Some new physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics, like Supersymmetry, Extra-dimensions etc., and their effect on the nature of different standard model phenomena are explored in this thesis. We discuss the power law scaling of…
In this short note I present a simple calculation of the top quark and Higgs masses, based on the idea that in the standard model without elementary Higgs, the fact that the $U(1)_Y$ coupling becomes of the order of unity at the Landau…
Electroweak precision data have been extensively used to constrain models containing physics beyond that of the Standard Model. When the model contains Higgs scalars in representations other than singlets or doublets, and hence rho not…
In two recently proposed supersymmetric extended electroweak gauge models, the reduced Higgs sector at the 100-GeV energy scale consists of only two doublets, but they have quartic scalar couplings different from those of the minimal…
The Higgs boson discovery at the LHC with a mass of approximately 126 GeV suggests, that the electroweak vacuum of the standard model may be metastable at very high energies. However, any new physics beyond the standard model can change…
We investigate the vacuum stability in a scale invariant local $U(1)_\chi$ model with vanishing scalar potential at the Planck scale. We find that it is impossible to realize the Higgs mass of 125\,GeV while keeping the Higgs quartic…
Within one loop approximation, the renormalization group analysis of the Higgs boson mass is performed with an initial condition induced by $m_{_H}=\sqrt{2}m_{_W}$ which is presented in the new scheme of our noncommutative differential…
The numerical input for the quantitative consequences of the electroweak standard model, the hypercharge and isospin coupling constants and the Higgs field ground state mass value, are interpreted as normalizations of the symmetries…
We present a renormalizable model of electroweak interactions containing an extra $SU(2)'_L\otimes SU(2)'_R$ symmetry. The masses of the corresponding gauge bosons and of the associated Higgs particles can be made heavy by tuning a…
We update instability and metastability bounds of the Standard Model electroweak vacuum in view of the recent ATLAS and CMS Higgs results. For a Higgs mass in the range 124--126 GeV, and for the current central values of the top mass and…
For strong enough Yukawa coupling the electroweak standard model fermion finds it energetically advantageous to transform itself into a bound state in the hedgehog background of Higgs field in semiclassical approximation. By considering the…
We show how a heavy scalar singlet with a large vacuum expectation value can evade the potential instability of the Standard Model electroweak vacuum. The quartic interaction between the heavy scalar singlet and the Higgs doublet leads to a…
The effective potential of the Higgs scalar field in the Standard Model may have a second degenerate minimum at an ultrahigh vacuum expectation value. This second minimum then determines, by radiative corrections, the values of the…
We summarize our analysis for the vacuum stability of the superweak extension of the standard model. The parameter space allowed by the $W$-boson mass measurements and collider searches for a new scalar particle are also presented. The…
We find bounds on scalar masses resulting from a criterion of naturalness, in a broad class of two Higgs doublet models (2HDMs). Specifically, we assume the cancellation of quadratic divergences in what are called the type I, type II,…
We study the finite-temperature effective potential of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, in the limit of only one light Higgs boson. Because of the large top Yukawa coupling, there can be significant differences with respect to the…
Nowadays in the MSSM the moderate values of $\tan\beta$ are almost excluded by LEP II lower bound on the lightest Higgs boson mass. In the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model the theoretical upper bound on it increases and reaches…
The ununified standard model is an extension of the standard model that contains separate electroweak gauge groups for quarks and leptons. When it was originally proposed, data allowed the new gauge bosons to be quite light. We use recent…
The renormalization-group equation for the zero-point energies associated with vacuum fluctuations of massive fields from the Standard Model is examined. Our main observation is that at any scale the running is necessarily dominated by the…
We have studied imposing the condition that the Standard Model effective Higgs potential should have two approximately degenerate vacua, such that the vacuum we live in is just barely metastable: the one in which we live has a vacuum…
