We consider in this paper a Left-Right symmetric gauge model in which a global lepton-number-like symmetry is introduced and broken spontaneously at a scale that could be as low as 10^4 GeV or so. The corresponding physical Nambu-Goldstone…

We reconsider the complete set of four-quark operators in the Weak Effective Theory (WET) for non-leptonic $\Delta F=1$ decays that govern $s\to d$ and $b\to d, s$ transitions in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond, at the Next-to-Leading…

We posit that the distinct patterns observed in fermion masses and mixings are due to a minimally broken $\mathrm{U}(2)_{q+e}$ flavor symmetry acting on left-handed quarks and right-handed charged leptons, giving rise to an accidental…

We present the renormalisation group running of the bosonic operators of the Standard Model effective field theory by the Lepton Number Violating operators (LNVs) at 1-loop order up to $\mathcal{O}(v^4/\Lambda^4)$, with $v \sim 246$ GeV as…

We investigate the flavour alignment conditions that New Physics (NP) models need to satisfy in order to address the $(g-2)_\mu$ anomaly and, at the same time, be consistent with the tight bounds from $\mu \to e \gamma$ and $\tau \to \mu…

We investigate the potential of associated Higgs $pp\to Vh$ and diboson production $pp\to VW$ channels at the LHC (with $V=W,Z$) to constrain flavor-physics operators. Within a general Effective Field Theory (EFT) framework, we derive the…

Many new physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model often necessitate the existence of a (light) neutral scalar $H$, which might couple to the charged leptons in a flavor violating way, while evading all existing constraints. We show that…

We show that the scalar leptoquark Yukawa couplings generate a significant lepton flavour violation. We compute the light scalar leptoquark contributions to the branching ratios (Br) of the lepton flavour violating (LFV) decays $\ell \to…
