A first observation is presented for the electroweak production of a W boson, a photon, and two jets in proton-proton collisions. The W boson decays are selected by requiring one identified electron or muon and an imbalance in transverse…
We present a study of single-diffractive $W$-boson production in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=14$ TeV, $pp \to Xp$ with $X$ including a $W$ boson, with the CMS detector. We discuss the feasibility of observing this process with an…
We examine the prospects for measuring the photon-photon branching ratio of a Standard-Model-like Higgs boson ($h$) at the Next Linear $e^+e^-$ Collider when the Higgs boson is produced via $W^+W^-$--fusion: $e^+e^-\to\nu_e \bar\nu_e h$. In…

A $\gamma\gamma$ collider, either in conjunction with an $e^+e^-$ linear collider or as a stand-alone facility, offers a very attractive Higgs physics programme at relatively low centre-of-mass (c.m.) energies. While the Higgs boson that…
In a strongly-interacting electroweak sector with an isosinglet vector state, such as the techni-omega, $\omega_T$, the direct $ \omega_T Z \gamma $ coupling implies that an $\omega_T$ can be produced by $Z \gamma$ fusion in $e \gamma$…
Present limits on the top mass from LEP1 and Tevatron point to a top quark that is considerably heavier than the $W$ vector boson in the standard model. Hence, e+e- colliders with \sqrt{s} \simeq 300 GeV (the c.m. energy foreseen at the…
Extra neutral gauge bosons suggested by models beyond the standard model can indirectly show up in $e^{+} e^{-}$ collisions through off-resonance deviations of various physical observables from the corresponding standard model values. We…
We study the production of bileptons, new gauge boson of lepton number two, in the minimal 3 - 3 - 1 model in high energy electron - photon collisions. If the bilepton masses are in the range of 300 GeV the reaction will give observable…
We calculate the cross sections for the single production of doubly-charged dileptons, both scalar and vector, at $e^+e^-$, $e\gamma$ and $\gamma\gamma$ colliders at $\sqrt{s}=500$ GeV and 1 TeV. The $e\gamma$ mode is by far the most…
Following the HL-LHC era, proposed lepton colliders highlight the need to study various important Higgs boson production mechanisms to precisely probe the Standard Model Higgs sector. We propose a novel mechanism $e^\pm \gamma \rightarrow…

For a Higgs boson below the $W^\pm$ threshold, the $\gamma \gamma$ collider option of a future linear $e^+ e^-$ machine is compelling. In this case one can measure the ``gold-plated'' loop induced $\Gamma (H \longrightarrow \gamma \gamma)$…
