We introduce a mirror copy of the ordinary fermions and Higgs scalars for embedding the $SU(2)_L\times U(1)_Y$ electroweak gauge symmetry into an $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R\times U(1)_{B-L}$ left-right gauge symmetry. We then show the…
We study the one-loop corrections to the $Zb\bar{b}$ vertex in extensions of the Standard Model with arbitrary numbers of scalar doublets, neutral scalar singlets, and charged scalar singlets. Starting with a general parameterization of…
The left-right symmetric model (LRSM) with gauge group $SU(2)_{L} \times SU(2)_{R} \times U(1)_{B-L}$ is reconstructed from the geometric formulation of gauge theory in $M_4 \times Z_2 \times Z_2$ where $M_4$ is the four-dimensional…
We consider a left-right symmetric extension of the Standard Model where the spontaneous breakdown of the left-right symmetry is triggered by doublets. The electroweak $\rho$ parameter is protected from large corrections in this Doublet…
We analyze the constraints on possible anomalous contributions to the $W^+W^-Z$ vertex coming from non-universal radiative corrections to the $Z \rightarrow b \bar{b}$ width. We parametrize these corrections in terms of $\epsilon_b$ and use…
In this work, we study an extension of the Standard Model (SM) based on the gauge symmetry $SU(3)_C\times SU(2)_L\times U(1)_{Y'}\times U(1)_R$ where only the right-handed fermions have nonzero $U(1)_R$ charge and the $U(1)_Y$ weak…
Left-Right Models (LRM) attempt at giving an understanding of the violation of parity (or charge-conjugation) by the weak interactions in the SM through a similar description of left- and right-handed currents at high energies. The…
We compute the one-loop corrections to the $Z \to b\bar{b}$ vertex in the $U(1)_R$ symmetric minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model. We find that the predicted value of $R_b$ is consistent with experiment if the mass of the…
We revisit the issue of the limit on the scale of Left-Right symmetry breaking. We focus on the minimal SU(2)_L x SU(2)_R x U(1)_B-L gauge theory with the seesaw mechanism and discuss the two possibilities of defining Left-Right symmetry as…
We study a variation to the SUSY Left-Right symmetric model based on the gauge group $SU(3)_c\times SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R\times U(1)_{BL}$. Beyond the quark and lepton superfields we only introduce a second Higgs bidoublet to produce…
We begin to analyze and contrast the predictions for the decay $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ in the Left-Right Symmetric Model(LRM) with those of the Standard Model(SM). In particular, we show that the forward-backward asymmetry of the lepton…
We propose a class of left-right symmetric models (LRSMs) with spontaneous D parity breaking, where SU(2)_R breaks at the TeV scale while discrete left-right symmetry breaks around 10^9 GeV. By embedding this framework in a…
We consider the minimal U(1)$_{B-L}$ extension of the Standard Model (SM) with the classically conformal invariance, where an anomaly free U(1)$_{B-L}$ gauge symmetry is introduced along with three generations of right-handed neutrinos and…
Motivated by the $\sim 2\sigma$ discrepancy between the experimental value for $R_b$ and the theoretical prediction of the Standard Model, we examine the effect of new physics on the $Z$-$b$-$\overline{b}$ vertex. Using general results for…
In this paper, we propose a $G_{L-R}\times U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ gauge-symmetric model where $G_{L-R}$ is the left-right gauge symmetry and $L_i$ is the $i-$flavor lepton number. We use the spontaneous breaking (SSB) of $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$…
We study the symmetry breaking sector of a supersymmetric left-right model based on the gauge group $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R\times U(1)_{B-L}$. The explicit mass matrices of neutral, singly charged and doubly charged scalars are constructed.…
We study the minimal gauged U(1)_{B-L} supersymmetric model and show that it provides an attractive theory for spontaneous R-parity violation. Both U(1)_{B-L} and R-parity are broken by the vacuum expectation value of the right-handed…
We explore the radiative corrections to the process $Z \to b \bar b$ in models with extended Higgs sectors. The observables $R_b = \Gamma(Z \to b \bar b)/\Gamma(Z \to \rm{hadrons})$ and the $Z b \bar b$ coupling asymmetry, $A_b = (g_L^2 -…
The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics is a precise model of electroweak interactions, however there is growing tension between the SM and observations (neutrino oscillations, dark matter, dark energy, baryogenesis, among others).…
A self-consistent version of the left-right (LR) symmetric model is used to examine tree- as well as one-loop level radiative corrections to the muon decay. It is shown that constraints on the heavy sector of the model parameters are…
