    Modified interactions in the electroweak sector may lead to scattering amplitudes that grow with energy compared to their Standard Model (SM) counterparts. We present a detailed study of all 2โ†’2 scattering amplitudes involving at least one top quark and a pair of EW bosons. We analyse the high energy behaviour of the amplitudes using the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) to...

    We analyze constraints on anomalous tWb couplings that parameterize the possible contribution of New Physics to the weak tWb vertex. We take into account indirect constraints obtained from B-physics ($B\to X_s \gamma$, $B\to X_s l^+l^-$, $B$-$\bar B$ oscillations) and direct constraints from the t-channel single top quark production. In two-dimensional scenarios when different pairs of the...

    The Matrix Element Method is a promising multi-variate analysis method which offers an optimal approach to compare theory and experiment. However, until recently its usage has been limited by the fact that only leading-order predictions could be employed. This rather crude approximation of the underlying probability distribution can introduce a significant bias into the analysis which requires...

    In top quark production, the polarization of top quarks, decided by the chiral structure of couplings, is likely to be modified in the presence of any new physics contribution to the production. Hence the same is a good discriminator for those new physics models wherein the couplings have a chiral structure different than that in the Standard Model (SM).

    We have performed an object tagging approach to identify boosted top quark decaying to electron or muon final state without an explicit use of the lepton. When top quark is produced with large transverse momentum, its daughter lepton has a hadronic activity in it's neighborhood, and hence standard lepton identification and isolation criteria are affected. We have come up with novel observables...

    The Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) project aims to build a circular electron-positron collider capable of precision physics measurements at center-of-mass energies ranging from 90 GeV to 240GeV. The CEPC has a total circumference of at least one hundred kilometers and at least two interaction points. In its 10 years operation at 240 GeV, it will collect more than one million Higgs...

    The 3rd generation quarks are, due to their large mass, highly sensitive probes for new physics connected to the electroweak symmetry breaking. Linear e+e- colliders allow for clean measurements of heavy quark final states between the Z-Pole and the TeV scale with sensitivities to different aspects of the manifestations of new physics in the extracted electroweak couplings. At the same time...

    The Large Hadron-electron Collider (LHeC) is a proposed upgrade of the LHC at CERN. It consists of an ERL providing electrons to collide with the HL-LHC, HE-LHC and the FCC-hh proton beams achieving centre-of-mass energies 1.3-3.5 TeV, respectively, and luminosities $\sim 10^{34}$ cm$^{โˆ’2}$ s$^{-1}$. These large luminosities and the corresponding cross sections provide huge possibilities for...
