We study the decay B\to X_s\gamma in a minimal extension of the standard model with extra up- and down-type quarks whose left- and right-handed components are both SU(2) singlets. Constraints on the extended Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix…
The recent CLEO results on on radiative $b$-quark decays are used to derive constraints on anomalous $WW\gamma$ couplings. These constraints are compared with expectations from $p\bar p\rightarrow e^\pm p\llap/_T\gamma+X$ at the Tevatron.…
In some supergravity models, the superlight gravitino is accompanied by a light weakly coupled scalar (S) and pseudo-scalar (P) particle. The coupling of these particles to matter is inversely proportional to the product of the gravitino…
Certain string-inspired Z' models have non-universal interactions to three families of fermions and induced tree-level flavor-changing couplings. We use recent results on B_s-anti-B_s mixing to constrain the size of the flavor-changing…
After briefly reviewing the status of the $B$-physics anomalies, describing the challenges of building a scenario of physics beyond the Standard Model that can accommodate the observed departures from lepton flavor universality, I discuss a…
The minimal supersymmetric model with light sbottom ($\sim m_b$) and light gluino (12 $\sim$ 16 GeV) can explain the excess of bottom quark production cross section at hadron colliders and has drawn much attention. We calculate one-loop…
If one has Abelian flavor symmetry, $s_R$-$b_R$ mixing could be near maximal. This can drive a "strange-beauty" squark ($\widetilde{sb}_{1}$) to be rather light, but still evade the $b\to s\gamma$ constraint. Low energy constraints imply…
In this work, we study the lepton flavor and lepton number violating $B_{c}$ meson decays via two intermediate on-shell Majorana neutrinos $N_j$ into two charged leptons and a charged pion $B_{c}^{\pm} \to \mu^{\pm} \ N_j \to \mu^{\pm}…
Pair production of light top squarks at the 8-TeV LHC can be used to probe the gaugino-Higgsino sector of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. The case where the lightest neutralino is a mixture of Bino and Higgsino, satisfying the…
The results of a search for pair production of light top squarks are presented, using 4.7 fb^-1 of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV proton-proton collisions collected with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. This search targets top squarks with…
We discuss the generalization of the Callan-Klebanov model to the case of heavy quark baryons. The light flavor group is considered to be $SU(3)$ and the limit of heavy spin symmetry is taken. The presence of the Wess-Zumino-Witten term…
Recent CMS analyses report an excess in the diphoton-plus-$b \bar{b}$ channel, indicative of a heavy resonance around 650 GeV decaying into a Standard Model (SM)-like Higgs boson and a lighter scalar near 95 GeV. The case for a 95 GeV state…
We discuss the upper bound on the gluino mass in supersymmetric models with vector-like extra matters. In order to realize the observed Higgs mass of 125 GeV, the gluino mass is bounded from above in supersymmetric models. With the…
The quark and lepton mass matrices possess approximate flavor symmetries. Several results follow if the interactions of new scalars possess these approximate symmetries. Present experimental bounds allow these exotic scalars to have a weak…
We search for physics beyond the standard model using events with a photon, two or more hadronic jets, and an apparent imbalance in transverse energy, in $p\bar{p}$ collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron at $\sqrt{s}=1.8$ TeV. Such events are…
We explore the connection of the leptoquark solution to the recently reported $B$-meson anomalies with a mechanism of neutrino mass generation and a viable dark matter candidate. We consider a model consisting of two scalar leptoquarks and…
We examine the implications of the hypothesis that the decays of the b-quark occur via pure right-handed couplings. We show that the existing lower limits on neutrinoless double beta decay imply that any gauge model realizing this idea must…
We show that the bosonic decays of the lighter top and bottom squarks, i.e. t~_1 -> b~_1 + (H^+ or W^+) and b~_1 -> t~_1 + (H^- or W^-), can be dominant in a wide range of the MSSM parameters. Compared to the fermionic decays, such as t~_1…
