The vacuum expectation value $v_s$ of a Higgs triplet field $\Delta$ carrying two units of lepton number $L$ induces neutrino masses $\propto v_s$. The neutral component of $\Delta$ gives rise to two Higgs particles, a pseudoscalar $A$ and…
We investigate the detectability as well as reconstructibility of a light pseudoscalar particle $A$, of mass in the 50 - 60 GeV range, which is still allowed in a Type-X (lepton-specific) two-Higgs doublet scenario. Such a pseudoscalar can…
A light scalar $\phi$ with mass $\lesssim 1$ GeV and muonic coupling $\mathcal{O}(10^{-3})$ would explain the 3.5 $\sigma$ discrepancy between the Standard Model (SM) muon $g-2$ prediction and experiment. Such a scalar can be associated…
In the light of the recent measurement of the muon anmalous magnetic moment $a_\mu$ by the Muon $(g-2)$ Collaboration, we examine the contribution to $a_\mu$ from the exchange of flavor changing scalars. Assuming that the heavier…
The Fermilab Muon $g-2$ experiment recently reported its first measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment $a_\mu^{\textrm{FNAL}}$, which is in full agreement with the previous BNL measurement and pushes the world average deviation $\Delta…
If physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM) explains the $4.2\sigma$ difference between the Standard-Model and measured muon anomalous magnetic moment, $a_{\mu}$, minimal flavor violation predicts a shift in the analog quantity for the…
We show that a unified framework based on an $SU(2)_H$ horizontal symmetry which generates a naturally large neutrino transition magnetic moment and explains the XENON1T electron recoil excess also predicts a positive shift in the muon…
About 3 sigma deviation from the standard model prediction of muon anomalous magnetic moment (muon g-2) has been reported. We consider new physics beyond the standard model which has new Yukawa interactions with muon. We compute new…
In a two Higgs doublet model with extra Yukawa couplings, we assess the new physics contributions to charged lepton electric dipole moment. We focus especially on muon (and tau) EDM where in the coming decade several experiments $-$ Muon…
We consider a two-Higgs doublet model extended with a broken Abelian gauge symmetry under which all Standard Model (SM) quarks, fourth generation fermions and a new SM-singlet scalar boson are charged. Such a setup is shown to be able to…
We suggest an explanation for and explore the consequences of the excess around 95 GeV in the di-photon and di-tau invariant mass distributions recently reported by the CMS collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), together with the…
We consider lepton flavor violating Higgs decay, specifically $h \to \mu\tau$, in a leptoquark model. We introduce two scalar leptoquarks with the $SU(3)_c \times SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y$ quantum numbers, $(3,2,7/6)$ and $(3,2,1/6)$, which do…
A new measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment has been reported by the Fermilab Muon g-2 collaboration and shows a $4.2\sigma$ departure from the most precise and reliable calculation of this quantity in the Standard Model.…
In the lepton-specific version of two Higgs doublet models, a discrete symmetry is used to couple one Higgs, $\Phi_2$, to quarks and the other, $\Phi_1$, to leptons. The symmetry eliminates tree level flavor changing neutral currents…
Recent experimental results on muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment have shown a $4.2\sigma$ tension with the SM prediction, which has blown a fresh wind into the elementary particle physics community. The problem is believed to be…
Measurements of a Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have become increasingly consistent with the predictions of the Standard Model (SM). This fact puts severe constraints on many potential low-energy extensions of the Higgs…
I review possible explanations of the muon g-2 anomaly in models with extended Higgs and matter sectors, focusing on extensions of the standard model and the two Higgs doublet model with vectorlike leptons. Predictions of these models,…
The decay $A\to ZH$ is a characteristic signal of two-Higgs-doublet models (2HDMs), where $A$ and $H$ lie primarily within the same $SU(2)_L$ multiplet, leading to a coupling of order $g_2$ to the $Z$ boson. The subsequent decay $H\to…
The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon has been measured to 0.5 ppm in a series of precision experiments at the Brookhaven Alternating Gradient Synchrotron. The individual results for each sign: a(mu+)= 11 659 204(7)(5) E-10 and a(mu-) =…
We study the contribution of a generic charged Higgs $(H^+)$ to the muon anomalous magnetic moment $a_{\mu}$ with the SUSY soft breaking parameters. We find out that the deviation between the experimental data and the predicted SM value on…
