Littlest Higgs model predicts some extra particles beyond the Standard Model. Among them, an extra neutral gauge boson A_H is lightest and its mass could be a few hundred GeV. We study production and decay of A_H at future e^+ e^- inear…
Events from the e+e- -> Zgamma process with hard initial state radiation collected with the L3 detector at centre-of-mass energies between 183 GeV and 209 GeV are used to measure the mass of the Z boson. Decays of the Z boson into hadrons…
Constraints on extra neutral gauge bosons are obtained from $e^+e^-\rightarrow f\bar f$ at NLC energies. Model independent limits on the $Z'f\bar f$ couplings and lower limits on the $Z'$ mass are discussed. Typical GUTs with $M_{Z'}$ up to…
If there is no the Standard Model Higgs boson, the interaction among the gauge bosons becomes strong at high energies (~ 1TeV). The effects of strong electroweak symmetry breaking could manifest themselves indirectly through the vertices as…

The process $e^+e^-\to H t\bar t$ can be used at the Next Linear Collider to measure the Higgs-top Yukawa coupling. In this paper, we compute $2\to 8$ processes of the form $e^+e^-\to b\bar b b\bar b W^+W^-\to b\bar b b\bar b…
We study the process $e^+ e^- \to \gamma \gamma \nu \bar{\nu}$ in the context of a strong electroweak symmetry breaking model, which can be a source of events with two photons and missing energy at LEP2. We investigate bounds on the model…
A first measurement of the cross section of the process e+e- -> Z gamma gamma is reported using a total integrated luminosity of 231 pb^-1 collected with the L3 detector at centre-of-mass energies of 182.7 GeV and 188.7 GeV. By selecting…

Polarization of both electron and positron beams at a future linear collider (LC) allows for the measurement of transverse polarization asymmetries. These asymmetries have been shown to be particularly sensitive to graviton or other spin-2,…

$W$ boson pair production processes at $e^+e^-$ and $pp$ colliders have been conventionally interpreted as measurements of $WWZ$ and $WW\gamma$ triple gauge couplings (TGCs). Such interpretation is based on the assumption that new physics…
Theoretical backgound for bileptonic gauge bosons is reviewed, both the SU(15) GUT model and the 3-3-1 model. Then the mass limits for bileptons are discussed coming from $e^+e^-$ scattering, polarized muon decay and muonium-antimuonium…
