Although the $(g-2)_\mu$ anomaly can be explained by New Physics (NP) involving only muons, a more general flavor structure is usually expected for NP operators in the Standard Model (SM) Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). In particular, if…

In this study, we investigate the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $(g_\mu-2)$ as reported by Fermilab (FNAL), along with the recent measurement of the $W$-boson mass by the CDF-II collaboration. Both findings show significant…

The longstanding muon $(g-2)$ anomaly, as well as the persistent hints of lepton flavor universality violation in $B$-meson decays, could be signaling new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). A minimal $R$-parity-violating supersymmetric…

We study $b \to s \ell_1^+ \ell_2^-$ transitions, both for the lepton flavour conserving $\ell_1=\ell_2$ and violating case $\ell_1 \neq \ell_2$, in a minimal extension of the Standard Model proposed in [1]. In this framework, the Standard…

We consider simultaneous explanations of the electron and muon $g-2$ anomalies through a single $Z'$ of a $U(1)'$ extension to the Standard Model (SM). We first perform a model-independent analysis of the viable flavour-dependent $Z'$…

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…

Motivated by the growing evidence for lepton flavour universality violation after the first results from Fermilab's muon $(g-2)$ measurement, we revisit one of the most widely studied anomaly free extensions of the standard model namely,…

We extend the contents of the standard model (SM) by introducing TeV-scale scalar leptoquarks to generate neutrino masses and explain some current observed deviations from the SM predictions, including the anomalous magnetic moments of…

We consider lepton flavor violating Higgs decay, specifically $h \to \mu\tau$, in a leptoquark model. We introduce two scalar leptoquarks with the $SU(3)_c \times SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y$ quantum numbers, $(3,2,7/6)$ and $(3,2,1/6)$, which do…

We propose the local $(B-L)_{\mu\tau}$ model, which minimally retains the local $B-L$ extension for the sake of neutrino phenomenologies, and at the same time presents an invisible gauge boson $Z'$ with mass $\sim {\cal O}(10)$ MeV to…

An additional generation of quarks and leptons and their SUSY counterparts, which are vector-like under the Standard Model gauge group but are chiral with respect to the new U(1)$_{3-4}$ gauge symmetry, are added to the Minimal…

We study the implications of the recent anomalies in the $W$-boson mass and the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon on $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ model. We show that the introduction of vector-like leptons which mix with muon can solve both…

We propose a new model with flavor-dependent gauged $U(1)_{B-L_1}\times U(1)_{B-L_{2}-L_{3}}$ symmetry in addition to the flavor-blind one in the standard model. The model contains three right-handed neutrinos to cancel gauge anomalies and…
