We study the production and decay of fourth generation leptons at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).We find that for charged leptons with masses under a few hundred GeV, the dominant collider signal comes from the production through a W-boson…
It is pointed out that in a wide class of models reminiscent of type-II Two-Higgs-Doublet Models (2HDM) the signal of the Higgs produced in association with a top-antitop quark pair ($tth$) and decaying into gauge bosons can be…
The LHC search for the charged Higgs boson in the intermediate-mass range ($M_{H^\pm} \sim m_t$) is actively being performed after the next-to-leading order calculation of the total production cross section of $p p \to H^\pm W^\mp b…
A search is presented for the pair-production of heavy vector-like quarks (VLQs) that each decay into a $W$ boson and a light quark. This study focuses on events where one $W$ boson decays into leptons and the other into hadrons. The search…
A search for new heavy resonances decaying to a pair of Higgs bosons (HH) in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV is presented. Data were collected with the CMS detector at the LHC in 2016-2018, corresponding to an…
A search for flavor-changing neutral current interactions of the top quark (t) and the Higgs boson (H) is presented. The search is based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 137 fb$^{-1}$ recorded by the CMS…
The usual range of new particle masses, up to a few TeV, searched for at the LHC may be substantially extended if ultraheavy diquark particles exist. A diquark scalar, $S_{uu}$, that interacts perturbatively with two up quarks may be as…
We analyze some signatures of neutral Higgs bosons, produced in high energy proton (anti)proton collisions, which decay primarily to top quarks. This channel is clouded by a large irreducible $t\bar t$ background. We investigate the $t\bar…
Two triplet vector-like quarks (VLQs) with hypercharges of $Y=2/3, -1/3$ and one singlet scalar boson are embedded in the standard model (SM) to resolve the 750 GeV diphoton excess. The constraints on the tree-level Higgs- and $Z$-mediated…
A search is presented for the single production of vector-like quarks in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$, were recorded with the CMS experiment at the…
A search is presented for single production of heavy vector-like quarks (B) that decay to a Higgs boson and a b quark, with the Higgs boson decaying to a highly boosted $\mathrm{b\overline{b}}$ pair reconstructed as a single collimated jet.…
Composite Higgs models are only now starting to be probed at the Large Hadron Collider by Higgs searches. We point out that new resonances, abundant in these models, can mediate new production mechanisms for the composite Higgs. The new…
A search for the flavour-changing neutral-current decay $t\to qZ$ is presented. Data collected by the ATLAS detector during 2012 from proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV,…
A search for flavor-changing neutral current (FCNC) processes in associated production of a top quark and Higgs boson, with the Higgs boson decaying to a pair of b quarks, is presented. To experimentally probe the top-Higgs FCNC couplings,…
This paper presents the latest measurements of the properties of the top quark as determined by the DZero and CDF collaborations at the Fermilab Tevatron ppbar collider. Both experiments have studied the all-hadronic decay mode of ttbar…
A search for new heavy scalars with flavour-violating decays in final states with multiple leptons and $b$-tagged jets is presented. The results are interpreted in terms of a general two-Higgs-doublet model involving an additional scalar…
This proceeding presents the latest studies on the Yukawa couplings of the Standard Model Higgs boson with 139 fb$^{-1}$ data collected using the ATLAS detector at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. A first direct probe of $CP$ violation in…
New vector-like quarks can have sizable couplings to first generation quarks without conflicting with current experimental constraints. The coupling with valence quarks and unique kinematics make single production the optimal discovery…
A combined statistical analysis of searches for heavy vector boson resonances decaying into pairs of W, Z, or Higgs bosons, as well as into quark pairs ($\mathrm{q\bar{q}}$, $\mathrm{b\bar{b}}$, $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$, $\mathrm{t\bar{b}}$) or…
The rare decay modes Higgs $\rightarrow$ four light fermions, and Higgs $\rightarrow$ single top-quark + three light fermions for $m_t<M_H<2m_t$, are presented, and phenomenologically interpreted. The angular correlation between fermion…
