The $\eta_c$ meson leptoproduction is calculated within the nonrelativistic QCD framework for the first time. It is found that the colour-singlet channel, although suppressed by a factor of $\alpha_s$ relative to the colour-octet ones,…
We study the single top production mediated by flavor changing neutral current via both of the $t-q-\gamma$ and $t-q-Z$ vertices (here q represents c and u quarks) in ep collisions at two colliders HERA and THERA. Contribution of the second…
It has been recognized recently that there is a remarkable empirical relation between lepton and quark mixing angles, theta_{12} + theta_C \approx pi/4. If not accidental, it should testify for yet uncovered new relationship between the…
A search for anomalous single-top production, ep -> etX, t -> Wb, has been made with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 130 pb^-1. No evidence for top-quark production was found in either the leptonic or the…
The K0s-p invariant mass spectrum was reconstructed in several kinematic regions with the main emphasis on the studies of the production mechanism of the Theta+ candidate recently observed by ZEUS. The candidate Theta+ signal was found to…
Data from HERA, LEP and the Tevatron, as well as from low energy experiments are used to constrain the scale of possible electron-quark contact interactions. Different models are considered, including the most general one, in which all new…
We show that a search for $e^+ e^- \to t \bar q$ $(\bar q = \bar c, \bar u)$ events at LEP--2 collider provide a possibility to improve significantly the modern constraints on coupling constants of anomalous $t$--quark interaction via…
We consider the possibility of experimental observation of flavor-diagonal and helicity conserving contact terms in the four fermion reactions e^+ e^- -> e^+ e^- \mu^+ \mu^- and e^- q -> e^- \mu^+ \mu^- q at LEP2 and HERA.
We performed an analysis on possible anomalous top-quark couplings generated by SU(2) x U(1) gauge-invariant dimension-6 effective operators, applying the optimal-observable procedure to the final lepton/b-quark momentum distribution in…
We analyze the effects of Scalar and Vector Leptoquarks on various observables in electron (positron) - proton deep inelastic scattering. In view of the future program of the HERA collider, with a high luminosity and also with polarization,…
We investigate the production of fourth family up-type quarks using effective lagrangian approach at future lepton-hadron colliders and study the kinematical characteristics of the signal with an optimal set of cuts. We obtain the upper…
Light first generation leptoquarks are being hunted for in HERA and at FNAL and there are various proposals for further searches in future machines. Such leptoquarks are however problematic from a theoretical point of view: Low energy…
In the framework of the minimal supersymmetric standard model and the $R$-parity breaking model, we investigate various production processes of the supersymmetric partner at HERA energies. Our emphasis is paid upon the scalar top quark, the…
We perform a detailed study of a variety of LHC signals in supersymmetric models where lepton number is promoted to an (approximate) U(1)_R symmetry. Such a symmetry has interesting implications for naturalness, as well as flavor- and…
The $e^+p$-data collected with the ZEUS (${\cal L}=47.7$ pb$^{-1}$) and the H1 (${\cal L}=37$ pb$^{-1}$) detectors at HERA in 1994--1997 are analysed for signals of lepton flavour violation mediated by leptoquark exchange, both in the muon…
We present a general phenomenological analysis of a class of Two Higgs Doublet Models with Flavor Changing Neutral Currents arising at the tree level. The existing constraints mainly affect the couplings of the first two generations of…
The masses of quarks and leptons suggest a strong hierarchical structure. We argue that their patterns can be reproduced through the introduction of a new Abelian symmetry. The data suggest that this symmetry is anomalous. We suggest that…
I will review simplified models with leptoquarks, which can explain recent anomalies in $B$-meson physics, and I will indicate the High-Luminosity LHC prospects for testing these theories, with a special focus to the efficient channel of…
We study the sensitivity of certain observables to the anomalous right tensorial coupling in single top production at the LHC at $\sqrt{s}=13 \text{ TeV}$. The observables consist of asymmetries constructed from the energy and angles of the…
Data from LEP2 on hadron production in gamma gamma interactions at high pT exceed the predictions of QCD by about an order of magnitude. The amplitude for the process is asymptotically proportional to the sum of the squares of the charges…
