In addition to well-motivated scenarios like supersymmetric particles, the so-called exotic matter (quirky matter, hidden valley models, etc.) can show up at the LHC and ILC, by exploring the spectroscopy of high mass levels and decay…
A non-standard CP-odd Higgs boson could induce a slight (but observable) lepton universality breaking in Upsilon leptonic decays. Moreover, mixing between such a pseudoscalar Higgs boson and $\eta_b$ states might shift their mass levels,…
