It is shown that, in some cases, the effect of discrete distributions of flux lines in quantum mechanics can be associated with the effect of continuous distributions of magnetic fields with special symmetries. In particular, flux lines…
This paper reviews the theoretical predictions for and the experimental measurements of the anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments of the tau lepton. In particular, recent analyses of the $\eettg$ process from the L3 and OPAL…
Inclusive semileptonic $B\to X_c \ell \bar{\nu}_\ell$ decays, where $\ell = \mu,e$, are by now standard candles in the determination of the CKM element $|V_{cb}|$. These determinations rely on the heavy-quark expansion and use moments of…
Upcoming experiments will improve the sensitivity to $\mu\to e$ processes by several orders of magnitude, and could observe lepton flavour-changing contact interactions for the first time. In this paper, we investigate what could be learned…
Contributions of hadronic effects to the muonium physics and anomalous magnetic moment of muon are considered. Special attention is paid to higher-order effects and the uncertainty related to the hadronic contribution to the hyperfine…

We use spin correlations to constrain anomalous $\tau$-lepton couplings at the LHC including its anomalous magnetic moment, electric dipole moment and weak dipole moments. Single spin correlations are ideal to probe interference terms…
The new results on the muon anomalous magnetic moment (AMM) published by Fermilab in 2021, did not lead to a reduction of its long-pending deviation from the Standard Model (SM) value by more than 4$\sigma$. The explanation of this…
We consider lepton-antilepton annihilation into a fermion-antifermion pair at variable c.m. energy. We propose for this process a simple parametrization of the virtual effects of the most general model of new physics of…
The nonlinear dynamical response of Mn$_{12}$ single-molecule magnets is experimentally found to be very large, quite insensitive to the spin-lattice coupling constant, and displaying peaks reversed with respect to classical…
In recent years, the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon has triggered a lot of activity in the lattice QCD community because a persistent tension of about $3.5~\sigma$ is observed between the phenomenological estimate and the Brookhaven…
Present limits on neutrino masses are briefly reviewed, along with cosmological and astrophysical hints from dark matter, solar and atmospheric neutrino observations that suggest neutrino masses. These would imply many possible new…
The leading hadronic contributions to the anomalous magnetic moments of the electron and the $\tau$-lepton are determined by a four-flavour lattice QCD computation with twisted mass fermions. The continuum limit is taken and systematic…
We review a novel model-independent approach to the analysis of new-physics effects in the $s\to u\ell^-\bar\nu$ transitions. We apply it to (semi)leptonic kaon decays and study their complementarity with pion and hyperon $\beta$ decays or…
In the L_{\mu} - L_{\tau} model the 3.6$\sigma$ discrepancy between the predicted and measured values of the anomalous magnetic moment of positive muons can be explained by the existence of a new dark boson Z' with a mass in the sub-GeV…
The long-sought "magnetic monopole" appears to be -- not a fermion distinct from the electrons and quarks -- but a charge carried by the known electrons and the quarks themselves. Similarly to the "Z" charge of electroweak theory, however,…
The leptonic branching fractions of the tau lepton are sensitive to anomalous charged current interactions. We use recent experimental measurements to determine the weak charged current magnetic and electric dipole moments and the Michel…
The excess in electron recoil events reported recently by the XENON1T experiment may be interpreted as evidence for a sizable transition magnetic moment $\mu_{\nu_e\nu_\mu}$ of Majorana neutrinos. We show the consistency of this scenario…
