At LEP~1, cross sections and cross section asymmetries may be analysed model independently. Cross sections depend on four, asymmetries on two free parameters. As an example, I discuss the model independent $Z$ boson mass determination from…

We investigate the forward-backward asymmetries in the pair production of fourth family fermions through the new Z' interactions in the e+e- collisions. The Z' boson having family universal couplings can contribute to the pair production of…
An S-Matrix ansatz is used to determine the mass and width of the Z boson, as well as the contributions of gamma/Z interference and Z boson exchange to fermion-pair production. For this purpose we use hadron and lepton-pair production cross…

Lepton and quark asymmetries at Z boson peak are a powerful means to test the couplings of the Z boson to fermions. The measurements performed at LEP and SLC colliders are reviewed, and their impact on the determination of the electroweak…
We quantitatively discuss the possibility of deriving model-independent constraints on the general four-fermion contact interaction couplings, from the currently available data on the two-fermion production processes $e^+e^-\to\mu^+\mu^-$,…
In this report we calculate the cross section and $A_{ll}$ asymmetry for the diffractive $J/\Psi$ leptoproduction. We study dependences of the asymmetry on the structure of the Pomeron-proton coupling
The most general form of the $WWZ$ and $WW\gamma$ interaction contains a $CP$-violating term which has the same threshold behaviour as the Standard Model $\ee \to \ww$ cross section. We calculate the cross section as a function of the…
Because the Peccei-Quinn (PQ) symmetry has to be anomalous to solve the strong CP puzzle, some colored and chiral fermions have to transform non-trivially under this symmetry. But when the SM fermions are charged, as in the PQ or DFSZ…
