We study the effects of non-commutative QED (NCQED) in fermion pair production, $\gamma + \gamma \to f + \bar{f}$ and Compton scattering, $e + \gamma \to e + \gamma$. Non-commutative geometries appear naturally in the context of…
We study possibilities to measure the triple anomalous W-boson couplings to photon in the $e\gamma\to W\nu$ process via its lepton decay channel (with the simplest signature). We found that in the study of the $W$ quadruple momentum…
In the context of topcolor-assisted technicolor (TC2) models, we consider the process $e^{+}e^{-}\to \nu\bar{\nu}\gamma$ and calculate the cross section of this process at leading order.It is shown that the extra U(1) gauge boson…
If supersymmetry is dynamically broken at a low scale ($M_{susy}$), within a few orders of magnitude of the weak scale, then the lightest supersymmetric partner is the gravitino and the next to lightest supersymmetric partner is a…
It is well known that technicolor models in which the electroweak symmetry is broken by QCD-like strong dynamics at the TeV scale generally predict unacceptably large corrections to low-energy observables. We investigate the models of…
The phenomenology associated with gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking is presented. A renormalization group analysis of the minimal model is performed in which the constraints of radiative electroweak symmetry breaking are imposed. The…
The top quark may get its mass not from a fundamental scalar but a Nambu-Jona-Lasinio mechanism involving a strongly coupled gauge sector that triggers top-quark condensation. Forbidding a large hierarchy in the gap equation implies that…
We perform a detailed study of the process $e^+e^-\to \mu^+\mu^-\nu_l\bar\nu_l$ including all contributions. The contributions other than from real gauge boson production leads to a rich phenomenology. We explore the use of the process as a…
The Tevatron experiments CDF and DO are close to making definitive statements about the technicolor discovery mode rho_T -> W pi_T for M(rho_T) <~ 230 GeV and M(pi_T) <~ 125 GeV. We propose new incisive tests for this mode and searches for…

We discuss a scenario in which the diphoton enhancement at $M_{\gamma \gamma}$ = 750 GeV, observed by the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations, is a neutral technipion $\tilde{\pi}^0$. We consider two distinct minimal models for the dynamical…
