In this paper we show that the diphoton mass spectrum in proton-proton collisions at the LHC is sensitive to the top quark flavor changing neutral current in the vertices of $tu\gamma$ and $tc\gamma$. The diphoton mass spectrum measured by…
The ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC have reported the observation of a possible excess of events corresponding to a new particle $h$ with mass $\sim 125$ GeV that might be the long-sought Higgs boson, or something else. Decyphering the…
The flavour changing decays of the top quark are severely suppressed in the Standard Model by virtue of the Glashow-Iliopoulos-Maiani mechanism. Many beyond Standard Model extensions predict the decay rates at a level that is observable in…
We report on searches for Flavor-Changing Neutral Current (FCNC) decays in ppbar collisions at a center of mass energy of 1.96 TeV using up to 0.78 fb-1 of data, collected at the CDF and DO detectors respectively. The rare FCNC decays…
Flavor changing neutral currents coming from a new non-universal neutral Gauge-Boson and from the non-unitary quark mixing matrix for the $SU(3)_c\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ model with right handed neutrinos are studied. By imposing as…
Uniquely heavy with mass at the weak scale, the top quark may have large flavor changing couplings to Higgs bosons that are as yet unexplored. We show that such couplings can be directly probed at the LHC through the parton subprocess…
We analyse various flavour changing processes like $t\to hu,hc$, $h\to \tau e,\tau\mu$ as well as hadronic decays $h\to bs,bd$, in the framework of a class of two Higgs doublet models where there are flavour changing neutral scalar currents…
The invisible variant axion model is very attractive as it is free from the domain wall problem. This model requires at least two Higgs doublets at the electroweak scale, with one Higgs doublet carrying a nonzero Peccei-Quinn (PQ) charge…
We consider flavor-changing decays of neutral Higgs bosons in the context of CP-conserving BGL model - a variant of 2HDM Type 3 model suggested by Branco, Grimus and Lavoura - in which tree-level FCNC couplings are suppressed by elements of…
We have studied the sensitivity to flavor changing neutral current interaction of top and Higgs boson at the future circular collider in the hadron-hadron collision mode (FCC-hh). Our main concerns are the processes of $pp\rightarrow th$…
We consider next-to-minimal supersymmetric standard model (NMSSM) which has a gauge singlet superfield. In the scale invariant superpotential we do not have the mass terms and the whole Lagrangian has an additional $Z_3$ symmetry. This…
This article presents a search for flavour-changing neutral currents in the decay of a top quark into an up-type ($q = c, u$) quark and a Higgs boson, where the Higgs boson decays into two photons. The proton--proton collision data set…
We examine extensions of the MSSM with more than one generation of Higgs bosons. If one assumes that a symmetry eliminates the tree-level FCNC, then the extra scalar bosons do not acquire VEVs, do not couple to fermions and do not mix with…
The anomaly of the top quark forward-backward asymmetry $A^t_{FB}$ observed at the Tevatron can be explained by the t-channel exchange of a neutral gauge boson (Z') which has sizable flavor changing coupling for top and up quarks. This…
The dimuon and dielectron data from the Tevatron $\bar pp$ collider are used to probe for heavy quarks, which decay dominantly via flavour changing neutral current. Depending on whether the $FCNC$ decay occurs at the tree or loop level, one…
Flavour-violating Higgs interactions are suppressed in the Standard Model such that their observation would be a clear sign of new physics. We investigate the prospects for detecting quark flavour-violating Higgs decays in the clean ILC…
The rare top decay t-> c l+l-, which involves flavor violation, is studied as a possible probe of new physics. This decay is analyzed with the simplest Standard Model extensions with additional gauge symmetry formalism. The considered…
We briefly review the studies on the top quark FCNC processes at a next-generation linear collider. Such processes, including various FCNC top quark rare decays and top-charm associated productions, are extremely suppressed in the standard…
We present a general phenomenological analysis of a class of Two Higgs Doublet Models with Flavor Changing Neutral Currents arising at the tree level. The existing constraints mainly affect the couplings of the first two generations of…
Searches for flavor changing neutral current (FCNC) processes in top-quark production and decays by the ATLAS Collaboration are presented. Data collected from $pp$ collisions at the LHC at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV during 2011,…
