Many new physics models predict the existence of TeV-scale charged gauge boson $W^\prime$ together with Higgs boson(s). We study the $W^\prime WH$ interaction and explore the angular distribution of charged lepton to distinguish $W_R^\prime…

We parameterize the non-universal couplings of t-t-Z and t-b-W in the electroweak chiral lagrangian approach, and examine the constraints on these parameters from the LEP data. We also study how the SLC, Tevatron, LHC and NLC can improve…

In the Standard Model the process $q\bar{q}\rightarrow q\bar{q}V$ (where $V=W^\pm,Z^0$ or $\gamma$) can occur via gluon exchange and also via $W^\pm$ or $Z^0$ exchange. The corresponding chromodynamic and electroweak amplitudes can…

I argue that it would be crucial to have as many channels as possible to understand the physics of electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) in next-generation collider experiments. A historic example of the parity violation and the $V-A$…
