Considerations on the complementary time-dependent coordinate transformations emboding Lorentz transformation (LT) show that the relativistic energy-momentum relationship, implicitly the relativistic mass and energy, do not depend on the…
In the case of the process $e^+e^-\to\mu^+\mu^-$, we study the sensitivity to either $Z^\prime$ or anomalous gauge coupling effects of two new observables, $\sigma_+$ and $\sigma_-$, conveniently defined for such kind of analysis. We…
We consider a gauged $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ extension of the left-right symmetric theory in order to simultaneously explain neutrino mass, mixing and the muon anomalous magnetic moment. We get sizeable contribution from the interaction of…
A modification of the accepted relativistic energy momentum relation is suggested. The new relation allows massive particles to have a maximum velocity c(m) greater than the velocity of light c. The effect of the modification suggested here…
We identify the two scalar leptoquarks capable of generating sign-dependent contributions to leptonic magnetic moments, $R_2\sim (\mathbf{3}, \mathbf{2}, 7/6)$ and $S_1\sim (\mathbf{3}, \mathbf{1}, -1/3)$, as favoured by current…
I argue that the linearity of quantum mechanics is an emergent feature at the Planck scale, along with the manifold structure of space-time. In this regime the usual causality violation objections to nonlinearity do not apply, and nonlinear…
The tau anomalous magnetic moment (a_tau) and electric dipole moment (d_tau) have not yet been observed. The present bounds on their values are of order 10^-2 and 10^-17 e*cm, respectively. We propose to measure a_tau with a precision of…
By introducing a set of new triplet leptons (with nonzero hypercharge) that can Yukawa couple to their Standard Model counterparts, new sources of tree-level flavor changing currents are induced via mixing. In this work, we study some of…
Power laws in physics have until now always been associated with a scale invariance originating from the absence of a length scale. Recently, an emergent invariance even in the presence of a length scale has been predicted by the…
We present a model-independent analysis of rare B decays, $B \to K^{(*)} \nu \nu$. The effect of possible new physics is written in terms of dimension-6 four-fermi interactions. The lepton number violating scalar- and tensor-type…
In contrast with $B^0-\bar B^0$, $B_s-\bar B_s$ mixing where the standard model (SM) contributions overwhelm that of new physics beyond standard model (BSM), a measured relatively large $D^0-\bar D^0$ mixing where the SM contribution is…
Updated standard model predictions for $D_{(s)} \to P l^+ l^-$, $l=e,\mu$, $P=\pi,K$ and inclusive decays are presented. Model-independent constraints on $|\Delta C|=|\Delta U|=1$ Wilson coefficients are worked out. New physics (NP)…
We discuss the sensitivity of the processes $e^+e^-\to t\bar t$ and $e^+e^-\to b\bar b$ to special sets of operators describing residual New Physics effects. Experimental data in this sector together with those expected in the bosonic…
Following a previous proposal, lepton number is considered as the result of a spontaneously broken non-Abelian gauge $SU(2)_N$ symmetry. New fermions are added to support this new symmetry, the spontaneous breaking of which allows these new…
Latest measurement of the ratio of branching ratios $R_D = \mathcal B(B \to D\,\tau\,\nu)/\mathcal B(B \to D\,l\,\nu)$ and $R_{D^{\ast}} = \mathcal B(B \to D^{\ast}\,\tau\,\nu)/\mathcal B(B \to D^{\ast}\,l\,\nu)$, where $l$ is either an…
This note is a pedagogical mini review on the muon anomalous magnetic moment ($g-2$), translated and adapted from our article published in Modern Physics 4 (2021) 40-47. The contents include: (i) The magnetic moment of an electric-current…
We review how the muon anomalous magnetic moment ($g-2$) and the quest for lepton flavor violation are intimately correlated. Indeed the decay $\mu \to e \gamma$ is induced by the same amplitude for different choices of in- and outgoing…
In three very recent papers, (an initial paper by Morishima and Futamase, and two subsequent papers by Morishima, Futamase, and Shimizu), it has been argued that the observed experimental anomaly in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon…
Characteristic patterns of cosmic neutrino spectrum reported by the IceCube collaboration and long-standing inconsistency between theory and experiment in muon anomalous magnetic moment are simultaneously explained by an extra leptonic…
The BaBar, Belle, and LHCb collaborations have reported evidence for new physics in $B\to D\tau\nu$ and $B\to D^*\tau\nu$ of approximately $3.8\sigma$. There is also the long lasting discrepancy of about $3\sigma$ in the anomalous magnetic…
