The study of the scattering at high energy of the gauge bosons W and Z, in particular longitudinally polarized W and Z, can clarify the mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking in the Standard Model of the electroweak interactions.…
We study large top quark mass effects on low energy physics in the chiral Lagrangian formulated electroweak theories. We show that these radiative corrections can be easily obtained from a set of Feynman diagrams involving only the scalar…
Contrary to what is sometimes stated, the current electroweak precision data easily allow for massive composite resonance states at the natural EW scale, i.e., well over the TeV. The oblique parameters S and T are analyzed by means of an…
A study on the effective anomalous interactions, up to dimension 5, of the top quark with the electroweak gauge bosons is made in the non-linear Chiral Lagrangian approach. Bounds on the anomalous dimension four terms are obtained from…
The review of the measurements of the gauge couplings in the boson sector at LEP is presented. The measurements of the charged triple gauge couplings (cTGC) parameters from the four LEP experiments are combined and the results are in good…
Our picture of the electroweak interactions continues to improve, with ever more precise constraints on the masses of the Higgs boson(s) and on non-standard physics. Some recent developments include: (a) a calculation of higher-order…
The current status of electroweak precision observables in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is reviewed. We focus in particular on the $W$ boson mass, M_W, the effective leptonic weak mixing angle, sin^2 theta_eff, the…
We discuss theoretical uncertainties of the distribution in the cosine of the W polar angle projected into a measurement of the anomalous triple gauge-boson coupling \lambda=\lambda_{\gamma}=\lambda_Z at LEP2 energies for the tandem of the…
Recently, realistic theories of electroweak symmetry breaking have been constructed in which the electroweak symmetry is broken by boundary conditions imposed at a boundary of higher dimensional spacetime. These theories have equivalent 4D…
Recently, a new class of realistic models for electroweak symmetry breaking have been constructed, without supersymmetry. These theories have naturally light Higgs bosons and perturbative new physics at the TeV scale. We describe these…
Precise measurements of weak vector bosons self couplings give a hint on the electroweak symmetry breaking sector. We first stress that present data from LEP and TEVATRON clearly indicate that weak bosons are self interacting. We then…
In this work we report on the results obtained in a detailed and systematical study of the possibility to measure the parameters appearing in the electroweak chiral lagrangian. The main novelty of our approach is that we do not use the…
The measurements of electroweak sector of the Standard Model are presented, including most recent results from LEP, Tevatron and HERA colliders. The robustness of the Standard Model is illustrated with the precision measurements, the…
We discuss theoretical uncertainties of the measurement of the $W$ boson mass at LEP2 energies, reconstructed with the help of the tandem of the Monte Carlo event generators KoralW and YFSWW3. Exploiting numerical results obtained with…
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…
This is a short review of present and future limits on new neutral gauge bosons, in particular on hadrophilic or leptophobic $Z'$s recently proposed to interpret the observed fluctuations of $\Gamma _{c,b}$ at LEP. Light gauge bosons…
This note presents constraints on Standard Model parameters using published and preliminary precision electroweak results measured at the electron-positron colliders LEP and SLC. The results are compared with precise electroweak…
We review the recent progress in studying the anomalous electroweak quartic gauge boson couplings (QGBCs) at the LHC and the next generation high energy e+-e- linear colliders (LCs). The main focus is put onto the strong electroweak…
This note presents constraints on Standard Model parameters using published and preliminary precision electroweak results measured at the electron-positron colliders LEP and SLC. The results are compared with precise electroweak…
We perform a preliminary study of the deviations from the Standard Model prediction for the cross section for the process $e \gamma \rightarrow \nu_e W \gamma$. We work in the context of a higgsless chiral lagrangian model that includes an…
