In left-right symmetric models, large contributions to the decay amplitude $b \rightarrow s+ \gamma$ can arise from the mixing of the $W_L$ and $W_R$ gauge bosons as well as from the charged Higgs boson. These amplitudes are enhanced by the…
We present a concise formula to relate the effective mass term of the neutrinoless double beta decay to a single neutrino mass, two Majorana CP-violating phases and four observables of neutrino oscillations for a generic neutrino mass…
We interpret anomalies, deviations, from the standard model as being in fact due to effects not given by perturbation, because the top Yukawa coupling is after all so large that not by perturbation effects become important. Most of the…
In the near future, we will have the first significant experimental measurements of CP violation in B decays. These measurements will easily test crucial questions such as whether the Standard Model Kobayashi-Maskawa phase plays a dominant…
Different methods for treating the results of higher-order perturbative QCD calculations of the decay width of the Standard Model Higgs boson into bottom quarks are discusssed. Special attention is paid to the analysis of the $M_H$…
We derive the corrections induced by the W-boson propagator to the differential rates of the leptonic decay of a polarized muon and tau lepton. Results are presented both for decays inclusive of inner bremsstrahlung as well as for radiative…
We discuss contributions to neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay involving vector bosons. The starting point is a list of all possible vector representations that may contribute to $0\nu\beta\beta$ decay via $d=9$ or $d=11$…
We inquire if the total decay rate of neutral vector mesons can contain relevant off-shell contributions from the triangle anomaly. The answer seems to be affirmative for the case of J/Psi, and as a byproduct we get estimates of the decay…
A method for the general analysis of the sensitivities of neutron beta-decay experiments to manifestations of possible deviations from the Standard model is proposed. In a consistent fashion, we take into account all known (radiative and…
A global fit to the recent B->K*mu+mu- data shows indications for a large new-physics contribution to the Wilson coefficient of the semi-leptonic vector operator. In this article we consider a simple Z'-boson model of 3-3-1 type that can…
In presenting an up-to-date account of the experimental knowledge of the CKM matrix, special emphasis is placed on the exceptional degree of consistency shown by the current Standard Model determination of the unitarity triangle; some…
The most recent results from the B-factories on the time-dependent CP asymmetries measured in B0-decays mediated by b --> c c(bar) s quark-transitions are reviewed. The Standard Model interpretation of the results in terms of the parameter…
We review constraints on the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM) coming from direct searches at accelerators such as LEP, indirect measurements such as b -> s gamma decay and the anomalous magnetic moment of the…
The W-boson mass measurement recently reported by the CDF II experiment exhibits a significant deviation from both the Standard Model prediction and previous measurements. There is also a long-standing deviation between the Standard Model…
We present an updated calculation of the W boson pole mass in models beyond the Standard Model with FlexibleSUSY. The calculation has a decoupling behaviour and allows for a precise W pole mass prediction up to large new physics scales. We…
There are three observables related to neutrino mass, namely the kinematic mass in direct searches, the effective mass in neutrino-less double beta decay, and the sum of neutrino masses in cosmology. In the limit of exactly degenerate…
We study the contributions of an axion-like particle to the electroweak precision observables. The particle is assumed to couple with the standard model electroweak gauge bosons. We provide the formulae of the contributions valid for any…
Suppressing naturalness concerns, we discuss the compatibility requirements of high-scale supersymmetry breaking with the Higgs boson mass constraint and gauge coupling unification. We find that to accommodate superpartner masses…
In this talk, we point out some of the present and future possible signatures of physics beyond the Standard Model from B-meson decays, taking R-parity conserving and violating supersymmetry as illustrative examples.
Recently, several $B$-physics experiments have reported an appreciable deviation from the Standard Model (SM) in the tree-level observables $R_{D^{(*)}}$; the combined weighted average now stands at $\approx 4 \sigma$. We first show the…
