Recently, the ATLAS and CMS experiments have been accumulating increasing statistics on the production of two electroweak (EW) bosons or more, such as HH and WWZ. These multi-boson final states are essential for probing the nature of the EW symmetry-breaking sector and its potential extensions within the framework of Effective Field Theories (EFTs), both in the linear realization (SMEFT) and...

Axion-like particles (ALPs) are hypothetical pseudoscalar states that emerge as pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons from the breaking of an approximate global $ U(1) $ symmetry. They appear in several extensions of the Standard Model, offering potential solutions to the strong CP problem, the muon $(g\!-\!2)$ anomaly, neutrino mass generation, and dark matter. While most collider-based studies focus...

Self-organised criticality, realised through cosmological dynamics in the early universe, is an alternative paradigm for addressing the electroweak hierarchy problem. In this scenario, an unnaturally light Higgs boson is the result of dynamics driving the electroweak vacuum towards a near-critical metastable point where the Higgs mass is bounded from above by the vacuum instability scale. To...
