The lepton-number violating process e p \to nu_e l l' X mediated by Majorana neutrinos is studied for the HERA collider for (l l') = (e tau), (mu tau), (mu mu) and (tau tau). Only the muonic decay of the tau is considered. The direct limit…

We present a general purpose Monte Carlo program for the calculation of the radiative muon decay $\mu\to e\,\nu \bar{\nu}\gamma$ and the radiative decays $\tau\to e\, \nu \bar{\nu}\gamma$ and $\tau\to\mu\,\nu \bar{\nu}\gamma$ at…
We have estimated the limiting branching ratio of the R-parity violating (RPV) decay of the lighter top squark, $\tilde t_1 \ar l^+ d$ ($l=e$ or $\mu $ and d is a down type quark of any flavor), as a function of top squark mass($\MST$) for…
We search for lepton flavor and lepton number violating tau decays into a lepton (ell = electron or muon) and two charged mesons (h,h' = pi^\pm or K^\pm), tau- -> ell-h+h'- and tau- -> ell+h-h'-, using 671 fb^{-1} of data collected with the…
The LHCb collaboration has recently presented their result on R_K = BR(B+ -> K+ mu+ mu-)/ BR(B+ -> K+ e+ e-) for the dilepton invariant mass bin m_{ll}^2 = 1-6 GeV^2 (l = mu, e). The measurement shows an intriguing 2.6 sigma deviation from…

A search for a narrow Z$'$ gauge boson with a mass between 5 and 70 GeV resulting from an $L_{\mu}$ $-$ $L_{\tau}$ $U(1)$ local gauge symmetry is reported. Theories that predict such a particle have been proposed as an explanation of…
The majoron, a neutrinophilic pseudo-Goldstone boson conventionally arising in the context of neutrino mass models, can damp neutrino free-streaming and inject additional energy density into neutrinos prior to recombination. The combination…
Using the data sample of an integrated luminosity of 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ taken at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV, we search for the Majorana neutrino in the lepton number violating decays $D\to K \pi e^+ e^+$. No significant signal is…

We investigate a mechanism for spontaneous R-parity breaking in a class of extensions of the minimal supersymmetric standard model with an extra Abelian gauge symmetry which is a linear combination of B-L and weak hypercharge. Both U(1)_X…
Extant anomalies in several semileptonic $B$-meson decays argue for physics beyond the Standard Model. Measurements of both neutral-current decays (such as $R_K$, $R_{K^*}$ and $B_s\rightarrow \phi\mu\mu$) as well as charged-current ones-…

The muon neutrinos from the Gamma Ray Bursts(GRBs) during their propagation oscillate to tau neutrinos. The tau neutrinos can be identified by the appearance of tau leptons which decay to muons below the detector. We examine the prospect of…
