(Regular) pseudo-bosons versus bosons

We discuss in which sense the so-called {\em regular pseudo-bosons}, recently introduced by Trifonov and analyzed in some details by the author, are related to ordinary bosons. We repeat the same analysis also for {\em pseudo-bosons}, and we analyze the role played by certain intertwining operators, which may be bounded or not.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1106.011

Interference of composite bosons

We investigate multi-boson interference. A Hamiltonian is presented that treats pairs of bosons as a single composite boson. This Hamiltonian allows two pairs of bosons to interact as if they were two single composite bosons. We show that this leads to the composite bosons exhibiting novel interference effects such as Hong-Ou-Mandel interference. We then investigate generalizations of the formalism to the case of interference between two general composite bosons. Finally, we show how one can realize interference between composite bosons in the two atom Dicke model

Low Energy Theorems in N=1 Supersymmetric Theory

In N=1 supersymmetric theories, quasi Nambu-Goldstone (QNG) bosons appear in addition to ordinary Nambu-Goldstone (NG) bosons when the global symmetry G breaks down spontaneously. We investigate two-body scattering amplitudes of these bosons in the low-energy effective Lagrangian formalism. They are expressed by the curvature of Kahler manifold. The scattering amplitudes of QNG bosons are shown to coincide with those of NG bosons though the effective Lagrangian contains an arbitrary function, and those with odd number of QNG bosons all vanish.Comment: LaTeX, 18 pages, 3 figures, typos corrected, references adde

Composite Weak Bosons at the LHC

In a composite model of the weak bosons the p-wave bosons are studied. The state with the lowest mass is identified with the boson, which might have been detected recently at the LHC. Specific properties of these excited bosons are studied, in particular their decays into weak bosons, into photons and into leptons or quarks.Comment: 8 page

Search for non-SM Higgses at LEP

The four LEP experiments, ALEPH, DELPHI, L3 and OPAL, have searched for Higgs bosons predicted by a large number of extensions of the Standard Model. Flavor independent searches are presented for the h$^{0}$Z$^{0}$ process in which the h$^{0}$ decays hadronically. Search results are also presented for fermiophobic Higgs bosons, invisibly decaying Higgs bosons, charged Higgs bosons and the neutral Higgs bosons in the MSSM.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, to be published in the Proceedings of XXXVI Rencontres de Moriond: QCD, March 200

Composite Weak Bosons at the LHC

In a composite model of the weak bosons the p-wave bosons are studied. The state with the lowest mass is identified with the boson, which has been observed at the LHC. Specific properties of the excited bosons are studied, in particular their decays into weak bosons and photons. Such decays might have been observed recently with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider.Comment: 7 pages, no figure
