We present a new complete analysis of the electroweak precision observables within the recently proposed 4-site Higgsless model, which is based on the SU(2)_L x SU(2)_1 x SU(2)_2 x U(1)_Y gauge symmetry and predicts six extra gauge bosons,…
Complex parameters in the MSSM lead to mixing and interference between the two heavier neutral CP-even and CP-odd Higgs states. These effects can become very large in the case of almost degenerate states. In a CP-violating benchmark…
Constraints are set on the Higgs boson decay width, Gamma_H, using off-shell production and decay to ZZ in the four-lepton (4l), or two-lepton-two-neutrino (2l2nu) final states. The analysis is based on the data collected in 2012 by the CMS…
Final states comprising two or more top quarks are important search channels at the Large Hadron Collider for scalar particles predicted in models of physics beyond the Standard Model. While the di-top final state profits from a higher…
Exclusive differential spectra in color-singlet processes at hadron colliders are benchmark observables that have been studied to high precision in theory and experiment. We present an effective-theory framework utilizing soft-collinear…
We present a search for standard model Higgs boson to WW(*) production in dilepton plus missing transverse energy final states in data collected by the CDF II detector corresponding to 4.8/fb of integrated luminosity. To maximize…
We consider a simple, yet generic scenario in which a new heavy $Z'$ gauge boson couples both to SM fermions and to dark matter. In this framework we confront the best LHC limits on an extra gauge boson $Z'$ to the constraints on couplings…
Recent direct searches for new massive particles place constraints on the free parameters of the Littlest Higgs model. Depending on the choice of model free parameters, the direct search limit on the global symmetry breaking scale f can…
Interference effects in effective field theory (EFT) analyses can significantly distort sensitivity expectations, leaving subtle yet distinct signatures in the reconstruction of final states crucial for limit setting around Standard Model…
We study the impact of LHC forward-backward asymmetry (AFB) measurements at high invariant-mass in the Drell-Yan process on probes of semileptonic four-fermion operators in the Standard Model effective field theory (SMEFT). In particular,…
2-Higgs Doublet Models (2HDMs) typically need to invoke an ad-hoc discrete symmetry to avoid severe flavor bounds and in addition feature massless neutrinos, thus falling short of naturally complying with existing data. However, when…
Searching for Z' bosons, predicted in GUT-inspired U(1)' gauge models and in the Sequential Standard Model, is one of the main challenges of the experiments carried out at the Large Hadron Collider. Such searches have so far focused on…
We investigate the impact of interactions between hidden sectors and the discovered Higgs boson $h_{125}$, allowing for additional invisible decay channels of $h_{125}$. We perform $\chi^2$-fits to the measurements of the Higgs-boson cross…
The exclusive (B -> K_2 l^+ l^-) decay is studied using the most general, model independent four-fermion interaction. The sensitivity of the ratio of the decay widths when K_2 meson is longitudinally and transversally polarized, the…
We study the phenomenology of heavy gauge bosons at the LHC in a nonuniversal gauge interaction model with the separate electroweak SU(2) gauge group for the third generation. Considered are the Drell-Yan processes into the final states of…
The CDF collaboration recently reported a measurement of the $W$-bosos mass, $M_W$, showing a large positive deviation from the Standard Model (SM) prediction. The question arises whether extensions of the SM exist that can accommodate such…
This paper presents a search for a new Z' vector gauge boson with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider using pp collision data collected at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb$^{-1}$. The…
Recently, the CDF collaboration has reported a new precision measurement of the $W$-boson mass, $M_W$, showing a large deviation from the value predicted by the Standard Model (SM). In this paper, we analyse possible new physics…
We discuss possible non-standard contributions to the top-quark width, particularly the virtual effects on the standard decay $t\rightarrow W^+\,b$ within the context of the MSSM. We also place a renewed emphasis on the unconventional mode…
A search for a Higgs boson in the four-lepton decay channel H to ZZ, with each Z boson decaying to an electron or muon pair, is reported. The search covers Higgs boson mass hypotheses in the range 110 < mH < 600 GeV. The analysis uses data…
