We perform a phenomenological analysis of simplified models of light, feebly interacting particles~(FIPs)that can provide a combined explanation of the anomalies in $b\to s l^+ l ^-$ transitions at LHCb and the anomalous magnetic moment of…
Lepton Flavour Violation(LFV) is New Physics that must occur, but is stringently constrained by experiments searching for mu to e flavour change, such as $\mu \to e \gamma$, $\mu \to 3e$ and $\mu \to e$ conversion. However, in an Effective…

The flavour lepton symmetry is gauged for both the Standard Model flavor group and its extension with three degenerate right-handed neutrinos. As a consequence of anomaly cancellation, exotic leptons are introduced which induce a see-saw…

An algorithm is described for tagging the flavour content at production of neutral $B$ mesons in the LHCb experiment. The algorithm exploits the correlation of the flavour of a $B$ meson with the charge of a reconstructed secondary charm…

Upcoming searches for lepton flavour change (LFV) aim to probe New Physics(NP) scales up to $ \sim 10^4$ TeV, implying that they will be sensitive to NP at lower scales that is suppressed by loops or small couplings. We suppose that the NP…
