We show that holographic models of QCD predict the presence of a Chern-Simons coupling between vector and axial-vector mesons at finite baryon density. In the AdS/CFT dictionary, the coefficient of this coupling is proportional to the…
We review and update current limits on possible anomalous couplings of the top quark to gauge bosons. We consider data from top quark decay (as encoded in the $W$-boson helicity fractions) and single-top production (in the $t$-, $s$- and…
We construct a low energy effective Lagrangian for the two-color QCD including the "vector" bosons (mesons with J^P=1^- and diquark baryons with J^P=1^+) in addition to the pseudo Nambu-Goldstone bosons with a degenerate mass M_\pi (mesons…
A spin-1 weakly interacting vector boson, Z', is predicted by many new physics theories. Searches at colliders for such a Z' resonance typically focus on lepton-antilepton or top-antitop events. Here we present a novel channel with a Z'…
We recently showed that a new gauge boson $\gamma_B$ coupling only to baryon number is phenomenologically allowed, even if $m_B<m_Z$ and $\alpha_B \approx 0.2$. In our previous work we assumed that kinetic mixing between the baryon number…
The possible existence of a new gauge boson U, light and very weakly coupled, allows for Light Dark Matter particles, which could also be at the origin of the 511 keV line from the galactic bulge. Independently of dark matter, and taking…
Masses and especially coupling constants of the vector meson nonet are determined in the large-N_c limit, but beyond the chiral limit taking into account terms up to quadratic order in the Goldstone boson masses. With two input parameters…
We calculate the coupling constants between the light vector mesons and heavy mesons within the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rule in the leading order of heavy quark effective theory. The sum rules are very stable with the variations…
A search is presented for a heavy pseudoscalar boson A decaying to a Z boson and a Higgs boson with mass of 125 GeV. In the final state considered, the Higgs boson decays to a bottom quark and antiquark, and the Z boson decays either into a…
In the LHCb detector at CERN, decays of $\chi_b(3P)$ meson to $\Upsilon(1S)\gamma$ and $\Upsilon(2S)\gamma$ are reported at centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt s=7$ and 8 TeV. Following the success of the assignment of…
We present a search for a new heavy charged vector boson $W^\prime$ decaying to an electron-neutrino pair in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at a center-of-mass energy of $1.96\unit{TeV}$. The data were collected with the CDF II detector and…
We report on a measurement of the Upsilon(1S+2S+3S) -> e+e- cross section at midrapidity in p+p collisions at sqrt(s)=200 GeV. We find the cross section to be 114 +/- 38 (stat.) +23,-24 (syst.) pb. Perturbative QCD calculations at…
We have examined the sensitivity to the axion-like particle (ALP) couplings to electroweak gauge bosons in the diphoton production at a future muon collider. The collisions at the $\mu^+ \mu^-$ energies of 3 TeV, 14 TeV, and 100 TeV are…
QCD as a gauge non-Abelian theory imposes severe constraints on the structure of the baryon wave function. We point out that, contrary to a widely accepted belief, the traces of baryon number in a high-energy process can reside in a…
We present a new constraint for the axion monopole-dipole coupling in the range of 1 micrometer to a few millimeters, previously unavailable for experimental study. The constraint was obtained using our recent results on the observation of…
This Letter presents a search for new resonances with mass larger than 250 GeV, decaying to a $Z$ boson and a photon. The dataset consists of an integrated luminosity of 3.2 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions collected at $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV with…
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…
The baryon- coupling to its current ($\lambda_{B}$), in conventional QCD sum rule calculations (QCDSR), is shown to scale as the cubic power of the baryon mass, $M_B$. Some theoretical justification for it comes from a simple light-cone…
We present the Tevatron combination of searches for the Higgs boson and studies of its properties. The searches use up to 10 fb$^{-1}$ of Tevatron collider Run II data. We observe a significant excess of events in the mass range between 115…
The apparent unification of gauge couplings around 10^16 GeV is one of the strong arguments in favor of Supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model (SM). In this contribution two new analyses of the gauge coupling running, the latter…
