decay process of $Z$ boson into photon, accompanied by a CP-even or CP-odd scalar. We present the analytical delineation of the processes through the model-independent parametrizations of the new physics couplings and,…
We suggest that Bose statistics for photons can be tested by looking for decays of spin-1 bosons into two photons. The experimental upper limit on the decay $Z \rightarrow \gamma \gamma $ is used to establish for the first time the…
Using \Zg\ candidate events collected by the CDF detector at the Tevatron Colli\der, we search for potential anomalous (non-standard-model) couplings between t\he $Z$ boson and the photon. \Zg\ couplings vanish at tree level and are…
