The upper bounds that the LHC measurements searching for heavy resonances beyond the Standard model set on the resonance production cross sections are not universal. They depend on various characteristics of the resonance under…

We study the deep inelastic scattering and photo-production modes of $t\overline{t}$ pairs at the proposed LHeC and its potential to probe the electromagnetic and weak dipole moments (MDM and EDM for $tt\gamma$) of the top quark. A…

A measurement of observables sensitive to effects of colour reconnection in top-quark pair-production events is presented using 139 fb$^{-1}$ of 13$\,$TeV proton-proton collision data collected by the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Events are…

The LHC has started to explore the TeV energy regime, probing the SM beyond LEP and Tevatron. We show how the dijet measurements at the LHC are able to test certain sectors of the SM at an unprecedented level. We provide the best bounds on…

The scalar sector of the Standard Model is extended to include an arbitrary assortment of scalars. In the case where this assignment does not preserve $\rho=1$ at the tree-level, the departure from unity itself puts the most stringent…

Color octet bosons are a universal prediction of models in which the 750 GeV diphoton resonance corresponds to a pion of a QCD-like composite sector. We show that the existing searches for dijet and photon plus jet resonances at the LHC…

A critical survey of the existing direct and indirect constraints on massive spin-one color octets is presented. Since such new degrees of freedom appear in any extension of the color gauge group to a product of at least two SU(3) factors,…

We consider new physics contributions to the top-quark forward-backward asymmetry from a neutral $V^0_8$ or charged $V^+_8$ color-octet vector exchanged in the $t$-channel. We study the phenomenological constraints on these particles…

We show that in the absence of trilinear terms in the scalar potential of Georgi-Machacek model, heavy charged scalars do not necessarily decouple from the $h \to \gamma \gamma$ decay amplitude. In such scenarios, measurement of the Higgs…

We show that in the Higgs triplet model, after the Higgs discovery, the mixing angle in the CP-even sector can be strongly constrained from unitarity. We also discuss how large quantum effects in $h\to\gamma\gamma$ may arise in a SM-like…

A simple formalism to describe flavor and CP violation in a model independent way is provided. Our method is particularly useful to derive robust bounds on models with arbitrary mechanisms of alignment. Known constraints on flavor violation…

We consider the possibility of studying novel particles at the TeV scale with enhanced couplings to the top quark via top quark pair production at the LHC and VLHC. In particular we discuss the case of neutral scalar and vector resonances…

The results of a previous search by the CMS Collaboration for squarks and gluinos are reinterpreted to constrain models of leptoquark (LQ) production. The search considers jets in association with a transverse momentum imbalance, using the…

We investigate the production of heavy coloured scalars and vectors and their relevance at LHC for the study of vector-like quarks ($T$). These coloured states ($C$) are present in a large number of extensions of the standard model, in…

It is widely believed that existing electroweak data requires a Standard Model Higgs to be light while electroweak and flavour physics constraints require other scalars charged under the Standard Model gauge couplings to be heavy. We…

The experiments at the LHC are searching for many different final states that can hint to the presence of new physics beyond the Standard Model. One of the most interesting and promising sectors for these searches is that of the top quark,…

With the next start of LHC, a huge production of top quarks is expected. There are several models that predict the existence of heavy colored resonances decaying to top quarks in the TeV energy range. A peak in the differential cross…

Using the chargino-neutralino and slepton search results from the LHC in conjunction with the WMAP/PLANCK and $(g-2)_{\mu}$ data, we constrain several generic pMSSM models with decoupled strongly interacting sparticles, heavier Higgs bosons…

A consistent description of the $ d d \rightarrow$ $^{4}\hspace{-0.03cm}\mbox{He} \eta$ and $ d d \rightarrow$ ($^4$He$\eta$)$_{bound} \rightarrow X $ cross sections was recently proposed with a broad range of real ($V_{0}$) and imaginary…

We explore the ability of the high luminosity LHC to test models which can explain the 750 GeV diphoton excess. We focus on a wide class of models where a 750 GeV singlet scalar couples to Standard Model gauge bosons and quarks, as well as…
