The supersymmetric standard model contains a new CP-violating phase in the mass matrices for charginos and neutralinos, which could induce CP-odd anomalous couplings for the WWZ and WW\gamma vertices at the one-loop level. We study these…

It is possible that the low-energy effects of physics beyond the standard model can be parametrized mainly by anomalous couplings of quarks to the W boson. Such couplings can generate potentially significant contributions to various…
Conventional wisdom has it that anomalous gauge-boson self-couplings can be at most a percent or so in size. We test this wisdom by computing these couplings at one loop in a generic renormalizable model of new physics. (For technical…
We study the potential effect of anomalous couplings of the third generation quarks to gauge bosons in rare B decays. We focus on the constraints from flavor changing neutral current processes such as $b\to s\gamma$ and $b\to s…
Effective anomalous quartic gauge couplings on tree level appear, e.g., in a strong interacting Higgs scenario. We present a status report on our study on triple boson production sensitive to these couplings. The study is done for…
In this note, we give a definitive basis for the dimension-eight operators leading to quartic -- but no cubic -- interactions among electroweak gauge bosons. These are often called anomalous quartic gauge couplings, or aQGCs. We distinguish…

If there is new physics associated with the top quark, it could show up as anomalous couplings of the top quark to weak gauge bosons, such as $Z\ttbar$ and $W\tbbar$ vector and axial-vector couplings. We use the processes $\ttbar\to…
