We study the scattering of longitudinally polarized W bosons in extensions of the Standard Model where anomalous Higgs couplings to gauge sector and higher-order operators emerge. These couplings should be thought of as the low-energy remnants of some new dynamics involving the electroweak symmetry breaking sector. By imposing unitarity and causality constraints on the WW scattering...

A summary of Run I analyses from ATLAS and CMS in boosted topologies is presented, focusing on hadronic final states. A brief overview of jet substructure techniques will also be presented, as well as prospects for Run II.

The double SM-like $h$-boson production in the models with isospin-triplet
scalars is studied. It is shown that in the see-saw type II model
the mode with an intermediate heavy scalar, $pp\to H+X\to 2h+X$, may
have the cross section which is comparable with that in the Standard
Model. In the Georgi-Machacek model this cross section could be much
larger than in SM since the...

Searches for supersymmetric models with a compressed mass spectrum are presented using data samples corresponding to integrated luminosities of 19.4–19.7 fb$^{-1}$, collected at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. This class of model is challenging to detect experimentally, primarily due to low-momentum SM particles arising from decay chains involving SUSY...

Several supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of new particles whose lifetime can be comparable or longer than the time of flight through a collider detector. The direct detection of these particles, or of their decays inside the detector, requires dedicated experimental techniques.
This talk presents recent ATLAS searches for supersymmetric particles with long...

I will present the latest results of searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model (non-SUSY) from the ATLAS and CMS collaborations. I will also discuss prospects for searches for exotic phenomena during the LHC Run 2.
