We study the purely leptonic decays of heavy-flavored charged pseudoscalar (P) and vector (V) mesons ($D_{(s)}^{(*)+}$, $B_{(c)}^{(*)+}$) in the relativistic independent quark (RIQ) model based on an average flavor-independent confining…
We have searched for lepton flavor violating decays of the tau lepton with one or two KS0 mesons in the final state. The data used in the search were collected with the CLEO II and II.V detectors at the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR)…
Building on our recent proposal to explain the experimental hints of new physics in $B$ meson decays within the framework of Pati-Salam quark-lepton unification, through the interactions of the $(3,1)_{2/3}$ vector leptoquark, we construct…
The exclusive decay of the Higgs boson to a vector meson ($ J/\psi $ or $ \Upsilon(1S) $) and $ Z $ boson is studied in this work. The decay amplitudes are separated into two parts in a gauge invariant manner. The first part comes from the…
The heaviness of the top quark makes its 2-body decay mode $t \to bW^+$ to be dominant, at such level that hardly any other decay mode reaches a detectable branching ratio (BR) within the SM. Here we study the decay $t \to bW^+\ell^-\ell^+$…
In this work, we study the lepton number violating W boson and top quark decays via intermediate on-shell Majorana neutrinos Nj into three charged leptons and a light neutrino. We discuss the neutrino oscillation effects present in the…
In a large class of SUSY GUT models with see-saw mechanism of neutrino mass generation, lepton flavor violating (LFV) decays $\mu \to e + \gamma$, $\tau \to \mu + \gamma$, etc., are predicted with rates that are within the reach of present…
We explore possible signatures for heavy neutrinos and neutral gauge boson, Z', in TeV scale B-L extension of the Standard Model (BLSM) with inverse seesaw mechanisms at the Large Hadron Collider. We show that due to new decay channels of…
We investigate the LHC discovery potential for electroweak scale heavy neutrino singlets (seesaw I), scalar triplets (seesaw II) and fermion triplets (seesaw III). For seesaw I we consider a heavy Majorana neutrino coupling to the electron…
The LHC experiments have measured the branching fraction for $Z$ decays to four leptons (electrons or muons). We have combined these measurements with the result $\mathcal{B}(Z \to 4\ell) = (4.58 \pm 0.26) \times 10^{-6}$, allowing a…
The massive neutrino radiative decay $\nu_i \rightarrow \nu_j \gamma$ ($i \ne j$) is investigated within the Minimal Quark-Lepton Symmetry of the Pati-Salam type based on the $SU(4)_V \times SU(2)_L \times G_R$ group in an external constant…
We have searched for lepton family number violating decays of the $\tau$ lepton using final states with an electron or a muon and one or more $\pi^0$ or $\eta$ mesons but no neutrinos. The data used in the search were collected with the…
The lepton flavour violating charged lepton decays mu to e + gamma and thermal leptogenesis are analysed in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with see-saw mechanism of neutrino mass generation and soft supersymmetry breaking terms…
An extension of the Standard Model by three singlet fermions with masses smaller than the electroweak scale allows to explain simultaneously neutrino oscillations, dark matter and baryon asymmetry of the Universe. We discuss the properties…
We continue our previous determination of the masses of the sequential fourth generation quarks in an extension of the Standard Model, and predict the mass $m_4$ ($m_L$) of the fourth generation neutrino $\nu_4$ (charged lepton $L$) by…
We report on a study of the relative rates of B meson decays into psi(2S) and J/psi mesons using 1.3 fb^-1 of pbar p collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV recorded by the D0 detector operating at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. We observe the…
In the context of the seesaw mechanism, it is natural that the large solar and atmospheric neutrino mixing angles originate separately from large 2 by 2 mixings in the neutrino and charged-lepton sectors, respectively, and large mixing in…
Leptonic and semi-leptonic $D$ decays at BESIII contribute the most precise experimental measurement of $|V_{cs(d)}|$ and form factor $f_{D_{(s)}}$ in the world based on 2.93 fb$^{-1}$ and 3.19 fb$^{-1}$ data taken at center-of-mass…
In the context of the minimal supersymmetric seesaw model, we study the implications of the current neutrino data for thermal leptogenesis, $\beta\beta_{0\nu}$ decay, and leptonic flavour- and CP-violating low-energy observables. We express…
