The precise measurement of the width difference \Delta\Gamma_s among the mass eigenstates of the B_s-\bar{B}_s system requires the calculation of the corresponding decay matrix to order \alpha_s/m_b. QCD corrections to power-suppressed…
We consider the model of a massless charged scalar field, in (2+1) dimensions, with a self interaction of the form $lambda (\phi^* \phi)^3$ and interacting with a Chern Simons field. We calculate the renormalization group $\beta$ functions…
We use dijet measurements from the Large Hadron Collider to constrain ten third-generation four-quark operators in the Standard Model effective field theory. At tree level, only the five operators involving four bottom quarks are directly…

We perform a systematic study of models involving leptoquarks and diquarks with masses well below the grand unification scale and demonstrate that a large class of them is excluded due to rapid proton decay. After singling out the few…
We perform a general analysis of the R-parity conserving dimension-five operators that can be present beyond the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. Not all these operators are actually independent. We present a method which employs…

A discovery of neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay would be profound, providing the first direct experimental evidence of $\Delta L=2$ lepton number violating processes. While a natural explanation is provided by an effective Majorana…

Theories beyond the Standard Model must necessarily respect its gauge symmetry. This implies strict constraints on the possible models of non-standard neutrino interactions, which we analyze. The focus is set on the effective low-energy…

It is well known that a Weinberg dimension-5 operator for small neutrino masses can be realized at tree level in three types of renormalizable models: (i) the type-I seesaw mediated by fermion singlets, (ii) the type-II seesaw mediated by…
In the Standard Model, baryon number is an accidental symmetry, whose violation would constitute unambiguous evidence of new physics, with proton decay providing its most prominent experimental signature. At the same time, the peculiar…
