The LHC will have unprecedented sensitivity to flavor-changing neutral current (FCNC) top quark decays, whose observation would be a clear sign of physics beyond the standard model. Although many details of top flavor violation are model…
An analysis of the cross section for hadronic production of gluino-squark pairs close to threshold is presented. Within the framework of non-relativistic QCD a significant enhancement compared to fixed order perturbation theory is observed…

Recent issues in heavy flavour physics are reviewed. Anomalies in charmonium, $B$, and $\Upsilon(5S)$ decays and production are highlighted. New results concerning exotic heavy quark states are also briefly reviewed.
A direct search for charged lepton-flavour violation in top-quark decays is presented. The data analysed correspond to $79.8\ \text{fb}^{-1}$ of proton--proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}=13\ \text{TeV}$ recorded by…
The phase structure of QCD with various number of flavors is studied for Wilson quarks. For the case of $N_F=3$ we find that the finite temperature deconfining transition is of first order in the chiral limit on an $N_t=4$ lattice. Together…
In this article we calculate the 1-loop supersymmetric QCD (SQCD) corrections to the decay $\tilde u_1\to c \tilde\chi^0_1$ in the MSSM with generic flavour structure. This decay mode is phenomenologically important if the mass difference…
Top quark physics at the LHC may open a window to physics beyond the standard model and even lead us to an understanding of the phenomenon "flavour". However, current flavour data is a strong hint that no "new physics" with a generic…
In this work, we have studied lepton flavor violating (LFV) decays of $Z$ gauge boson and Higgs boson ($H$) in the scotogenic model. We have computed branching ratios for the decays $Z\to\ell_\alpha\ell_\beta$ and…
We study the effect of scalar leptoquarks in the lepton flavour violating $B$ meson decays induced by the flavour changing transitions $b \to q l_i^+ l_j^-$ with $q=s,d$. In the standard model these transitions are extremely rare as they…
We analyze the rare and flavor changing decay of the top quark into a charm quark and a gauge boson in the littlest Higgs model with T-parity (LHT). We calculate the one-loop level contributions from the T-parity odd mirror quarks and gauge…
The gluino-induced contributions to the decay b-> s gamma are investigated in supersymmetric frameworks with generic sources of flavour violation. It is shown that, when QCD corrections are taken into account, the relevant operator basis of…

What flavour structure of $t$-channel thermal dark matter remains compatible with current flavour physics and direct detection bounds? We broadly chart the space of hypotheses using the framework of flavour symmetries and their breaking…
The sensitivity of the ATLAS experiment to the top-quark rare decay via flavour-changing neutral currents t --> Hq (q represents c and u quarks) has been studied at sqrt{s} = 14 TeV in the decay mode of ttbar --> HqWb --> WW*q,Wb -->l \nu l…
We study signatures of R-parity violation in the production of supersymmetric particles at the LHC, and the subsequent decay of the lightest neutralino being the end product of a supersymmetric cascade decay. In doing so, we pay particular…
If the LHC experiments discover new particles that couple to the Standard Model fermions, then measurements by ATLAS and CMS can contribute to our understanding of the flavor puzzles. We demonstrate this statement by investigating a…
A suitably broken U(2)^3 symmetry acting on the first two generations of quarks and squarks is studied as a natural generalization of the Minimal Flavour Violation principle to the case of a hierarchical squark spectrum. A definite…
In this work, we explore the flavour changing decays $H_i \to b s$ in a general supersymmetric scenario. In these models, the flavour changing decays arise at loop-level but, originating from a dimension-four operator, do not decouple and…
We study the flavor changing neutral current decays of the MSSM Higgs bosons into strange and bottom quarks. We focus on a scenario of minimum flavor violation here, namely only that induced by the CKM matrix. Taking into account constraint…
