We have searched for lepton-flavor-violating $\tau$ decays with a pseudoscalar meson ($\eta$, $\eta'$ {and} $\pi^0$) using a data sample of 401 fb$^{-1}$ collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. No…
We study the sensitivity of the Tevatron and the 7 TeV LHC to a leptoquark S coupling to a top quark and a charged lepton L (= e, mu, or tau). For the Tevatron, we focus on the case m_S < m_t, where the leptoquark pair production cross…
We search for lepton-flavor-violating tau decays into three leptons (electron or muon) using 535 fb-1 of data collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. No evidence for these decays is observed, and we…
One of the most interesting channels to search for SUSY is the direct pair-production of the $\tau$-lepton superpartner, $\widetilde{\tau}$. The $\widetilde{\tau}$ is with high probability the lightest of the scalar leptons, so one of the…
New almost-degenerate charged and neutral heavy leptons are a feature of a number of theories of physics beyond the Standard Model. The prospects for detecting these at the Large Hadron Collider using a time-of-flight technique are…

Studies of Higgs boson properties are crucial for the understanding the Standard Model (SM), as it could couple to new particles and provide hints to physics Beyond the Standard Model (BSM). Different future colliders are proposed, among…

The Electron--Ion Collider (EIC) offers a unique environment to study kinematically controlled lepton--nucleus (e+A) reactions, where a primary hard scattering is followed by an intranuclear cascade and the subsequent statistical…
There are many extensions of the standard model that predict the existence of electroweakly interacting massive particles (EWIMPs), in particular in the context of the dark matter. In this paper, we provide a way for indirectly studying…
High-precision measurements of the lepton's electromagnetic dipole moments provide a powerful probe for testing the Standard Model. A non-zero value of the $\tau$ lepton's electric(weak) dipole moment ($d_{\tau}^{\gamma}$, $d_{\tau}^{Z}$)…
In this paper, we present detailed studies on the feasibility at $pp$, $e^-p$ and $e^+e^-$ colliders for model-independent sensitivity estimates on the total cross-section and on the anomalous $\tau^+\tau^-\gamma$ interaction through the…
In a class of theories, dark matter is explained by postulating the existence of a `dark sector', which interacts gravitationally with ordinary matter. If this dark sector contains a U(1) symmetry, and a corresponding `dark' photon…
We argue that in models with several high scales; e.g. in composite Higgs models or in gauge extensions of the Standard Model (SM), vector-like leptons can be likely produced in a relatively large $\sqrt{s}$ region of the phase space.…
Motivated by the recent investigation of neutrinoless $\tau$-lepton decays by the CLEO collaboration, we perform a systematic analysis of such decays in a possible new-physics scenario with heavy Dirac/Majorana neutrinos, including…

We point out that the cross-section for the process $e^+ e^- \to e^+ e^- \tau^+ \tau^-$ at LEP is large enough to allow for a study of the anomalous electromagnetic couplings of the $\tau$ lepton. We show that the present bounds on the…
