The form factors of the $K^+ \to \gamma$ transition are studied in the light-front quark model and chiral perturbation theory of $O(p^6)$. The decay spectrum of $K^+ \to e^+ \nu_{e}\gamma$, dominated by the structure dependent contribution,…
We study the implications of the experimental results on the \mu -> e\gamma decay rate and the muon anomalous magnetic moment, on muonic lepton flavor violating processes, such as \mu -> 3 e and \mu N -> e N. We use a model independent…
The $\nu_M{\rm SM}$ is defined as the SM extended to include dimension-5 operators. In this model neutrino masses violate lepton number, and two parameters of the lepton mixing matrix, the Majorana phases, are yet to be constrained. One…
We study the di-photon rate in Higgs decays within singlet extensions of the supersymmetric standard model. In particular we point out that light charginos as well as a light charged Higgs can significantly contribute to the corresponding…
We consider the Higgs sector in an extension of the MSSM with extra SM singlets, involving an extra $U(1)^\prime$ gauge symmetry, in which the domain-wall problem is avoided and the effective $\mu$ parameter is decoupled from the new gauge…
We calculate the rates of radiative $\beta^- \to \alpha^- + \gamma$ decays for $(\alpha, \beta) = (e, \mu)$, $(e, \tau)$ and $(\mu, \tau)$ by taking the {\it unitary} gauge in the $(3+n)$ active-sterile neutrino mixing scheme, and make it…
The rare decay $H \to Z\gamma$ has been investigated by both the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations, with each reporting an excess in Run~2 in 2023 characterized by $\mu = 2.2 \pm 0.7$. This anomaly was initially attributed to possible…
As we pointed out recently, the neutral decays $B_d\to\pi^\mp K^\pm$ and $B_d\to\pi^0K$ may provide non-trivial bounds on the CKM angle $\gamma$. In this paper, we reconsider this approach in the light of recent CLEO data, which look very…
We investigate the dimuon Higgs decay $h \to \mu^+\mu^-$ in the context of an extended Scotogenic model. The model introduces a singlet complex scalar in addition to the standard Scotogenic scalar doublet and singlet fermions, charged under…
An analysis is given of the chromoelectric dipole moment of quarks and of the neutron in an MSSM extension where the matter sector contains an extra vectorlike generation of quarks and mirror quarks. The analysis includes contributions to…
We explore the possibility of a fourth generation in the gauge-coupling-unified, minimal supersymmetric (MSSM) framework. We find that a sequential fourth generation (with a heavy neutrino $\nu'$) can still fit, surviving all present…
A recent study by Randall and Sundrum shows that models of Extended Technicolor (ETC) have interesting implications on rare B decays. We extend their study to the decay B -> mu+ mu- X. ETC models with a GIM mechanism predict a decay rate…
The experimental limit on the neutron electric dipole moment is used as a possible probe of new physics beyond the standard model. Within MSSM we use the current experimental limit on the neutron EDM and possible future improvement as a…
The leptons are viewed as composite objects, exhibiting anomalous magnetic moments and anomalous flavor-changing transition moments. The decay $\mu \to e \gamma$ is expected to occur with a branching ratio of the same order as the present…
The Extended Supersymmetric Standard Model (ESSM), motivated on several grounds, introduces two vectorlike families (16 + 16-bar) of SO(10)) with masses of order one TeV. It is noted that the successful predictions of prior work on fermion…
The ATLAS and CMS Collaborations reported that the observed number of Higgs boson decays into a $Z$ boson and a photon is $\mu = 2.2 \pm 0.7$ times higher than predicted by the Standard Model. Initially, this discrepancy was attributed to a…
A sample of 3120 $K^\pm\to\pi^\pm\mu^+\mu^-$ decay candidates with $(3.3\pm0.7)%$ background contamination has been collected by the NA48/2 experiment at the CERN SPS, allowing a detailed study of the decay properties. The branching ratio…
We study the semileptonic decays B -> Xs e+ e-, B -> Xs mu+ mu- in generic supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model. SUSY effects are parameterized using the mass insertion approximation formalism and differences with MSSM results…
With the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric $B$ Factory at SLAC, we present the first search for the decays $B^0\to\ell^+\ell^-\gamma$ ($l=e, \mu$). Using a data set of 292 $fb^{-1}$ collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance, we find…
We discuss a supersymmetric inverse seesaw model in which lepton flavour violating decays can be enhanced either by flavour violating slepton contributions or by the non-unitarity of the charged current mixing matrix. As an example we…
