The description of physical processes in accelerated frames opens a window to numerous new phenomena. One can encounter these effects both in the subatomic world and on a macroscale. In the present work we review our recent results on the…
We investigate if the CP violation necessary for successful electroweak baryogenesis may be sourced by the neutrino Yukawa couplings. In particular, we consider an electroweak scale Seesaw realisation with sizeable Yukawas where the new…
If electro-weak symmetry is broken by a new strongly interacting sector, new physics will probably manifest itself in gauge boson scattering at the LHC. The relevant dynamics is well described in terms of an effective lagrangian. We discuss…
We consider a toy model of dark matter (DM) with a gauge singlet Dirac fermion that has contact interactions to quarks that differ for right-handed up and down quarks. This is motivated by the isospin-violating dark matter scenario that was…
The effects of isospin-symmetry breaking on the observables for parity-violating electron scattering are investigated within the framework of the nuclear shell model for 12C, 16O, and 28Si. Contributions due to mixing with low-lying states…
The LHC and other experiments show so far no sign of new physics and long-held beliefs about naturalness should be critically reexamined. We discuss therefore in this paper a model with a combined breaking of conformal and electroweak…
In processes taking place at energies much higher than the weak scale, electroweak corrections can be taken into account by using electroweak evolution equations, that are analogous to the DGLAP equations in QCD. We show that weak isospin…
Recently, it has been pointed out that there exists a connection between the generalized parton distribution $E(x,0,t)$ and the Sivers asymmetry. For transversely polarized nucleon targets, generalized parton distributions are asymmetric in…
We sketch some of our recent studies on probing strongly interacting electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism at high energy colliders such as the CERN LHC and the future e(+)e(-) linear collider. The study includes both model-dependent and…
We present a general analysis on charmless B-meson decays $B\to \pi\pi$ and $\pi K$. It is noticed that the final state interactions and inelastic rescattering effects must be significant in order to understand the consistency of the…
We analyze electroweak baryogenesis in supersymmetric theories with flavor-dependent CP-violating phases. We generalize the standard approach to include the flavor dependence of the CP-violating sources and obtain an analytical approximate…
If the underlying flavor symmetry is Abelian, quark mixings in $d_R$ sector are the most prominent. Such flavor violating effects can reveal itself through $\tilde d_R$ squark mixings if supersymmetry is realized in Nature. Quark-squark…
Heavy-quark spin symmetry is explicitly broken by the mass splitting between a heavy-light pseudoscalar meson and its vector partner. This fact plays a pivotal role in the physics of states whose mass lies close to the threshold of an…
In this work, we study the effects that interacting quark matter has on the stellar structure of strange and charm quark stars. Additionally, their stability against radial pulsations is analyzed using a first-order formalism for adiabatic…
This is the first of two reports cataloging the principal signatures of electroweak and flavor dynamics at $\pbarp$ and $pp$ colliders. Here, we discuss some of the signatures of dynamical elecroweak and flavor symmetry breaking. The…
We investigate the phenomenological constraints on a model where, besides the standard model Higgs sector, there is an effective new strong interaction acting on the third generation of quarks and characterized by a $\theta$-like term. This…
The low-energy breakup differential cross sections of the neutron-deuteron (nd) scattering are studied by employing the energy-independent version of the quark-model baryon-baryon interaction fss2. This interaction reproduces almost all the…

We analyze the dynamics of neutrino Gaussian wave-packets, the damping of flavor oscillations and decoherence effects within the framework of extended theories of gravity. In particular, we show that, when the underlying description of the…
When the Higgs sector of the standard model is replaced by a flavor doublet of color sextet quarks, dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking occurs, with the electroweak scale identified as the sextet chiral scale. Above the electroweak…
