 +**Motivations and goal** 
 + 
 +  * Exotic decays such as $\rho \to T \bar t$ can eat branching ratio from standard search channels (dilepton, dibosons), rendering these direct searches less sensitive (see e.g. [[https://​arxiv.org/​pdf/​1511.01101.pdf]] Fig. 3) 
 +  * Investigate the signatures arising from the decay of a heavy bosons (spin 0 and spin 1) in SM quarks and VLQs, e.g. Z'​->​ VLQ top, or extra light scalars, e.g. Z' -> Z a
  
-  * Investigate the signatures arising from the decay of a heavy bosons (spin 0 and spin 1) in SM quarks and VLQs, e.g. Z'​->​ VLQ top, ora extra light scalars, e.g. Z' -> Z a 
-  * From the polarization of the top arising from the decay is it possible to infer the representation to which the heavy boson belongs, i.e. predict the presence of other states?

-  * spin 1 color singlet+  * Categorize the possible decays of the identified resonances. This was done for VLQ in Les Houches 2015

 + 
 +  * Check the sensitivity of SM searches. For example the $\rho \to T \bar t \to Z t \bar t$ has the same final state of the SM $t\bar t Z$ search 
 +  * Check the sensitivity of single production mode. Also in this case the final state can be the same. However single production searches usually exploit a forward jet, which is not present here
