We have derived new upper limits on several products (two at a time) of lepton number violating $\lambda'$-type couplings from the consideration of $\Delta S = 2$ and $\Delta B = 2$ box graphs. Each box contains one scalar lepton and one…
We consider four lepton-number violating (\lv) processes: (a) neutrinoless double-beta decay (0\nu\beta\beta), (b) Delta L = 2 tau decays, (c) Delta L = 2 rare meson decays and (d) nuclear muon-positron conversion. In the absence of exotic…
After discussion of mechanisms of lepton number violation, we consider meson decays $K^+ \to\pi^ - \ell ^ + \ell '^ +$ and $D^ + \to K^ - \ell ^ + \ell '^ +$ ($\ell,\ell ' = e,\mu $) with $\Delta L= 2$ in the Standard Model extended by…
We discuss the constraints of lepton mixing angles from lepton number violating processes such as neutrinoless double beta decay, (\mu^-)-(e^+) conversion and K decay, $K^- \to \pi^+\mu^-\mu^-$ which are allowed only if neutrinos are…
We study constraints on new physics from the recent measurement of Br ($K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar \nu)$ by the E787 and E949 Collaborations. In our analysis we consider two models of new physics: $(a)$ extra down type singlet quark model…
Constraints from the muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment and lepton flavor violating processes are translated into lower bounds on v_Delta*m_H++ in the Higgs Triplet Model by considering correlations through the neutrino mass matrix. The…
We analyze the impact of a measurement, or of an improved bound, on theta_{13} for the determination of the effective neutrino mass in neutrino-less double beta decay and cosmology. In particular, we discuss how an improved limit on (or a…
We analyze rare kaon decays in models in which the dominant new effect is an enhanced $\bar s d Z$ vertex $Z_{ds}$. We point out that in spite of large theoretical uncertainties the CP-violating ratio $\epsilon^\prime/\epsilon$ provides at…
We update the Standard Model predictions for the rare decays $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ and $K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$. In view of improved limits on $B_s$--$\bar B_s$ mixing we derive a stringent and theoretically clean Standard Model upper…
We study violations of n particle Bell inequalities (as developed by Mermin and Klyshko) under the assumption that suitable partial transposes of the density operator are positive. If all transposes with respect to a partition of the system…
Improved upper bounds are presented on the coupling $|U_{e4}|^2$ of an electron to a sterile neutrino $\nu_4$ from analyses of data on nuclear and particle decays, including superallowed nuclear beta decays, the ratios…
Strong upper bounds are derived on certain product combinations of lepton nonconserving couplings in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with explicit $R$-parity violation. The input is information from rare leptonic decays of the…
Using the general connection between the upper limit on the neutrino mass and the upper limits on certain types of non-Standard Model interaction that can generate loop corrections to the neutrino mass, we derive constraints on some…
We derive new upper and lower bounds for probabilities that $r$ or at least $r$ from $n$ events occur. These bounds can turn to equalities. The method is discussed as well. It works for measurable space and measures with sign, too. We also…
In this letter, we show that upper-limits on neutrino mass translate into upper-limits on the class of neutrino-matter interactions that can generate loop corrections to the neutrino mass matrix. We apply our results to $\mu$- and…
Motivated by the new experimental information reported by the BNL--E787 Collaboration, we analyse the present impact and the future prospects opened by the measurement of $\br(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu)$. Although still affected by a large…
Bosons which couple to two leptons and carry lepton number L=2, generically called bileptons, appear in many extensions of the standard model. We review the present constraints on bilepton parameters coming from low and high energy data. In…
We investigate bounds from tree-level and one-loop processes in generic supersymmetric models with spontaneous R-parity breaking in the superpotential. We analyse the bounds from a general point of view. The bounds are applicable both for…
We perform a complete analysis of $\Delta S=2$ processes in the kaon system and evaluate $\Delta M_K$ and $\epsilon_K$ in the left-right supersymmetric model. We include analytic expressions for the contributions of gluinos, neutralinos and…
The K2K experiment has presented the first results on the observation of nu_mu. They show a depletion compared to the expectations and are consistent with neutrino oscillations with a mass-splitting in the range favoured by the…
