A comparative study of the exclusive rare $B_{c}\rightarrow D_{s}^{\ast}\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ ($\ell=\mu, \tau$) decays has been made in the minimal supersymmetric models (MSSM) and the SUSY SO(10) GUT models. In this context, various physical…
The Standard-Model interpretation of the ratios of charged and neutral B-> pi K rates, R_c and R_n, respectively, points towards a puzzling picture. Since these observables are affected significantly by colour-allowed electroweak (EW)…
We investigate quark flavor signals in three different supersymmetric models, the minimal supergravity, the SU(5) SUSY GUT with right handed neutrinos, and the minimal supersymmetric standard model with U(2) flavor symmetry, in order to…
We analyse the contributions to the charge asymmetry in $K^\pm\to\pi^\pm\ell^+\ell^-$ decays induced by gluino-exchange diagrams in the context of supersymmetric models with generic flavour couplings. We show that sizeable deviations with…
We review the theoretical and experimental status of minimal grand unified theories (GUTS), contrasting the failure of minimal non-supersymmetric $SU(5)$ with the success of the minimal supersymmetric $SU(5)$ and minimal supersymmetric…
The impact of the new tau decay data on the various $\tau$ puzzles and on the possibility of approximate supersymmetry is discussed. The most economical solution of the problems in $\tau$ decay and that favored by recent new data supports…
In this paper, we reexamine the new physics contributions to seven well measured $B \to PP$ decays in the standard model (SM) and the general two-Higgs-doublet model (model III) and compare the theoretical predictions with the new data.…
We explore the phenomenological predictions of a supersymmetric standard model, with a large extra dimension and unifying gauge couplings. The modified five dimensional renormalisation group equations make it possible to obtain light,…
The measured value of A_b, the Z \bar bb asymmetry parameter, disagrees with the Standard Model at 99% confidence level. If genuine the discrepancy could indicate new interactions unique to third generation quarks, implying enhanced Z…
The recent measurement of a_\mu =\frac{g_\mu -2}{2} by the E821 Collaboration at Brookhaven deviates from the quoted Standard Model (SM) central value prediction by 2.6\sigma. The difference between SM theory and experiment may be easily…
Recent measurements of the time-dependent CP asymmetry of the B -> phi K_S decay give results whose central values differ from standard model expectations. It is shown how such data can be used to identify new physics contributions in a…
We study supersymmetric (SUSY) flipped $SU(5)\times U(1)$ unification, focussing on its predictions for proton decay, fermion masses and gravitational waves. We performed a two-loop renormalisation group analysis and showed that the SUSY…
Supersymmetry, a new symmetry that relates bosons and fermions in particle physics, still escapes observation. Search for SUSY is one of the main aims of the recently launched Large Hadron Collider. The other possible manifestation of SUSY…
Local supersymmetry (SUSY) provides an attractive framework for the incorporation of gravity and unification of gauge interactions within Grand Unified Theories (GUTs). Its breakdown can lead to a variety of models with softly broken SUSY…
We try to construct a model in which supersymmetry and grand unified gauge symmetry are dynamically broken at the same time. In this model SUSY breaking is mediated mainly by massive vector multiplet, and a new solution for the mu problem…
Constraining CKM parameters from charmless hadronic B decays requires methods for addressing the hadronic uncertainties. A complete technique is presented, using relations between amplitudes in the B, Bs -> pipi, Kpi, KK system obtained in…
New Physics searches at the LHC have increased significantly lower bounds on unknown particle masses. This increases quite dramatically the tension in the interpretation of the data: low energy precision data which are predicted accurately…
