We investigate the possibility whether the tensions with SM expectations observed in several b -> sll transitions, including hints for lepton flavour non-universality, could be due to the decay of B into a new light resonance. We find that…
The updated analysis of the LHCb Collaboration on the lepton flavor violation suggests that the new physics should couple to muons and electrons with comparable magnitudes, resulting in the anomalies in both rare decay channels, $b…
In this work, we have considered a gauged $U(1)_{\rm B-L}$ extension of the Standard Model (SM) with three right handed neutrinos for anomaly cancellation and two additional SM singlet complex scalars with non-trivial B-L charges. One of…
Lepton Flavour Universality tests with semileptonic $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda_c^*$ decays are important to corroborate the present anomalies in the similar ratios $R_{D^{(*)}}$, and can provide complementary constraints on possible origins of…
We consider an anomaly-free $U(1)'$ model with favorable couplings to heavy flavors in the Standard Model(SM), as motivated by $B$-meson anomalies at LHCb. Taking the $U(1)'$ charge to be $Q'=y(L_\mu-L_\tau)+ x(B_3-L_3)$, we can explain the…
We propose a scenario with a fermion dark matter, where the dark matter particle used to be the Dirac fermion, but it takes the form of the Majorana fermion at a late time. The relic number density of the dark matter is determined by the…
Several experiments observed deviations from the Standard Model (SM) in the flavour sector: LHCb found a $4-5\,\sigma$ discrepancy compared to the SM in $b\to s\mu^+\mu^-$ transitions (recently supported by an Belle analysis) and CMS…
Recent experimental results suggest that the neutrinos of the Standard Model are massive, though light. Therefore they may mix with each other giving rise to lepton flavour or even lepton number violating processes, depending on whether…
It is well known that dark matter density measurements, indirect and direct detection experiments, importantly complement the LHC in setting strong constraints on new physics scenarios. Yet, dark matter searches are subject to limitations…
We propose a new freeze-in dark matter candidate which feebly couples to the standard model charged leptons. The feeble interactions allow it (i) to freeze-in from the Standard Model thermal bath with its relic density being either a…
We investigate an extension of the left-right symmetric model featuring an additional non-abelian $SU(2)$ gauge symmetry. The particle content is augmented by one generation of vector-like leptons transforming under the fundamental…
We consider an abelian extension of the Standard Model (SM) comprising a new gauge group $U(1)^\prime$, with the neutral gauge boson $Z^\prime$ having flavour violating couplings to quarks and leptons. The fermion content is the same as in…
There are presently several discrepancies in $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ decays of $B$ mesons suggesting new physics coupling to $b$ quarks and leptons. We show that a $Z'$, with couplings to quarks and muons that can explain the $B$-decay…
The large and growing library of measurements from the Large Hadron Collider has significant power to constrain extensions of the Standard Model. We consider such constraints on a well-motivated model involving a gauged and…
Anomalies in (semi)leptonic $B$-meson decays present interesting patterns that might be revealing the shape of the new physics to come. In order to understand the experimental data, we explore symmetry arguments that lead to the hypothesis…
We present a detailed study of a combined singlet-doublet scalar and singlet-doublet fermion model for dark matter. These models have only been studied separately in the past. We show that their combination allows for the radiative…
This Thesis presents my personal contributions to two distinct fields, namely the recent experimental anomalies in B-meson decays, and the longstanding quest for a theoretical explanation of lepton masses and mixings, under a unifying…
We explore a gauged $U(1)_{B-L}$ extension of standard model with inclusion of three right-handed neutrinos of exotic $B-L$ charges to cancel the gauge anomaly. Non-trivial transformation of new particles under $B-L$ symmetry forbids the…
We discuss singlet fermion dark matter within a left-right symmetric model promoting baryon and lepton numbers as separate gauge symmetries. We add a simple Dirac fermionic dark matter singlet under $SU(2)_{L,R}$ with nonzero and equal…
We construct a model in which the standard model is extended by a hidden sector with two gauge $U(1)$ bosons. A Dirac fermion $\psi$ charged under both $U(1)$ fields is introduced in the hidden sector which can be a subcomponent of the dark…
