Searching dark portal particle is a hot topic in particle physics frontier. We present a simulation study of an experiment targeted for searching the scalar portal particle at Huizhou $\eta$ factory. The HIAF high-intensity proton beam and…
We propose a new class of $U(1)_{\mu-\tau}$ gauged model that can explain recent flavor anomalies such as muon $g-2$, $b\to s\mu^+ \mu^-$, as well as include a scalar dark matter candidate while satisfying all the phenomenological…
In the general Higgs portal like models, the extra neutral scalar, $S$, can mix with the Standard Model (SM) Higgs boson, $H$. We perform an exploratory study focusing on the direct search for such a light singlet $S$ at the Large Hadron…
The extension of the Standard Model with two gauge-singlet Majorana fermions can simultaneously explain two beyond-the-Standard-model phenomena: neutrino masses and oscillations, as well as the origin of the matter-antimatter asymmetry in…
The measurements of the muon and electron anomalous magnetic moments hint at physics beyond the standard model. We show why and how models inspired by asymptotic safety can explain deviations from standard model predictions naturally. Our…
Meson decays offer a good opportunity to probe new physics. The rare kaon decay $K^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \nu\bar{\nu}$ is one of the cleanest of them and, for this reason, is rather sensitive to new physics, in particular, vector mediators.…
The MiniBooNE collaboration recently released a report claiming have observed an excess of electron and anti-electron neutrino with significance of $4.8 \, \sigma$ C.L. corroborating, in this way, the long-standing LSND anomaly. Combined…
The $K \rightarrow \mu\mu$ decays have recently been identified as another golden kaon physics mode alongside the rare $K \rightarrow\pi\nu\bar{\nu}$ processes. These golden modes provide precision tests of the Standard Model with very high…
Rare Kaon decays and CP violation are important tools to test the Standard Model and its extensions. We describe kaon physics observables testing CP violation and more generally short distance physics. Channels under consideration will be K…
Scalar triplet extensions of the Standard Model provide an interesting playground for the explanation of neutrino mass suppression through the type-II seesaw mechanism. Propelled by the possible connections with leptonic CP violation, we…
The Standard Model (SM) represents our best description of the subatomic world and it has been very successful in explaining how elementary particles interact under the influence of the fundamental forces. Despite its far reaching success…
The Higgs boson recently discovered at the Large Hadron Collider has shown to have couplings to the remaining particles well within what is predicted by the Standard Model. The search for other new heavy scalar states has so far revealed to…
We explore the idea of accidental dark matter (aDM) stability in the scale invariant local $U(1)_{B-L}$ model, which is a theory for neutrino and at the same time radiatively breaks scale invariance via quantum mechanical dynamics in the…
Recent high precision determinations of $V_{us}$ and $V_{ud}$ indicate towards anomalies in the first row of the CKM matrix. Namely, determination of $V_{ud}$ from superallowed beta decays and of $V_{us}$ from kaon decays imply a violation…
Following the discovery of the Kondo effect the bulk transport and magnetic behavior of the dilute magnetic alloys have been successfully described. In the last fifteen years new directions have been developed as the study of the systems of…
We show that a general two-Higgs-doublet model (THDM) with a very light CP-odd scalar (A) can be compatible with the rho parameter, Br(b --> s\gamma), R_b, A_b, (g-2) of muon, Br(Upsilon --> A gamma), and the direct search via the Yukawa…
The Minimal Dilaton Model (MDM) extends the Standard Model (SM) by a singlet scalar, which can be viewed as a linear realization of general dilaton field. This new scalar field mixes with the SM Higgs field to form two mass eigenstates with…
Cosmology is living through fascinating times, where new observations from ground and space telescopes are questioning the established paradigm, the so-called Lambda Cold Dark Matter model. The particle nature of Dark Matter is severely…
Over the next years, the Flavour Physics community will be looking for inconsistencies of the Standard Model (SM) by exploiting new and precise measurements. In these ``indirect new physics'' searches, the key strategy is to concentrate on…
Stringent constraints from direct detection experiments and the Large Hadron Collider motivate us to consider models in which the dark matter does not directly couple to the Standard Model, but that instead annihilates into hidden sector…
