Quartic Gauge Boson Interactions and Electroweak Symmetry Breaking

摘要

I review the recent progress in studying the anomalous electroweak quar-tic gauge boson couplings (QGBCs) at the LHC and the next generation high energy e~(±)e~- linear colliders (LCs). The main focus is put onto the strong electroweak symmetry breaking scenario in which the non-decoupling guarantees sizable new physics effects for the QGBCs. After commenting upon the current low energy indirect bounds and summarizing the theoretical patterns of QGBCs predicted by the typical resonanceon-resonance models, we review our systematic model-independent analysis on bounding them via WW-fusion and WW Z/ZZZ-production. The interplay of the two production mechanisms and the important role of the beam-polarization at the LCs are emphasized. The same physics may be similarly and better studied at a multi-TeV muon collider with high luminosity.
