A search for the standard model Higgs boson (H) decaying to a b-quark pair when produced in association with weak vector bosons (V) is reported for the following modes: W(mu,nu)H, W(e,nu)H, Z(mu,mu)H, Z(e,e)H and Z(nu,nu)H. The search is…
A search for the pair production of fourth generation b'-quarks was performed using data taken by the DELPHI detector at LEP-II. The analysed data were collected at centre-of-mass energies ranging from 196 to 209 GeV, corresponding to an…
We show that, if a fourth generation is discovered at the Tevatron or LHC, one could study CP violation in b' \to s decays. Asymmetries could reach 30% for b'\to sZ for m_{b'} \lesssim 350 GeV, while it could be greater than 50% for b'\to…
We present a search for Higgs bosons decaying into b-bbar and produced in association with W bosons in p-pbar collisions at sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV. This search uses 320 pb-1 of the dataset accumulated by the upgraded Collider Detector at…
Searches for light $H^\pm$s via $t\to H^\pm b$ are being carried out at the LHC. Herein, it is normally assumed that the dominant decay channels are $H^\pm\to \tau\nu$ and $H^\pm\to cs$ and separate data analyses are performed with…
We discuss the implications of assuming a four-zero Yukawa texture for the charged Higgs decay $H^+ \to W^+ \gamma$ at one-loop level, within the context of the general 2-Higgs Doublet Model of Type III. We begin by presenting a detailed…
This article presents a search for flavour-changing neutral currents in the decay of a top quark into an up-type ($q = c, u$) quark and a Higgs boson, where the Higgs boson decays into two photons. The proton--proton collision data set…
The presence of a new singlet scalar particle a can open up new decay channels for the Higgs boson, through cascades of the form h -> 2a -> X, possibly making discovery through standard model channels impossible. If a is CP-odd, its decay…

We report results from a search for neutral Higgs bosons produced in association with b quarks using data recorded by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 7.3 fb-1. This…
If the fourth generation fermions exist, the new quarks could influence the branching ratio of the decay $B_s \to \nu \bar{\nu} \gamma$. We obtain two solutions of the fourth generation CKM factor $V^*_{t's} V_{t'b}$ from the decay of $B…
Results are presented on a search for a light charged Higgs boson that can be produced in the decay of the top quark to charged H and b quark and which, in turn, decays into tau and tau neutrino. The analysed data correspond to an…
A search for flavour-changing neutral current decays of a top quark to an up-type quark ($q=u, c$) and the Standard Model Higgs boson, where the Higgs boson decays to $b\bar{b}$, is presented. The analysis searches for top quark pair events…
We discuss an alternative version of the electroweak standard model, in which only the heavy t quark, not the light fermions, couples to the Higgs boson with a strength given by the standard model. The Higgs particle decays dominantly into…
LHCb has recently reported the first observation of a four-body baryonic $B\to{\bf B_1\bar B'_1 B_2\bar B'_2}$ decay, where ${\bf B_1\bar B'_1}$ and ${\bf B_2\bar B'_2}$ represent the two pairs of octet baryon states. In our classification,…
We study the exclusive decay B_s -> \tau^+ \tau^-$ in the general two Higgs doublet model. We analyse the dependencies of the branching ratio on the model parameters, including the leading order QCD corrections. We found that there is an…
Top-quark decays are sensitive probes of light charged Higgs bosons ($H^\pm$) due to the sizable $t\bar t$ production cross section at the LHC in conjunction with their distinct experimental signatures. While dedicated ATLAS and CMS…
The implications of the latest measurement of the branching fraction of B($ b\rightarrow s \gamma $) of b hadrons, which is another signature of New Physics beyond Standard Model is presented here. The quark transitions $ b \rightarrow s $,…
We consider the bounds for the values of higgs mass $M_H$ and of the mass of the extra quarks and leptons $M_{extra}$ derived from the stability of vacuum and from the absence of Landau pole in Higgs potential. We find that in the case of…
