An analysis is given of the capability of the LHC to detect narrow resonances using high luminosities and techniques for discriminating among models are discussed. The analysis is carried out with focus on the $U(1)_X$ Abelian (Higgless)…
The tails of diboson production at the LHC are sensitive to the interference between Standard Model and higher dimension operators parameterizing the effects of heavy new physics. However, helicity selection rules for the diboson scattering…
The spin correlations in the pair of $\tau$ leptons produced in the high-energy proton-proton collisions are studied. The invariant mass of the $\tau$-lepton pair is chosen close to $Z$-boson mass, in these conditions $Z$-boson exchange…
We discuss prospects of the $Z'$ search at the LHC in non-minimal Universal Extra Dimensions with tree-level brane-local terms in five dimensions. In this scenario, we find two major differences from the usual $Z'$ physics: (i) two $Z'$…
Vector leptoquarks (vLQs) are popular candidates for searching for physics beyond the Standard Model. In this paper, we present updated exclusion limits on various vLQ species, accounting for all the relevant production mechanisms at the…
We discuss the expected sensitivity to Z' boson effects in the W^\pm boson pair production process at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The results of a model-dependent analysis of Z' boson effects are presented as constraints on the Z-Z'…
If the LHC discovers a $Z'$-like state the extraction of its couplings to the particles of the Standard Model becomes mandatory in order to determine the nature of the underlying new physics theory. It has been well-known for some time that…
Very recently, the ATLAS and CMS collaborations reported diboson and dijet excesses above standard model expectations in the invariant mass region of 1.8 -2.0 TeV. Interpreting the diboson excess of events in a model independent fashion…
We recognise the appearance of a Focus Point (FP) in the transverse momentum distribution of either leptons originating from a BSM $Z^\prime$-boson decay, after a simple normalisation procedure. Exploring the properties of the FP we will be…
High-energy diboson processes at the LHC are potentially powerful indirect probes of heavy new physics, whose effects can be encapsulated in higher-dimensional operators or in modified Standard Model couplings. An obstruction however comes…
A U(1)' or Z' is generic in many scenarios of physics beyond the Standard Model, such as string theory compactifications, GUTs, extra-dimensions, compositeness, dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking, dark-sector models, etc. We study the…
At the LHC, dileptonic events may turn up new physics interacting with quarks and leptons. The poster child for this scenario is a resonant $Z'$, much anticipated in $\ell^+ \ell^-$ invariant mass spectra. However, angular spectra of…
Continuing with our investigations of the expected sizes of multiple photon radiative effects in heavy gauge boson production with decay to charged lepton pairs in the context of the precision physics of the LHC, using \KK{MC}-hh 4.22 we…
We reinterpret $W'$, $Z'$ and Higgs searches at the LHC in terms of a model with nonuniversal $V'$ couplings to fermions in order to gauge how well these searches can be applied outside the (simplified) scenarios for which they were…
We consider $Z'$s in heterotic string derived models and study $Z'$ resonant production at the TeV scale at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We use various kinematic differential distributions for the Drell-Yan process at NNLO in QCD to…
In extensions of the Standard Model with compactified extra dimensions, perturbative unitarity of the longitudinal gauge bosons is maintained through the contribution of heavy KK excitations of the gauge fields, without the necessity of…
An anomaly-free $U(1)'$ effective Lagrangian as the most common new physics beyond the standard model is proposed to survey the maximal parameter space constrained by electroweak precise measurements at the LEP and direct detection in…
Di-lepton searches for Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) Z' bosons that rely on the analysis of the Breit-Wigner (BW) line shape are appropriate in the case of narrow resonances, but likely not sufficient in scenarios featuring Z' states with…
The ATLAS detector data on di-lepton production is used in order to impose constraints on $Z^\prime$ boson masses associated with a variety of 3-3-1 and $E_6$ motivated $Z'$ models. Lower mass bounds for the different models are established…
We examine current Large Hadron Collider constraints on some simple $Z'$ models that significantly improve on Standard Model fits to $b\to s\mu^+\mu^-$ transition data. The models that we consider are the 'third family baryon number minus…
