We report the first search for a non-standard-model resonance decaying into $\tau$ pairs in $e^{+}e^{-}\rightarrow \mu^{+}\mu^{-} \tau^+\tau^-$ events in the 3.6-10 GeV/$c^{2}$ mass range. We use a 62.8 fb$^{-1}$ sample of $e^+e^-$…
Recent developments of transition-edge sensors (TESs), based on extensive experience in ground-based experiments, have been making the sensor techniques mature enough for their application on future satellite CMB polarization experiments.…
With no New Physics seen at the LHC, a second Higgs doublet remains attractive and plausible. The ratio ${\cal R}_B^{\mu/\tau} = {\cal B}(B \to \mu \bar\nu)/{\cal B}(B \to \tau \bar\nu)$ is predicted at 0.0045 in both the Standard Model and…
