The chargino-neutralino production with subsequent leptonic decays is one of the most promising supersymmetry (SUSY) signatures at the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider. We present the most recent results on the search for the…
While charged lepton-flavor-violating tau decays to strange mesons provide powerful probes of the underlying $\tau\to\ell d \bar{s}$ transition, the corresponding decay modes involving hyperons are kinematically forbidden. To address this…
The addition of the EMTiming system installed to provide the time measurements of the electromagnetic calorimeter signals has significantly increased the sensitivity of CDF to events with a photon and a missing energy. Here I review recent…
Results of searches for SUSY production at CMS in events with third-generation signatures are presented. Along with missing energy, the final states may include hadronic jets with or without b-quark tag, light leptons, and tau leptons.…

Belle II has a broad $\tau$ physics program, in particular in searches for lepton flavour and lepton number violations. Belle II profits from the relatively large $\tau$-pair production rate in the low background environment of $e^+e^-$…

The Tevatron experiments, CDF and D0, have produced a wealth of new B-physics results since the start of Run II in 2001. We've observed new B-hadrons, seen new effects, and increased many-fold the precision with which we know the properties…
