New quark singlets T can be produced in pairs at LHC through standard QCD interactions, with a large cross section for masses of several hundreds of GeV. Their charged current decays T Tbar T -> W+ b W- bbar, with semileptonic decay of the…
Results are presented from a search for the pair-production of heavy quarks, Q Q-bar, that decay exclusively into a top quark and a W or Z boson. The search is performed using a sample of proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV…
\D0 has used W --> e nu events associated with a high pT jet to probe for the effects of extended source color dipole radiation in W-jet rapidity correlations. We have also studied the low energy flow in these events and shown an…
Many new-physics models, especially those with a color-triplet top-quark partner, contain a heavy color-octet state. The "naturalness" argument for a light Higgs boson requires that the color-octet state be not much heavier than a TeV, and…
We present a search for pair production of a fourth generation t' quark and its antiparticle, followed by their decays to a W boson and a jet, based on an integrated luminosity of 5.3/fb of proton-antiproton collisions at sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV…
We study heavy baryons with exotic flavor quantum numbers formed by a heavy meson and a nucleon (DbarN and BN) with positive parity. One pion exchange interaction, providing a tensor force, dominates as a long range force to bind the DbarN…
We use a consistent SU(6) extension of the meson-baryon chiral Lagrangian within a coupled channel unitary approach in order to calculate the T-matrix for meson-baryon scattering in s-wave. The building blocks of the scheme are the pion and…
Current limits from the LHC on fourth generation quarks are already at the unitarity bound of 500 GeV or so. If they exist, the strong Yukawa couplings are turning nonperturbative, and may form bound states. We study the domain of m_{b'}…
Final state interactions in quark fragmentation may give origin to non zero values of the off-diagonal element rho_(1,-1) of the helicity density matrix of vector mesons V produced in current jets, with a large energy fraction x_E; the…
We study the possible production of the $\rho$-resonance from the Strong Electroweak Symmetry Breaking sector at LHC. Due to possibly enhanced couplings of $\rho$ to the top and bottom quarks we focus on the process pp -> b \bar{b} t…
The production rate of prompt $\psi'$'s at large transverse momentum at the Tevatron is larger than theoretical expectations by about a factor of 30. As a solution to this puzzle, we suggest that the dominant $\psi'$ production mechanism is…
Strange hadron production in pp collisions at $\sqrt{s}= 7$ TeV is studied with PYTHIA 8 and EPOS event generators via the two-particle correlation method. After pairing charged particles as trigger particles with associated strange hadrons…
We present the first search for pair production of isolated jets of charged leptons in association with a large imbalance in transverse energy in ppbar collisions using 5.8 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity collected by the D0 detector at the…
A search is presented for a massive particle, generically referred to as a Z', decaying into a t t-bar pair. The search focuses on Z' resonances that are sufficiently massive to produce highly Lorentz-boosted top quarks, which yield…
TGD predicts the existence of color octet excitations of ordinary leptons forming 'leptohadrons' as their color singlet bound states. There is some evidence on the existence of leptohadrons: the production of anomalous $e^+e^-$ pairs in…
The transverse momentum distributions for inclusive $\eta_{c,b}$ meson described by gluon-gluon interactions from photoproduction processes in relativistic heavy ion collisions are calculated. We considered the color singlet (CS) and color…
High-pT hadrons produced in hard collisions and detected inclusively bear peculiar features: (i) they originate from jets whose initial virtuality and energy are of the same order; (ii) such jets are rare and have a very biased energy…
We consider gq -> Zt, gq -> gamma t and gq -> t production (q=u,c) mediated by strong flavour-changing neutral interactions within an effective operator framework. We provide total cross sections for Tevatron and LHC, showing explicitly…
The color gauge hyper-multiplet in N=2 supersymmetry consists of the usual N=1 gauge vector/gaugino super-multiplet, joined with a novel gaugino/scalar super-multiplet. Large cross sections are predicted for the production of pairs of the…
We propose the color-octet mechanism combined with the two gluon exchange model for the diffractive $J/\psi$ production in hadron collisions. In the leading logarithmic approximation (LLA) in QCD, we find that the diffractive $J/\psi$…
