Precise measurements of the lepton properties provide stringent tests of the Standard Model and accurate determinations of its parameters. We overview the present status of tau physics, highlighting the most recent developments, and discuss…
Supersymmetry (SUSY) with a long-lived stau is an attractive scenario in the LHC experiments because one can directly observe stau tracks in each SUSY event, and thus precise measurements of SUSY particle masses are possible. In this…
We study unconventional signatures of the NMSSM (the MSSM with an additional gauge singlet) with a singlino LSP. Compared to sparticle production processes in the MSSM, these consist in additional cascades (one or two additional l+ l-, tau+…
Recent results from Belle and BaBar Collaborations hint at a small $\sin2\phi_1$, while the measured $B\to\pi\pi$ rate also seems to be on the low side. Supersymmetric (SUSY) models with down squark mixings can account for the deficits in…
We study new physics effects on B decay processes including a final $\tau$ particle, namely $B \to D \tau \nu$ and $B \to \tau \nu$. An important feature of these processes is that a charged Higgs boson can contribute to the decay amplitude…
A search for new phenomena in final states with hadronically decaying tau leptons, $b$-jets, and missing transverse momentum is presented. The analyzed dataset comprises $pp$~collision data at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt s = 13$ TeV…
In a (0,1) supersymmetric (SUSY) six-dimensional gauge theory, a gauge fermion gives rise to box anomalies. These anomalies are completely canceled by assuming a vector multiplet of (1,1) SUSY. With a T^2/Z_3 orbifold compactification of…
We investigate the phenomenological consequences of string models wherein the MSSM resides on a D-brane, and the hypercharge gaugino mass is generated in a geometrically separated hidden sector. This hypercharged anomaly-mediated SUSY…

We investigate the phenomenology of minimal four-family MSSM supergravity theories containing an additional generation of heavy fermions along with their superpartners. We demand: gauge coupling constant unification at high energy scales;…
For large values of the minimal supergravity model parameter $\tan\beta$, the tau lepton and the bottom quark Yukawa couplings become large, leading to reduced masses of $\tau$-sleptons and $b$-squarks relative to their first and second…
We analyze the decays of charginos, neutralinos, gluinos and the first/second generation squarks in the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, focusing on the three-body decays in scenarios where the ratio $\tan \beta$ of…
In the MSSM, the Higgs couplings to down-type quarks and leptons, normalized with respect to their corresponding Standard Model values, coincide at tree-level and this degeneracy is only slightly broken at the quantum level. Motivated by…

$1+1$-dimensional $SU(N)$ gauge theory coupled to an adjoint Majorana fermion, also known as adjoint QCD$_2$, has the surprising feature that at fermion mass $\sqrt{\frac{g^2 N}{2 \pi}}$ it exhibits supersymmetry. In this paper, we obtain a…
