To explain the anomalously large decay rate of $\Sigma^+\to p+\mu^+\mu^-$, it was proposed that a new mechanism where a light CP-odd pseudoscalar boson of $m_{A_1^0}=214.3$ MeV makes a crucial contribution. Later, some authors have studied…
Discovered in 2012, the Higgs boson has opened a new window on nature. The latest searches for its rare and non-Standard Model decays with the ATLAS detector at the LHC are presented. They represent a promising probe of the 1st and 2nd…
A search for a new pseudoscalar $a$-boson produced in events with a top-quark pair, where the $a$-boson decays into a pair of muons, is performed using $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV $pp$ collision data collected with the ATLAS detector at the LHC,…
Despite dark matter abundance, its nature remains elusive. Many searches of dark matter particles are carried out using different technologies either via direct detection, indirect detection, or collider searches. In this work, the…
In the LHCb detector at CERN, decays of $\chi_b(3P)$ meson to $\Upsilon(1S)\gamma$ and $\Upsilon(2S)\gamma$ are reported at centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt s=7$ and 8 TeV. Following the success of the assignment of…

In the last decades, the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics has been extensively tested and confirmed, with the announced discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 being the last missing puzzle piece. Even though since then the search for…
The CMS collaboration has reported a measurement of $\Upsilon$ decays to ditaus using $61.9~{\rm fb}^{-1}$ of scouting data. If interpreted as the decay of $\Upsilon(1S,2S,3S)$, the measured ditau rate is more than ten times that seen in…

Recent BaBar limits on $\br(\Upsilon(3S)\to \gam a\to \gam \tau^+\tau^-)$ and $\br(\Upsilon(3S)\to \gam a\to \gam \mu^+\mu^-)$ provide increased constraints on the $a b\anti b$ coupling of a CP-odd Higgs boson, $a$, with…

New light bosons that couple weakly to the standard model (SM) particles are predicted in various extensions of the standard model (BSM). Examples include supersymmetric (SUSY) theories with extended Higgs sectors or with a hidden valleys…
