We consider the supersymmetric extension of the standard model with an additional singlet $S$, the Non-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (NMSSM), in the limit $\tan\beta \simeq m_t/m_b$. We embed this model in a supergravity framework…
In the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM), when radiative corrections are included, the mass of the $CP=+1$ lightest Higgs boson is bounded by $\sim 110\ GeV$ for $m_t < 150\ GeV$ and a scale of supersymmetry breaking $\sim\ 1\…

We explore `benchmark planes' in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) that are in agreement with the measured cold dark matter (CDM) density, electroweak precision observables (EWPO) and B physics observables (BPO). The…
We study the SM-like Higgs boson decays $h\rightarrow MZ$ in the Triplet extended NMSSM (TNMSSM),where M is a vector meson ($\rho$, $\omega$, $\phi$, $J/\Psi$, $\Upsilon$). Compared to the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM), the…

Collisions of non-topological solitons, Q-balls, are considered in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model where supersymmetry has been broken at a low energy scale via a gauge mediated mechanism. Q-ball collisions are studied numerically…

We tested several models in which the Standard Model (SM) gauge group is extended by an additional U(1) gauge symmetry, against available electroweak precision data to impose limits on the mass of the neutral Z' boson, M_Z', predicted in…
Additional Z' gauge bosons are predicted by a wide variety of extensions of the standard model (SM). Possibilities include TeV-scale bosons with electroweak coupling, very light bosons which nearly decouple from the standard model…
