We consider a deformation of the Third Family Hypercharge Model, which arguably makes the model more natural. Additional non-zero charges of the spontaneously broken, family-dependent $U(1)_F$ gauge symmetry are assigned to the second…
There are indications of a possible breakdown of the standard model, suggesting that $\tau$ lepton interactions violate flavor universality. BABAR, Belle and LHCb report high ratios of $B\to D^{(*)}\tau\nu$. There are long-standing excesses…
We argue that large non-decoupling effects of heavy neutrinos can appear naturally in manifestly left-right symmetric models due to the minimization conditions of the scalar potential and the structure of vev's imposed by phenomenology. We…
We explore Two Higgs Doublet Models with non-standard flavor structures. In analogy to the four, well studied, models with natural flavor conservation (type 1, type 2, lepton-specific, flipped), we identify four models that preserve an…
Supersymmetric contributions to all leptonic electromagnetic dipole operators have essentially identical diagramatic structure. With approximate slepton universality this allows the muon anomalous magnetic moment to be related to the…
We explore models where single new exotic states interact with the Standard Model through an asymmetric Standard Model portal with couplings to at least one gluon and one lepton. We consider the complete set of effective operators up to…
Leptophobic Z' gauge bosons can appear in models with an E_6 gauge symmetry. We show that flavour-changing neutral currents can be generated in some of these models due to the mixing of the ordinary d_R, s_R and b_R quark fields with the…
In this paper, we present the one-loop radiative corrections to the electroweak precision observable $\Delta \rho$ coming from the $I_W=1$ multiplet excited leptons. We have calculated the couplings of the exotic lepton triplet to the…
We investigate the possibility that baryogenesis occurs during the weak phase transition in a minimal extension of the Standard Model which contains extra neutral leptons and conserves total lepton number. The necessary CP-violating phases…
Motivated by the flavor anomalies in $b \to s$ transitions, we embed minimal models with a $Z'$ gauge boson, vector-like fermions, and a singlet scalar in the framework of trans-Planckian asymptotic safety. The presence of a fixed point in…
The production and decay of exotic leptons are discussed in the context of the vector singlet, vector doublet and fer\-mion mirror-fer\-mion models, at c.m. energies $\sqrt{s}=190GeV$ (LEP II) and $\sqrt{s}=500GeV$ (NLC). The model…
Doubly charged excited leptons give rise to interesting signatures for physics beyond the standard model at the present Large Hadron Collider. These exotic states are introduced in extended isospin multiplets which couple to the ordinary…
Lepton family number violation processes arise in the $SU(6)_L \otimes U(1)_Y$ model due to the presence of an extra neutral gauge boson, Z$'$, with family changing couplings, and due to the fact that this model demands the existence of…
Processes $\tau\rightarrow l\gamma$, $\tau\rightarrow lll$ with $l= e,\mu$ and $\mu(\tau) \to e (\mu) \gamma$ are evaluated in the framework of a model based on the extended symmetry gauge $SU(3)_c \otimes SU(3)_L \otimes U(1)_Y$ with a…
We reconsider the bounds on non-standard neutrino interactions with matter which can be derived by constraining the four-charged-lepton operators induced at the loop level. We find that these bounds are model dependent. Naturalness…
In the first part of this thesis, we consider an extension to the Standard Model composed by a Massive Vector Doublet under SU(2)L and a Left-handed Heavy Neutral Lepton. We study the production of these exotic leptons with a Same Flavor…
B-decays mediated by both charged currents and neutral currents have provided hints of violation of lepton flavour universality. By assuming an explanation of these anomalies in terms of new physics at the TeV scale affecting the third…
The mixing of new vectorlike leptons with leptons in the standard model can generate flavor violating couplings of $h$, $W$ and $Z$ between heavy and light leptons. Focusing on the couplings of the muon, the partial decay width of $h\to…
We chart new-physics models that produce exotic, high-multiplicity muon decays featuring prompt or displaced $e^+e^-$ pairs and/or photons, with or without missing energy, such as $\mu \to 5e$, $\mu \to 7e$, etc. Starting from an…
We study an extension of the minimal gauged $L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}$ model in order to explain the anomalous magnetic moments of muon and electron simultaneously. Presence of an additional scalar doublet $\eta$ and an in-built $Z_2$ symmetry…
