Recently, we have witnessed two hints of physics beyond the standard model: A 3.3$\sigma$ local excess ($M_{A_0} = 52$ GeV) in the search for $H_0\to A_0 A_0\to b\bar{b}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ and a 4.2$\sigma$ deviation from the SM prediction in…
We chart new-physics models that produce exotic, high-multiplicity muon decays featuring prompt or displaced $e^+e^-$ pairs and/or photons, with or without missing energy, such as $\mu \to 5e$, $\mu \to 7e$, etc. Starting from an…
The phenomenon of the Dark matter baffles the researchers: the underlying dark particle has escaped so far the detection and its astrophysical role appears complex and entangled with that of the standard luminous particles. We propose that,…
In this work we consider a model including dark sector bosons interacting through tensor currents with Standard Model leptons. We show that for certain values of the interaction constant this model has the potential of providing an…
