We present the first data on $e^+e^-$ pair production accompanied by nuclear breakup in ultra-peripheral gold-gold collisions at a center of mass energy of 200 GeV per nucleon pair. The nuclear breakup requirement selects events at small…
New CP-violating asymmetries of decay leptons in $e^+\,e^-\;\ra\;t\,\bar{t}$, arising from electric and weak dipole couplings of $t\,\bar{t}$ to $\gamma$ and $Z$, are examined in the case of unpolarized and longitudinally polarized…
The Forward-backward asymmetry in the angular distribution of $e^+e^-$ is studied in the process $B\to e^+e^- and \bar{B}\to \bar{X}_d e^+e^-$ . The possibility of observing CP violation through the asymmetries in these two processes is…
We study the potential of the next-generation $e^+ e^-$ linear colliders with longitudinally polarized beams, to restrict the values of the anomalous trilinear couplings $WW\gamma$ and $WWZ$ from the measurement of the process $e^+ e^-\to…
Recent measurements of CP asymmetry in B --> phi K_S appear to be inconsistent with Standard Model expectations. We explore the effect of R-parity-violating SUSY to understand the data.
Collisions of twisted particles --- that is, non-plane-wave states of photons, electrons, or any other particle, equipped with a non-zero orbital angular momentum (OAM) with respect to its propagation direction --- offer novel ways to probe…
A search for chargino, neutralino and scalar lepton pair-production in e+e- collisions at the centre-of-mass energy of 189 GeV is performed under the assumptions that R-parity is not conserved in decays and only one of the coupling…
The lepton number violating process, $e^- e^- \to W^- W^-$ has been widely discussed in the Majorana neutrino exchange mechanism. Here, we discuss this process in a composite neutrino model where excited Majorana neutrinos are exchanged. We…
I give an overview of the physics potential at possible future $e^+ e^-$ colliders, including the ILC, FCC-ee, and CEPC. The goal is to explain some of the measurements that can be done in the context of electroweak precision tests and…
Beam polarisation is an integral part of the physics case of future Linear Colliders. In this contribution, important examples from Higgs coupling measurements, top and electroweak physics at high energies, the Z pole program as well as…
We investigate bounds from tree-level and one-loop processes in generic supersymmetric models with spontaneous R-parity breaking in the superpotential. We analyse the bounds from a general point of view. The bounds are applicable both for…

While the much discussed lepton-number violating process $e^-e^-\rightarrow W_R^-W_R^-$ provides an excellent probe of both the Majorana nature of the right-handed neutrino and the symmetry breaking sector of the Left-Right Symmetric Model,…
I give a short summary of scenarios with new physics scalars that could be investigated at future $e^+e^-$ colliders. I concentrate on cases where at least one of the additional scalar has a mass below 125 GeV, and discuss models where this…
It is shown that at muon colliders with the energy in the region of 100 TeV the process of coherent pair creation by the muon in the field of the opposing beam becomes important and imposes some limitations on collider parameters.
Non-Standard-Model parity violation may be occurring in LHC collisions. Any such violation would go unseen, however, as searches are for it are not currently performed. One barrier to searches for parity violation is the lack of…
Electroweak radiative corrections to the cross section of the process $e^+ e^- \to Z H$ are considered. The complete one-loop electroweak radiative corrections are evaluated with the help of the SANC system. Higher-order contributions of…
I overview the status of the Electroweak Symmetry Breaking problem, paying special attention to the possible signals of new physics at the Large Hadron Collider (and at a Linear Collider)
We investigate the production of charginos and neutralinos at a 500 GeV e^+e^- collider (NLC) and study their decays to the lightest neutralino, which then decays into multi-fermion final states through couplings which do not conserve…
We summarize the results of two papers in which we have studied CP violation in inclusive and exclusive decays b -> d e^+e^-. Two CP-violating effects are calculated: the partial rate asymmetry between b and \bar{b} decay, and the asymmetry…
