With the recent discovery of the Higgs boson at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the goals of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment are now focused on probing for new physics beyond the standard model. The final state consisting of a…

One of the main indications for New Physics in rare $B$-decays is deduced from the tension between experimental and Standard Model predictions of the angular analysis of the $B^0 \to K^{*0} \mu^+\mu^-$ decay. There are however possible…

Whether in nature exists Majorana neutrino is one of the most fundamental questions in physics. It is directly related to the violation of accidental $U(1)$-lepton number symmetry(LNV). Enormous efforts had been put into such test and among…

The cross section of the process e+e- -> Ze+e is measured with 0.7fb^-1 of data collected with the L3 detector at LEP. Decays of the Z boson into quarks and muons are considered at centre-of-mass energies ranging from 183GeV up to 209GeV.…

The universality of free fall, a cornerstone of Einstein's theory of gravity, has so far only been tested with neutral composite states of first-generation Standard Model (SM) particles, such as atoms or neutrons, and, most recently,…

The observation of $B \to \tau \bar{\mu} + \mu \bar{\tau} $ at present experiments would be a clear sign of new physics. In this paper we calculate this process in a 2HDM framework where the decay is mediated by the exchange of spin zero…

We search for the decay B+ -> l+ nu gamma with l+ = e+ or mu+ using the full Belle data set of 772 x 10^6 BBbar pairs, collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. We reconstruct one…

We discus the muonic decay of light charged Higgs boson for $m_{H^\pm}\le m_t-m_b$ in the context of the generic two Higgs doublet model (2HDM) type-III. We show that for both alignment limit scenarios, the $H^\pm\to\mu\nu$ signal could be…

Within the context of composite Higgs models, recent hints on lepton-flavour non-universality in $B$ decays can be explained by a vector resonance $V$ with sizeable couplings to the Standard Model leptons ($\ell$). We argue that, in such a…
