Strong mixing between right-handed strange and beauty squarks is a possible solution to the CP violation discrepancy in $B\to \phi K_S$ decay as recently suggested by the Belle data. In this scenario, thanks to the strong mixing one of the…
We evaluate constraints from flavor changing rare meson decays to a light vector boson $X$, followed by the decay of the on-shell $X$ into the SM fermions. The flavor changing meson decay emitting the light $X$ is induced by loop processes…
We consider the decays of a $B_s$-meson into a pair of lightest supersymmetric particles (LSP) in the minimal supersymmetric standard model. It is found that the parameter space for light LSP's in the range of 1 GeV can be appreciably…
A wide variety of unified models predict asymptotic relations at $M_{GUT}$ between the b quark and $\tau$ lepton Yukawa couplings. Within the framework of supersymmetric SU(4) $\times$ SU(2)$_L \times$ SU(2)$_R$, we explore regions of the…
\def\nle{{\stackrel{<}{\sim}}} We examine a possibility for existence of a light supersymmetric partner of the top quark (stop) with mass 15 $\sim$ 16 GeV in the framework of the minimal supergravity GUT model. Such light stop could explain…
The possible existence of bulk singlet neutrinos in the scenario with large compactified dimensions and low string scale $M_*$ has important consequences for low-energy observables. We demonstrate that intergenerational mass splitting and…
Flavor-specific scalar bosons exist in various Standard Model extensions and couple to a single generation of fermions via a global flavor symmetry breaking mechanism. Given this strategy, we propose a MeV flavor-specific scalar model in…
We study the signals for supersymmetry at the Tevatron and DiTevatron ($\sqrt{s}=4\TeV$) in various well-motivated supersymmetric models. We consider the trilepton signature in the decay of pair-produced charginos and neutralinos, the…
Because of their Yukawa interactions, third generation squarks may be substantially lighter than those of the first two generations. Assuming that $\tb_1 \to b\tz_1$ and $\tz_1$ escapes experimental detection, we show that experiments at…
The 750 GeV diphoton excess reported by ATLAS and CMS indicates the presence of several pairs of the vector-like matter multiplets around TeV scale. If that is the case, radiative corrections from the $SU(3)$ gauge interaction significantly…
We study the flavour changing neutral Higgs boson decays that can be induced from genuine supersymmetric particles at the one-loop level and within the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We consider all the possible…
The production rate of bottom quarks at hadron colliders exceeds the expectations of next-to-leading order perturbative quantum chromodynamics. An additional contribution from pair-production of light gluinos, of mass 12 to 16 GeV, with…
B mesons are bound states of a b quark and a light anti-quark. While the binding is provided by the strong interaction B mesons can only decay by the weak interaction. Since the top quark mass is large, B mesons are the only mesons…
A gluino in the mass range 12--16 GeV combined with a light (2--5.5 GeV) bottom squark, as has been proposed recently to explain an excess of b quark hadroproduction, would affect the momentum-scale dependence (``running'') of the strong…
We study the effect of squark-generation mixing on gluino decays in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). We show that due to the effect the quark-flavor violating (QFV) gluino decay branching ratio B(gluino -> c bar{t} (t…
We argue that the diphoton excess recently reported by ATLAS and CMS can be explained, along with several anomalies seen in the flavor sector, in models where a Standard-Model singlet scalar resonance with mass $M \approx 750$ GeV is…
The existence of neutrino masses strongly suggests that right-handed neutrinos exist, but the data do not favor any particular scale for the Majorana mass parameters. Here I explore the possibility that these particles exist at the…
We searched for scalar bottom quarks in 156 pb$^{-1}$ of {\bf $\bar{p}p$} collisions at {\bf $\sqrt{s}=1.96$} TeV recorded by the CDF II experiment at the Tevatron. Scalar bottom quarks can be produced from gluino decays in R-parity…
The flavor changing top quark decays t -> cV (V=Z,photon,gluon) induced by R-parity-violating couplings in the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) are evaluated. We find that the decays t -> cV can be significantly enhanced…
The decay $b\to s\nu\bar{\nu}$ is discussed in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with general flavor mixing for squarks, at large $\tan\beta$. In this case, in addition to the chargino loop contributions which were analyzed in…
