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.
We present a concise review of the status of the Standard Model and of the search for new physics.
The biggest question in beyond the standard model physics is what are the scales of new physics. Ideas about scales, as well as experimental evidence and constraints, are surveyed for a variety of possible forms of new physics:…
I review CP violation in the standard model (SM). I also describe the predictions for CP violation in the B system, along with signals for physics beyond the SM. I stress the numerous contributions of Pat O'Donnell to this subject. Finally,…
The flavour observables currently in the spotlight because of the recent experimental updates or because of the presence of tensions with the Standard Model predictions are reviewed in their main aspects. These quantities suggest the…
Motivations for physics beyond the Standard Model are reviewed, with particular emphasis on supersymmetry at the TeV scale. Constraints on the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model with universal soft supersymmetry-breaking…
The possibility of fundamental theories with very many ground states, each with different physical parameters, changes the way that we approach the major questions of particle physics. Most importantly, it raises the possibility that these…
Many sources of new physics can lead to shifts in the Standard Model predictions for cross sections and asymmetries at the NLC below their direct production thresholds. In this talk we discuss some of the tools that are useful for…
New large colliders will probe scales up to few TeV, indicating the way Nature has chosen to extend the Standard Model. We review alternative scenarios to the traditional Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model: the little Higgs model, split…
We look at various features of the Standard Model with the purpose of exploring some possibilities of how to seek physical laws beyond it, i.e. at even smaller distances. Only parameters and structure which are not calculable from the…
I briefly summarize the prospects for extending our understanding of physics beyond the standard model within the next five years.
Although the Standard Model has been firmly established, the search for physics beyond the SM is ongoing by investigating new experimental probes. Rare charm decays are a unique tool to access New Physics studies. The high luminosity…
In these lectures we briefly cover some of the main lines of research in particle physics beyond the Standard Model.
The possibility of physics beyond the standard model is studied. The requirement of finiteness of the zero point energy density and pressure or the requirement of the Lorentz invariance of the zero point stress-energy tensor in Minkowski…
The Standard Model is in good shape, apart possibly from g_\mu - 2 and some niggling doubts about the electroweak data. Something like a Higgs boson is required to provide particle masses, but theorists are actively considering…
I summarize work done with Bamert, Burgess, Nardi and London in which we examine the effects of new physics on R_b. Our work facilitates the identification of such new physics in case the present two-sigma deviation of R_b from its Standard…
The standard model of particle physics is analyzed for the case of a Higgs potential not favoring spontaneous electroweak symmetry breaking to gain insight into the physics of the standard model. Electroweak breaking still takes place, and…
Motivated by LHC results, we modify the usual criterion for naturalness by ignoring the uncomputable power divergences. The Standard Model satisfies the modified criterion ('finite naturalness') for the measured values of its parameters.…
The aim of "A glance beyond the quantum model" [arXiv:0907.0372] to modernize the Correspondence Principle is compromised by an assumption that a classical model must start with the idea of particles, whereas in empirical terms particles…
We illustrate some tests which may shed light on physics beyond the Standard Model. Some of them are especially sensitive to possible signals of new physics.
