Effective three meson couplings, based in flavor U(3) quark-antiquark interactions, are considered to describe two light neutral axial meson Strong decays, $A \sim f_1(1285)$ and $f_{1S} (1420)$, and the charged rho meson decay in the…
We discuss the production of the composite Higgs boson in topcolor models via the gluon fusion process. We consider the contribution of color-octet massive gauge bosons (colorons) strongly interacting with the top quark, in addition to…
A search for heavy resonances that decay to tau lepton pairs is performed using proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 13 TeV. The data were collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 2.2…
We introduce an anomalous top quark coupling (right-handed current) into Standard Model Lagrangian. Based on this, a more complete calculation of $b \to s\gamma $ decay including leading log QCD corrections from $m_{top}$ to $M_W$ in…
Applying the perturbative QCD ( PQCD ) method, we study the decay $B_c\rightarrow D_s^*\gamma$ in the standard model and multiscale walking technicolor model. In the SM, we find that the contribution of weak annihilation is more important…
The simple "straw-man" model of low-scale technicolor contains light color--singlet technihadrons, which mix with the electroweak gauge bosons. We present lepton collider production rates at the parton level, and show that experiments at…
We have studied a flavor-changing toppion production process $e^{+}e^{-}\to t\bar{c}\Pi^{0}_{t}$ in the topcolor-assisted technicolor(TC2) model. The studies show that, with high centre of mass energy in TESLA collider, the production cross…
We suggest a criterion to minimize the amount of fine-tuning in a composite Higgs model. The paradigm of this type of model is the top-condensate model of Bardeen, Hill and Lindner (BHL). Although "minimally fine-tuned", this model failed…
In topcolor assisted technicolor, topgluons are massive gluons which couple mainly to top and bottom quarks. We estimate the mass reach for topgluons decaying to b anti-b at the Tevatron as a function of integrated luminosity. The mass…
The top-charm associated productions via $e^+ e^-$, $e^- \gamma$ and $\gamma \gamma$ collisions at linear colliders, which are extremely suppressed in the Standard Model (SM), could be significantly enhanced in some extensions of the SM. In…
We discuss a model which involves the top quark condensation and the walking technicolor. We focus on the scalar boson in such a model from the viewpoint of the observed scalar boson at the LHC.
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 propose a model of suppression of large $p_T$-pions in heavy ion collisions based on the interaction of the large $p_T$ pion with the dense medium created in the collision. The model is practically the same as the one previously…
Vacuum alignment in technicolor models provides an attractive origin for the quarks' CP violation and, possibly, a natural solution for the strong-CP problem of QCD. We discuss these topics in this paper. Then we apply them to determine…
We have studied a neutral toppion production process $\gamma\gamma\to f\bar{f}\Pi_{t}^{0}(f=t,b)$ in the topcolor-assisted technicolor(TC2) model. We find that the cross section of $\gamma\gamma\to t\bar{t}\Pi_{t}^{0}$ is much larger than…
Many standard model extensions, including composite Goldstone Higgs models, predict vector-like fermionic top-partners at the TeV scale. The intensive search programmes by ATLAS and CMS focus on decays into a 3$^{\rm rd}$ generation quark…
We consider the radiative decay $b\rightarrow s \gamma$, and the correction to the $Zb\overline{b}$ vertex in technicolor models with scalars. In these models, the scalar develops a vacuum expectation value when the technifermions condense,…
It is shown that a technicolor theory containing a color-octet technipion, usually denoted by $P^{0'}_{8}$, will give rise to an enhancement of $t \bar t$ production at the Tevatron, LHC and SSC, via the process $gg \rightarrow P^{0'}_{8}…
The presence of the top-pions $\pi_{t}^{0,\pm}$ in the low-energy spectrum is an inevitable feature of the topcolor scenario. Taking into account the constraints of the present experimental limit of the lepton flavor violating($LFV$)…
A clean determination of the angle $\alpha$ of the unitary triangle from $B\to \pi\pi$ decays requires an isospin analysis. If the $B \to \pi^0\pi^0$ and $\bar B \to \pi^0\pi^0$ decay rates are small it may be hard to carry out this…
