The probability of Z-boson decay to a pair of charged fermions in a strong electromagnetic field, is calculated. On the basis of a method that employs exact solutions to relativistic wave equations for charged particles, analytic…
We demonstrate that rare decays of the Standard Model $Z$ boson can be used to discover and characterize the nature of new hidden-sector particles. We propose new searches for these particles in soft, high-multiplicity leptonic final states…
We perform an extensive survey of rare and exclusive few-body decays -- defined as those with branching fractions $\mathcal{B} \lesssim 10^{-5}$ into two to four final particles -- of the Higgs, Z, W bosons, and the top quark. Such rare…
We investigate extremely rare top quark decays at a future proton-proton collider with centre-of-mass energy of 100 TeV. We focus on two decay modes: radiative decay with a $Z$ boson, $t \rightarrow b WZ$, and flavour-changing neutral decay…
The phenomenological model of an extra U(1) neutral gauge Z' boson coupled to heavy quarks is presented. In particular, we discuss the probability for a light $Z_{2}$ mass eigenstate decay into a bound state composed of heavy quarks via…
The measurement of the invisible Z-boson decay width at e+e- colliders can be done "indirectly", by subtracting the Z-boson visible partial widths from the Z-boson total width, or "directly", from the process e+e- -> \gamma \nu \bar{\nu}.…
A search is presented for a heavy resonance decaying into either a pair of Z bosons or a Z boson and a W boson (ZZ or WZ), with a Z boson decaying into a pair of neutrinos and the other boson decaying hadronically into two collimated quarks…
A search for forbidden and exotic Z boson decays in the diphoton mass spectrum is presented for the first time in hadron collisions, based on data corresponding to 10.0 fb^-1 of integrated luminosity from proton-antiproton collisions at…
A search is presented for heavy bosons decaying to Z($\nu\bar{\nu}$)V(qq'), where V can be a W or a Z boson. A sample of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV was collected by the CMS experiment during 2016-2018. The data…
We discuss the very rare, exclusive hadronic decays of a Z boson into a meson and a photon. The QCD factorization approach allows to organize the decay amplitude as an expansion in powers of $\Lambda_{\rm QCD}/m_Z\,$, where the leading…
Results are reported from a search for the anomalous production of highly boosted Z bosons with large transverse momentum and decaying to dimuons. Such Z bosons may be produced in the decays of new heavy particles. The search uses pp…
A search has been performed for heavy resonances decaying to ZZ or ZW in 2$\ell$2q final states, with two charged leptons ($\ell=$ e,$\mu$) produced by the decay of a Z boson, and two quarks produced by the decay of a W or Z boson. The…
New Neutral Gauge Bosons, Z' 's, are predicted by many models of physics beyond the Standard Electroweak Theory. It is possible that a Z' would be discovered early in the Large Hadron Collider program. The next step would be to measure its…
The simplest little Higgs model predicts a light pseudoscalar boson $\eta$ and opens up some new decay modes for $Z$-boson, such as $Z \to \bar{f} f \eta$, $Z\to \eta\eta\eta$, $Z\to \eta\gamma$ and $Z\to \eta gg$. We examine these decay…
Anomalous couplings of the $Z$ boson to top quarks are only marginally constrained by direct searches and are still sensitive to new particle dynamics at the TeV scale. Employing an effective field theory approach we consider the…
Based on the expectation generated by the discovery of new particles by current colliders, we analyze the decay of the Z' boson in the frame of one of the SU(3)L \otimes U(1)N electroweak extensions of the standard model. The main objective…
New physics models admit the interesting possibility of a Z' weak boson associated with an extra U(1) gauge symmetry and a Higgs boson that is heavy enough to decay into a pair of Z bosons. Then Z' production and decay via Z' -> ZH -> ZZZ…
The search for exclusive hadronic vector boson decays is an ongoing part of the LHC programme where, to date, no such decays have been observed. In addition to the intrinsic interest in the branching ratios, there is potential for a…
We present precise predictions for a variety of jet observables in $ZH$ production at electron-positron colliders, with the $Z$ boson decaying leptonically and the Higgs boson decaying into two hadronic jets, up to NNLO in perturbative QCD.…
The processes of pair production of S- and P- wave charmonium, as well as the production of the tetraquark (cc \bar{c} \bar{c}) in the Higgs boson decays are investigated within the framework of relativistic quark model. Relativistic decay…
