Lepton flavour violation (LFV) naturally occurs in many new physics models, specifically in those explaining the $B$ anomalies. While LFV has already been studied for mesonic decays, it is important to consider also baryonic decays mediated…

LHCb found hints for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) in $B\to K^*\mu^+\mu^-$, $R(K)$ and $B_s\to\phi\mu^+\mu^-$. These intriguing hints for NP have recently been confirmed by the LHCb measurement of $R(K^*)$ giving a combined…

Discrepancies between recent experimental results and their respective Standard Model predictions, known as flavour anomalies, are reported in semileptonic charged and neutral-current $B$-decays, the muon magnetic moment $(g-2)_\mu$, and…
In recent years, lepton flavour violating (LFV) decays are one of the most trending topics to probe new physics (NP). The latest results of LHCb have motivated us to study the LFV decays through b to s transition. The branching ratios,…
We show that by adding a single new scalar particle to the Standard Model, a TeV-scale leptoquark with the quantum numbers of a right-handed down quark, one can explain in a natural way three of the most striking anomalies of particle…
There are four models of tree-level new physics (NP) that can potentially simultaneously explain the $b \to s \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $b \to c \tau^- {\bar\nu}$ anomalies. They are the S3, U3 and U1 leptoquarks (LQs), and a triplet of SM-like…
Lepton flavour violation (LFV), and lepton flavour university violation (LFUV), are striking signatures of beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics. Recent searches for these at the ATLAS and CMS experiments are presented, using…
While the LHC has not directly observed any new particle so far, experimental results from LHCb, BELLE and BABAR point towards the violation of lepton flavour universality in $b\to s\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ and $b\to c\ell\nu$. In this context,…
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…

Neutrino oscillations are solidly established, with a hint of CP violation just emerging. Similarly, there are hints of lepton universality violation in $b \to s$ transitions at the level of $2.6 \sigma$. By assuming that the unitary…
Partial compositeness is a key ingredient of models where the electroweak symmetry is broken by a composite Higgs state. Recently, a UV completion of partial compositeness was proposed, featuring a new strongly coupled gauge interaction as…
Theoretical aspects of lepton-flavor violating (LFV) processes on the supersymmetric models are reviewed. In particular, we show that, assuming the minimal supergravity scenario, the LFV interaction at the higher energy scale leads to the…
We will present the most recent results from the BABAR Collaboration concerning New Physics searches in rare B and Lepton Flavour Violating (LFV) decays, including b --> s transitions, purely leptonic B decays and LFV tau decays.
Observed neutrino oscillations imply that the global lepton flavor symmetry of the Standard Model must be broken. Therefore, searches for lepton flavor violation (LFV) are promising probes of new physics beyond the Standard Model.…
