Interest has focussed recently on low energy implications of a nontrivial scale invariant sector of an effective field theory with an IR fixed point, manifest in terms of ``unparticles'' with peculiar properties. If unparticle stuff exists…
Scalars that carry lepton number can help mediate would-be lepton-number-violating processes, such as neutrinoless double $\beta$ decay or lepton-scattering-mediated nucleon-antinucleon conversion. Here we show that such new scalars can…
Two-loop electroweak corrections to the electron, muon, and tau lepton anomalous magnetic moments have been computed recently. Effects of hadronic contributions to the photon propagator in two-loop QED corrections have also been reanalysed.…
Dirac has predicted that the $g$ factor of an electron is strictly equal to 2 in the framework of relativistic quantum mechanics. However, later physicists have found that this factor can be slightly deviated from 2 (i.e., the problem of…
The very precise measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, recently released by the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab, can serve to set stringent constraints on new particles. If the observed 4$\sigma$ discrepancy from the…
The deviation of the measured value of the muon anomalous magnetic moment from the standard model prediction can be completely explained by mixing of the muon with extra vectorlike leptons, L and E, near the electroweak scale. This mixing…
Unparticles charged under a gauge group can contribute to the running of the gauge coupling. We show that a scalar unparticle of scaling dimension d contributes to the \beta function a term that is (2-d) times that from a scalar particle in…
We calculate in dimensions $D=2+\epsilon$ and in light-cone gauge (LCG) the perturbative ${\cal O}(g^4)$ contribution to a rectangular Wilson loop in the (t,x)-plane coming from diagrams with a self-energy correction in the vector…
A new scalar particle with generic couplings to the standard-model particles is a possible source for the lepton anomalous magnetic moment and the violation of the weak equivalence principle. Here, one-loop contributions to the lepton…
Motivated by the long-standing discrepancy between the Standard Model prediction and the experimental measurement of the muon magnetic dipole moment, we have recently proposed to interpret this muon $g-2$ anomaly in terms of the loop effect…
The use of extra dimensional scenarios as models for neutrino mass affects many low energy observables. We consider the implications of virtual bulk neutrinos in precision experiments of the anomalous magnetic moments of the muon and the…
Recently, a conceptually new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM), unparticle, has been proposed, where a hidden conformal sector is coupled to the SM sector through higher dimensional operators. In this setup, we investigate unparticle…
This brief Letter demonstrates that effects from a $\nc$ space-time geometry will measurably affect the value of $(g-2)_\mu$ inferred from the decay of the muon to an electron plus two neutrinos. If the scale of noncommutivity is ${\cal…
Models with vector-like leptons can strongly modify the lepton mass generation mechanism and lead to correlated effects in lepton-Higgs couplings and lepton dipole moments. Here we begin an analysis of higher-order corrections in such…
The experimental value of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, as well as the LHCb anomalies, point towards new physics coupled non-universally to muons and electrons. Working in extra dimensional theories, which solve the electroweak…
The action for a relativistic free particle of mass m receives a contribution $-m R(x,y)$ from a path of length R(x,y) connecting the events $x^i$ and $y^i$. Using this action in a path integral, one can obtain the Feynman propagator for a…
We investigate the impact of incorporating vector-like leptons into the Standard Model, aiming to address longstanding puzzles related to the anomalous magnetic moments of the muon and electron while maintaining consistency with neutrino…
The stringent experimental bound on $\mu \rightarrow e \gamma$ is compatible with a simultaneous and sizable new physics contribution to the electron and muon anomalous magnetic moments $(g-2)_\ell$ ($\ell=e,\,\mu$), only if we assume a…
We study the effects of an anomalous Z' boson on the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon (g-2), and especially the impact of its axial coupling. We mainly evaluate the negative contribution to (g-2) of such couplings at one-loop and look…
The large momentum expansion for the inverse propagator of the auxiliary field $\lambda(x)$ in the conformally invariant O(N) vector model is calculated to leading order in 1/N, in a strip-like geometry with one finite dimension of length…
