We compute for the first time QCD corrections to the rare decays B -> X_{d,s} nu nubar, B_{d,s} -> l^+ l^-, K -> pi nu nubar and K_L -> mu^+ mu^-, where l=e or mu, in the context of a supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (SM) with…

We study the charged Higgs effects on the decays of $B^{-} \to \tau \bar\nu_{\tau}$ and $\bar B\to P(V) \ell \bar\nu_{\ell}$ with $P=\pi^{+},D^{+}$ and $V=\rho^{+},D^{*+}$. We concentrate on the minimal supersymmetric standard model with…
We investigate the semileptonic and leptonic B decays, B to D^{(*)} tau nu and B to tau nu in our multi-Higgs-doublet models, while keeping in mind the enhancement of the top forward-backward (FB) asymmetry (A^t_{FB}) at the Tevatron. In…
We investigate the prospects for the discovery of neutral Higgs bosons with a pair of muons by direct searches at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) as well as by indirect searches in the rare decay $B_s \to \mu^+\mu^-$ at the Fermilab…
We explain the 2.3 sigma deviation in the recent measurements of the neutral B mesons decay into muon pairs from the standard model prediction in the framework of supersymmetric grand unified models using anti-symmetric coupling as a new…
We demonstrate how the transverse tau tau spin correlations can be used to determine whether a decaying Higgs boson is a mixed CP eigenstate, thereby directly probe the presence of CP violation in the neutral Higgs boson sector. We…
A search for exotic decays of the Higgs boson (H) with a mass of 125 GeV to a pair of light pseudoscalars $\mathrm{a}_1$ is performed in final states where one pseudoscalar decays to two b quarks and the other to a pair of muons or $\tau$…

In this letter we demonstrate a new source for large flavor-changing neutral currents within the minimal supersymmetric standard model. At moderate to large tan(beta), it is no longer possible to diagonalize the masses of the quarks in the…

A search for a heavy Higgs boson H decaying into the observed Higgs boson h with a mass of 125 GeV and another Higgs boson h$_\mathrm{S}$ is presented. The h and h$_\mathrm{S}$ bosons are required to decay into a pair of tau leptons and a…
The tau -> mu nu nu branching ratio has been measured using data collected from 1990 to 1995 by the OPAL detector at the LEP collider. The resulting value of B(tau -> mu nu nu) = 0.1734 +- 0.0009(stat) +- 0.0006(syst) has been used in…
We study B_s --> mu+ mu- in the context of the R-parity violating minimal supergravity in the high tan beta regime. We find that the lowest value of the branching ratio can go well below the present LHCb sensitivity and hence B_s --> mu+…
