Events with isolated leptons and missing transverse momentum are searched for in electron- or positron-proton collisions at HERA by the H1 and ZEUS experiments. Such events may be explained within the Standard Model by W boson production,…
The dark matter and existence of new particles are now a possible explanation of several physics phenomena which evade the predictions of the Standard Model. In this context Axion-Like-Particles (ALP) with masses in the MeV to GeV range…
We discuss theoretically the possibility of observing the bound states of the \eta and \eta'(958) mesons in nuclei. We apply the NJL model to study the \eta and \eta' meson properties at finite density and calculate the formation cross…
A search for events with an imbalance in transverse momentum and with isolated high energy leptons has been carried out at the positron-proton collider HERA. One event with an e^- and five events with a mu^+- are found together with…
Fermilab operates the world's most intense antiproton source. Newly proposed experiments can use those antiprotons either parasitically during Tevatron Collider running or after the Tevatron Collider finishes in about 2011. For example, the…
A next-generation rare pion decay experiment, PIONEER, is strongly motivated by several inconsistencies between Standard Model (SM) predictions and data pointing towards the potential violation of lepton flavor universality. It will probe…
The upcoming Mu3e experiment aims to search for the lepton flavour violating decay $\mu^+ \to e^+ e^- e^+$ with an unprecedented final sensitivity of one signal decay in $10^{16}$ observed muon decays by making use of an innovative…

The Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon TPC (NEXT) seeks to discover the neutrinoless double beta ($\beta\beta 0\nu$) decay of $^{136}$Xe using a high-pressure xenon gas time projection chamber with electroluminescent amplification. The…
Numerous searches for new phenomena have been carried out using data from proton-antiproton collisions at Fermilab's Tevatron. Final states with leptons give signatures which are relatively unique and generally have small backgrounds. We…
Measurements are reported of the central exclusive production of \jpsi and \psitwos mesons in $pp$ collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Backgrounds are significantly reduced compared to previous measurements made at lower…
We have searched for anomalous production of missing E$_{\rm T}$ ($\mett$), jets, leptons ($e, \mu, \tau$), $b$-quarks, or additional photons in events containing two isolated, central \mbox{($|\eta|<1.0$)} photons with \mbox{$\Et>12$~GeV}.…
A search for rare lepton decays of the eta meson was performed using the WASA detector at CELSIUS. Two candidates for double Dalitz decay eta->e+e-e+e- events are reported with a background of 1.3+/-0.2 events. This allows to set an upper…
One of the most striking signature of supersymmetric models with electroweak symmetry breaking is the presence of multilepton event topologies in the decay products. In this paper searches are presented for physics beyond the Standard Model…
Beam asymmetry and differential cross section for the reaction gamma+p->eta+p were measured from production threshold to 1500 MeV photon laboratory energy. The two dominant neutral decay modes of the eta meson, eta->2g and eta->3pi0, were…
Currently, the only worldwide source of low-energy antiprotons is the AD/ELENA facility located at CERN. To date, all precision measurements on single antiprotons have been conducted at this facility and provide stringent tests of the…
Neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay is a hypothetical rare nuclear transition ($T_{1/2}>10^{26}$ y). Its observation would provide an important insight about the nature of neutrinos (Dirac or Majorana particle) demonstrating…
