We calculate the dominant three body Higgs decays, $H to W^+W^-(Z^0, gamma)$ and $H to toverline{t}(Z^0,gamma ,g)$, in the Standard Model. We find that the branching ratios of these decays are of the order of few percent for large Higgs masses. We comment on the behaviour of the partial decay width $Gamma (H to toverline{b}W^-)$ below the $toverline{t}$ threshold. Numerical results of the following three body top decays, $t to W^+b(gamma ,g,Z^0)$ and $t to W^+bH$, are also given. We discuss the feasibility of observing these Higgs and top decays at future high energy colliders.

Nonzero neutrino masses imply the existence of degrees of freedom and interactions beyond those in the Standard Model. A powerful indicator of what these might be is the nature of the massive neutrinos: Dirac fermions versus Majorana fermions. While addressing the nature of neutrinos is often associated with searches for lepton-number violation, there are several other features that distinguish Majorana from Dirac fermions. Here, we compute in great detail the kinematics of the daughters of the decays into charged-leptons and neutrinos of hypothetical heavy neutral leptons at rest. We allow for the decay to be mediated by the most general four-fermion interaction Lagrangian. We demonstrate, for example, that when the daughter charged-leptons have the same flavor or the detector is insensitive to their charges, polarized Majorana-fermion decays have zero forward/backward asymmetry in the direction of the outgoing neutrino (relative to the parent spin), whereas Dirac-fermion decays can have large asymmetries. Going beyond studying forward/backward asymmetries, we also explore the fully-differential width of the three-body decays. It contains a wealth of information not only about the nature of the new fermions but also the nature of the interactions behind their decays.
We evaluate all two-body decay modes of the heavy scalar top quark in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with complex parameters (cMSSM) and no generation mixing. The evaluation is based on a full one-loop calculation of all decay channels, al so including hard QED and QCD radiation. The renormalization of the complex parameters is described in detail. The dependence of the heavy scalar top quark decay on the relevant cMSSM parameters is analyzed numerically, including also the decay to Higgs bosons and another scalar quark or to a top quark and the lightest neutralino. We find sizable contributions to many partial decay widths and branching ratios. They are roughly of O(10%) of the tree-level results, but can go up to 30% or higher. These contributions are important for the correct interpretation of scalar top quark decays at the LHC and, if kinematically allowed, at the ILC. The evaluation of the branching ratios of the heavy scalar top quark will be implemented into the Fortran code FeynHiggs.

We discuss the rare decay of the top quark into a pair of same charge leptons (with identical or different flavors), a b quark and a (real or virtual) W-. The above process proceeds only if the exchanged neutrino N is of the Majorana type. This decay is the neutrinoless double b decay of the top. We find measurable values for its rate at the LHC with luminosity of 100 inverse fb. Furthermore, we consider an interaction of charged Higgs bosons with N which leads to lepton number violating processes such as pp to l+ N to l+ l+ H-, exhibiting spectacular events of the type: l+ l+ b b(bar) + 2 jets.
One way to probe new physics beyond standard model is to check the correlation among higher dimension operators in effective field theory. We examine the strong correlation between the processes of $pprightarrow tHq$ and $pprightarrow tq$ which both depend on the same three operators. The correlation indicates that, according to the data of $pprightarrow tq$, $sigma_{tHq}=big[106.8 pm 64.8big]~{rm fb}$ which is far below the current upper limit $sigma_{tHq}leq 900~{rm fb}$.

Experiment shows that the top quark is far heavier than the other elementary fermions. This finding has stimulated research on theories of electroweak and flavor symmetry breaking that include physics beyond the standard model. Efforts to accommodate a heavy top quark within existing frameworks have revealed constraints on model-building. Other investigations have started from the premise that a large top quark mass could signal a qualitative difference between the top quark and other fermions, perhaps in the form of new interactions peculiar to the top quark. Such new dynamics may also help answer existing questions about electroweak and flavor physics. This talk explores the implications of the heavy top quark in the context of weakly-coupled (e.g. SUSY) and strongly-coupled (e.g. technicolor) theories of electroweak symmetry breaking.
