We propose a flavour structure for the leptonic sector of the Standard Model, based on the idea of universality of Yukawa couplings, which accommodates all the experimental data on neutrino masses and mixing, at the same time predicting…
We propose a scheme in that the masses of the heavier leptons obey seesaw type relations. The light lepton masses, except the electron and the electron neutrino ones are generated by one loop level radiative corrections. We work in a…
We calculate the cross section for the production of pairs of scalar leptoquarks (sleptoquarks) in a supersymmetric $E_6$ model, at hadron colliders. We estimate higher order corrections by including $\pi^2$ terms induced by soft-gluon…
We consider an extension of the Georgi-Glashow SU(5) GUT model by a 45-dimensional scalar and a 24-dimensional fermionic representation, where the latter leads to the generation of the observed light neutrino masses via a combination of a…
We use the idea of partial compositeness in a minimal supersymmetric model to relate the fermion and sfermion masses. By assuming that the Higgs and third-generation matter is (mostly) elementary, while the first- and second-generation…
A search for pair production of vector-like leptons coupling to first- and second-generation Standard Model leptons is presented. The search is based on a dataset of proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV recorded with the ATLAS…
A search is presented for $\tau$ slepton pairs produced in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The search is carried out in events containing two $\tau$ leptons in the final state, on the assumption that each…
The observed hierarchy of quark and lepton masses and mixings may be obtained by adding an abelian family symmetry to the Minimal Supersymmetric Model and coupling quarks and leptons to an electroweak singlet scalar field. In a large class…
We study a hybrid model in which the Technicolor and fundamental heavy scalars live together. We concern extreme case, where electroweak symmetry breaking (EWSB) comes almost entirely from the strong dynamics of Technicolor, but the masses…
We investigate the radiative generation of lepton masses and mixing angles in the Standard Model extended by one right-handed neutrino and one extra Higgs doublet. We assume approximate rank-1 Yukawa couplings at a high energy scale and we…
The mass matrices of the charged leptons and neutrinos, previously derived in a minimal S_3-invariant extension of the Standard Model, were reparametrized in terms of their eigenvalues. We obtained explicit, analytical expressions for all…
In this paper we propose an ansatz that applies to the slepton mass matrices. In our approach these matrices contain a dominant sector that can be diagonalized exactly. We study the numerical results for the slepton mass eigenstates,…
We study the lepton flavour conserving and violating couplings of a doubly charged scalar at a 3 TeV muon collider. Using a model independent Lagrangian, we analyse the electron electron, muon muon, and tau tau final states mediated by the…
A search for the electroweak production of charginos, neutralinos and sleptons decaying into final states involving two or three electrons or muons is presented. The analysis is based on 36.1 fb$^{-1}$ of $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV proton-proton…
We study the prospects for detecting the sleptons of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model at hadron colliders and supercolliders. We use ISAJET 7.03 to simulate charged slepton and sneutrino pair production, incorporating slepton and…
We propose a measurement of the top Yukawa coupling at a 100 TeV hadron collider, based on boosted Higgs and top decays. We find that the top Yukawa coupling can be measured to 1%, with excellent handles for reducing systematic and…
Fermion masses and mixing, both in the quark and leptonic sector, are discussed within the approach to the Yukawa puzzle proposed by Arkani-Hamed and Schmaltz. In the quark sector we have shown that at least two extra dimensions are…
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…
The capability of string theories to reproduce at low energy the observed pattern of quark and lepton masses and mixing angles is examined, focusing the attention on orbifold constructions, where the magnitude of Yukawa couplings depends on…
The hierarchy of the Yukawa couplings is an outstanding problem of the standard model. We present a class of models in which the first and second generation fermions are SUSY partners of pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons that parameterize a…
