Objective
Our research project deals with the application of Quantum Field Theory to the phenomenology of High Energy particle Physics; more concretely, of the Higgs boson physics. The Higgs boson is the last building block of the Standard Model that is still waiting for experimental confirmation, and one has reasons to believe that there may be physics Beyond the Standard Model. Even if a neutral Higgs boson is discovered, a crucial question will remain still open: It is the Higgs particle of the Standard Model or, contrary, there is an extended Higgs structure Beyond the Standard Model. It is our aim to investigate quantum corrections to process that will be relevant for the intensive phenomenological studies needed to investigate Higgs boson physics in the next generation of planned colliders, such as the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. We will address the understanding of the physical mechanism cause of the symmetry breaking, mechanism responsible to generate the masses of the fundamental particles and we shall investigate whether some physics beyond the Standard Model exist, and the means of disentangle it. One of our main interests is to study process involving neutral and charged Higgs bosons that could modify the conclusions about the existence of these particles. To develop this research project we plan to use both the radiative corrections method and the effective Lagrangians techniques. The applicant and the host institution's scientists will benefit each other from the experience of the other part. This collaboration should allow to participate actively integrated in working groups for studies of future high energy colliders.
