We consider the possibility of studying new physics that singles out the tau-lepton at the LHC. We concentrate on the tau-lepton charge asymmetry in tau+tau- pair production as a tool to probe this physics beyond the Standard Model. We consider two generic scenarios for the new physics. We first study a non-universal Z boson as an example of a new resonance that can single out tau-leptons. We then consider vector lepto-quarks coupling of the first generation quarks with the third generation leptons as an example of non-resonant new physics. We find that in both cases the charge asymmetry can be sufficiently sensitive to the new physics to provide useful constraints at the LHC.

The associated production of a single-top with opposite-sign same-flavor (OSSF) di-leptons, $pp to t ell^+ ell^-$ and $ pp to t ell^+ ell^- + j$ ($j=$light jet), can lead to striking tri-lepton $pp to ell^prime ell^+ ell^- + X$ and di-lepton $pp to e
ll^+ ell^- + j_b + X$ ($j_b=b$-jet) events at the LHC, after the top decays. Although these rather generic multi-lepton signals are flavor-blind, they can be generated by new 4-Fermi flavor changing (FC) $u_i t ell ell$ scalar, vector and tensor interactions ($u_i in u,c$), which we study in this paper; we match the FC $u_i t ell ell$ 4-Fermi terms to the SMEFT operators and also to different types of FC underlying heavy physics. The main backgrounds to these di- and tri-lepton signals arise from $t bar t$, $Z$+jets and $VV$ ($V=W,Z$) production, but they can be essentially eliminated with a sufficiently high invariant mass selection on the OSSF di-leptons, $m_{ell^+ ell^-}^{tt min}(OSSF) > 1$ TeV; the use of $b$-tagging as an additional selection in the di-lepton final state case also proves very useful. We find, for example, that the expected 95% CL bounds on the scale of a tensor(vector) $u t mu mu$ interaction, with the current $sim 140$ fb$^{-1}$ of LHC data, are $Lambda < 5(3.2) $ TeV or $Lambda < 4.1(2.7)$ TeV, if analyzed via the di-muon $mu^+ mu^- + j_b$ signal or the $e mu^+ mu^-$ tri-lepton one, respectively. The expected reach at the HL-LHC with 3000 fb$^{-1}$ of data is $Lambda < 7.1(4.7)$ TeV and $Lambda < 2.4(1.5)$ TeV for the corresponding $u t mu mu$ and $c t mu mu$ operators. We also study the potential sensitivity at future 27 TeV and 100 TeV high-energy LHC successors and also discuss the possible implications of this class of FC 4-Fermi effective interactions on lepton non-universality tests at the LHC.
SND@LHC is an approved experiment equipped to detect scattering of neutrinos produced in the far-forward direction at the LHC, and aimed to measure their properties. In addition, the detector has a potential to search for new feebly interacting parti
cles (FIPs) that may be produced in proton-proton collisions. In this paper, we discuss FIPs signatures at SND@LHC considering two classes of particles: stable FIPs that may be detected via their scattering, and unstable FIPs that decay inside the detector. We estimate the sensitivity of SND@LHC to probe scattering of leptophobic dark matter, and to detect decays of neutrino, scalar, and vector portal particles. Finally, we also compare and qualitatively analyze the potential of SND@LHC and FASER/FASER{ u} experiments for these searches.
The TauSpinner algorithm allows to modify the physics of the Monte Carlo generated samples due to the changed assumptions of event production dynamics, without re-generating events. To each event it attributes weights: the spin effects of tau-lepton
production or decay, or the production mechanism are modified. There is no need to repeat the detector response simulation. We document the extension to 2 to 4 processes in which the matrix elements for the parton-parton scattering amplitudes into a tau-lepton pair and two outgoing partons are used. Tree-level matrix elements for the Standard Model processes, including the Higgs boson production are used. Automatically generated codes by MadGraph5 have been adapted. Tests of the matrix elements, reweighting algorithm and numerical results are presented. For averaged tau lepton polarisation, we perform comparison of 2 to 2 and 2 to 4 matrix elements used to calculate the spin weight in pp to tau tau j j events. We show, that for events with tau-lepton pair close to the Z-boson peak, the tau-lepton polarisation calculated using 2 to 4 matrix elements is very close to the one calculated using 2 to 2 Born process only. For the m_(tautau) masses above the Z-boson peak, the effect from including 2 to 4 matrix elements is also marginal, however when restricting into subprocesses qq,q bar q to tau tau j j only, it can lead to a 10% difference on the predicted tau-lepton polarisation. Choice of electroweak scheme can have significant impact. The modification of the electroweak or strong interaction can be performed with the re-weighting technique. TauSpinner v.2.0.0, allows to introduce non-standard couplings for the Higgs boson and study their effects in the vector-boson-fusion. The discussion is relegated to forthcoming publications.
The discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, by the ATLAS and CMS experiments, was a success achieved with only a percent of the entire dataset foreseen for the LHC. It opened a landscape of possibilities in the study of Higgs boson properties, Electrow
eak Symmetry breaking and the Standard Model in general, as well as new avenues in probing new physics beyond the Standard Model. Six years after the discovery, with a conspicuously larger dataset collected during LHC Run 2 at a 13 TeV centre-of-mass energy, the theory and experimental particle physics communities have started a meticulous exploration of the potential for precision measurements of its properties. This includes studies of Higgs boson production and decays processes, the search for rare decays and production modes, high energy observables, and searches for an extended electroweak symmetry breaking sector. This report summarises the potential reach and opportunities in Higgs physics during the High Luminosity phase of the LHC, with an expected dataset of pp collisions at 14 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 ab$^{-1}$. These studies are performed in light of the most recent analyses from LHC collaborations and the latest theoretical developments. The potential of an LHC upgrade, colliding protons at a centre-of-mass energy of 27 TeV and producing a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 15 ab$^{-1}$, is also discussed.
We address the potential of measurements with boosted single-top final states at the high-luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) and possible future hadron colliders: the high-energy LHC (HE-LHC), and the future circular collider (FCC). As new physics examples to a
ssess the potential, we consider the search for $tbW$ anomalous couplings and for a weakly-coupled $W$ boson. The FCC would improve by a factor of two the sensitivity to anomalous couplings of the HL-LHC. For $W$ bosons, the FCC is sensitive to $W$ couplings $2-5$ times smaller than the HL-LHC in the mass range 2-4 TeV, and to masses up to 30 TeV in the case of Standard Model-like couplings.
