We explore here a new mechanism by which the out of equilibrium decay of heavy gravitinos, followed by possible R-parity violating decays in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) can generate the baryon asymmetry of the universe.…
B meson semi-leptonic rare decays are sensitive to new physics beyond standard model. We study the $B^{-}\to \pi^{-}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ process and investigate the Majorana neutrino contribution to its decay width. The constraints on the…
We extend the Zee model, where tiny neutrino masses are generated at the one loop level, to a supersymmetric model with R-parity conservation. It is found that the neutrino mass matrix can be consistent with the neutrino oscillation data…
We review the physics of purely leptonic decays of $\pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D^{\pm}$, $D_s^\pm$, and $B^\pm$ pseudoscalar mesons. The measured decay rates are related to the product of the relevant weak-interaction-based CKM matrix element of…
The most general Lorentz invariant spin-correlation functions for $\tau ^{-}\rightarrow \rho ^{-}\nu ,a_1^{-}\nu ,K^{*-}\nu , \pi ^{-}\nu ,K^{-}\nu $ are expressed in terms of eight semi-leptonic parameters. They are physically defined in…
An intrinsic parity violating hadronic tau lepton decay is investigated. $\tau \to \pi \pi \eta \nu$ is the process in which the dominant contribution to the amplitude is due to the intrinsic parity violation. To predict the hadronic…
We consider a scenario where a supersymmetric model has multiple dark matter particles. Adding a U(1)' gauge symmetry is a well-motivated extension of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). It can cure the problems of the MSSM…
We set up a suitable renormalization programme for the one-loop computation of the decay rate Gamma(H==>hh) in the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model. We then perform an explicit diagrammatic calculation, including the…
We compute the photon asymmetry $B_\gamma$ for near threshold parity violating (PV) pion photoproduction through sub-leading order. We show that sub-leading contributions involve a new combination of PV couplings not included in previous…
We consider the bremsstrahlung and model-dependent contributions to the radiative decay $\tau^- \to \pi^-\pi^0\nu_{\tau}\gamma$ in the context of a meson dominance model. We focus on several observables related to this decay, including the…
We study CP violation in semi-leptonic $\tau$ decays and we determine the conditions necessary to be able to define a observable CP asymmetry. We apply these conditions in both models, the standard model for the electroweak interactions and…
We analyze the forward-backward asymmetry of the decays B to (pi,K) l^+ l^- with l = mu or tau in the framework of the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model. We find that, the asymmetry is enhanced at large tan beta and depends…
We quantify the ability of B-Factories to observe supersymmetric contributions to the rare decays B -> X_s \gamma and B -> X_s l+ l-. A global fit to the Wilson coefficients which contribute to these decays is performed from Monte Carlo…
In the framework of the minimal ${SU}(3)_C\otimes {SU}(3)_L \otimes {U}(1)_N$ model, the lepton-flavour-violating decay $\pi^+ \ra \mu^- \nu_\mu e^+ e^+ $ is calculated without directly invoking lepton mixing. The branching ratio for this…
Deviations from the standard model prediction have been observed in several leptonic and semileptonic $B$ meson decays to $\tau\nu$ final states mediated via $b \to u$ and $b \to c$ charged current interactions. The measured value of ratio…
We have calculated the ratios $R_{e/\mu}^{(P)} \equiv \Gamma(P \to e \bar{\nu}_e [\gamma])/ \Gamma(P \to \mu \bar{\nu}_\mu [\gamma])$ ($P=\pi,K$) in Chiral Perturbation Theory up to $\mathcal{O}(e^2p^4)$, finding $R_{e/\mu}^{(\pi)} =…
We propose a new set of supersymmetric benchmark scenarios, taking into account the constraints from LEP, b to s gamma, g_mu - 2 and cosmology. We work in the context of the constrained MSSM (CMSSM) with universal soft supersymetry-breaking…
The simplest gauge theories for the conservation of R-parity in supersymmetry are discussed. We show how the minimal theory based on the B-L gauge symmetry predicts that R-parity must be spontaneously broken at the TeV scale. The most…

Searches for pair production of supersymmetric particles under the assumption that R-parity is not conserved are presented, based on data recorded by the DELPHI detector in 1998 from e+e- collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 189 GeV.…
