Collider Beyond Standard Model Physics

I will present a general analysis for the discovery potential of CP-violation (CPV) searches in scattering processes at TeV-scale colliders in an effective field theory approach. The CP-violating sector of the SMEFT framework will be examined in some well motivated limiting cases, based on flavour symmetries of the underlying heavy theory. In particular, we show that under naturality arguments...
Composite Higgs models with an underlying fermionic description predict heavy spin-1 resonances. We study the spin-1 states in a class of realistic models where they come as colour triplets, sextets, and octets. The colour octet vector state is present in all models and mixes with the gluon, allowing for single production at hadron colliders. I will present the phenomenology of these states...
We perform a detailed study of the current phenomenological status of baryon number violating operators within the framework of the R-parity violating Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (RPV-MSSM). This study aims to identify any gaps in the experimental coverage of the RPV landscape. We identify the unique final states for all possible LSPs decaying via four different benchmark UDD...
The color-triplet partner of the Higgs doublet, called a $T$-particle, is a universal feature of Grand Unification. It has been shown some time ago that this particle can be accessible for direct production in collider experiments. In this talk we point out that the $T$-particle represents a simultaneous low-energy probe of baryon number violation as well as of the origin of the neutrino mass,...
Leveraging recent advancements in machine learning-based flavor tagging, we develop an optimal analysis for measuring the hadronic cross-section ratios $R_b$, $R_c$, and $R_s$ at the FCC-ee during its $WW$, $Zh$, and $t\bar t$ runs. Our results indicate up to a two-order-of-magnitude improvement in precision, providing an unprecedented test of the SM. Using these observables, along with...
