We search for lepton-flavor-violating tau -> lV(0) decays, where l is an electron or muon and V-0 is one of the vector mesons rho(0), phi, omega, K*(0) and (K) over bar*(0). We use 854 fb(-1) of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric ...
The search of the Standard Model Higgs boson decaying into a pair of weak bosons with the subsequent leptonic decay of the W or Z bosons is presented. The contributions achieved by this work range from the réévaluation of Higgs boson normalisation cross-se ...
The hierarchy problem and the electroweak data, together, provide a plausible motivation for considering a light Higgs emerging as a pseudo-Goldstone boson from a strongly-coupled sector. In that scenario, the rates for Higgs production and decay di ff er ...
The cross section for a Majorana Dark Matter particle annihilating into light fermions is helicity suppressed. We show that, if the Dark Matter is the neutral Majorana component of a multiplet which is charged under the electroweak interactions of the Stan ...
We present a model-independent prescription for computing the gluon fusion production rate of a composite Higgs boson, which arises as a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson, using effective Lagrangians. The calculation incorporates three different effects due to ...
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) accelerator at CERN near Geneva is designed to collide protons with a centre-of-mass energy up to 14 TeV. It was tested at lower energy in November 2009. The world record collisions of beams of 1180 MeV was achieved. The LHC ...
This biennial Review summarizes much of particle physics. Using data from previous editions, plus 2158 new measurements from 551 papers, we list, evaluate, and average measured properties of gauge bosons, leptons, quarks, mesons, and baryons. We also summa ...
We explore direct collider probes of the resonant leptogenesis mechanism for the origin of matter. We work in the context of theories where the Standard Model is extended to include an additional gauged U(1) symmetry broken at the TeV scale, and where the ...
We derive constraints on the sign of couplings in an effective Higgs Lagrangian using prime principles such as the naturalness principle, global symmetries, and unitarity. Specifically, we study four dimension-six operators, O-H, O-y, O-g, and O-gamma, whi ...
We study statistical signatures of composite bosons made of two fermions by extending number states to these quantum particles. Two-particle correlations as well as the dispersion of the probability distribution are analyzed. We show that the particle comp ...
