To explore the discovery possibilities of a high-energy muon-proton collider, we examine signals that could arise from direct-channel formation of supersymmetric-particle resonances through operators that do not respect R-parity.
We analyze the effect of R-parity violation in the minimal supersymmetric standard model on the CP asymmetries in $b\to s \gamma$ decay. The direct and mixing-induced CP asymmetries arising from the lepton number violating couplings are…
The most general supersymmetric model contains baryon number violating terms of the form $\lm_{ijk}\ \ov{D}_i\ \ov{D}_j\ \ov{U}_k$ in the superpotential. We reconsider the bounds on these couplings, assuming that lepton number conservation…
We derive the upper bounds on certain products of R-parity- and lepton-flavor-violating couplings from the decays of the neutral $B$ meson into two charged leptons. These modes of $B^0$ decays can constrain the product combinations of the…
The nature of R-parity violating interactions in two classes of string inspired supersymmetric grand unified theories (SISUSY GUT), based on the gauge groups $SO(10)$ (and its subgroup $SU(2)_L\times SU(2)_R\times SU(4)_c\equiv G_{224}$) as…
Determinations of vuds with super-allowed Fermi beta-decay in nuclei and of the weak charge of the cesium in atomic parity-violation deviate from the Standard Model predicitions by 2 sigma or more. In both cases, the Standard Model…
We discuss lepton flavour violating signals at the LHC in the framework of supersymmetric theories. We consider R-parity conserving as well as R-parity violating scenarios. In the case of R-parity conservation we show that in decays of…
Recently, the CDF and D{\O} collaborations have claimed that the CP violating phase in $B_s^0-\bar{B}_s^0$ mixing is large, which is contrary to the expectations in the Standard Model. Such a large phase suggests New Physics contributions…
In supersymmetric scenarios with broken R-parity, baryon number violating sparticle decays become possible. In order to search for such decays, a good understanding of expected event properties is essential. We here develop a complete…
We examine the possibility that the high-Q^2 events seen at HERA are due to the production and decay of squarks of R-parity violating supersymmetry. The relevant R-parity violating coupling(s) is identified and shown to lie between 0.03 and…
Mixing between bosons that transform differently under the standard model gauge group, but identically under its unbroken subgroup, can induce interactions that violate the total lepton number. We discuss four-fermion operators that mediate…
We propose a theoretical framework for R-parity violation. It is realized by a class of Calabi--Yau compactification of Heterotic string theory. Trilinear R-parity violation in superpotential is either absent or negligibly small without an…
We perform a critical reassessment of the constraints on the R-parity and baryon number violating (s)top couplings coming from flavor physics. In particular, we study K0-K0bar mixing, including QCD corrections and a class of diagrams that…
We investigate the role of R-parity violating interaction in the non-leptonic decays of B mesons into two light mesons B --> PP. The decay amplitudes are calculated using the QCD improved factorization method. Using the combined data on B…
Supersymmetric scenarios with R-parity conservation are becoming very constrained due to the lack of missing energy signals, thus motivating those scenarios with R-parity violation. In view of this, we consider a supersymmetric model with…
We show that supersymmetric $R$-parity breaking ($\not R_p$) interactions always result in Flavor Changing Neutral Current (FCNC) processes. Within a single coupling scheme, these processes can be avoided in either the charge $+2/3$ or the…
Extensions of the standard model with low-energy supersymmetry generically allow baryon- and lepton-number violating operators of dimension four and five, yielding rapid proton decay. The dimension-four operators are usually forbidden by…
We investigate the possibility of obtaining sizeable R-parity breaking interactions violating baryon number but not lepton number within supersymmetric grand unified theories. Such a possibility allows to ameliorate the naturalness status…
A search for pair-produced scalar fermions under the assumption that R-parity is not conserved has been performed using data collected with the OPAL detector at LEP. The data samples analysed correspond to an integrated luminosity of about…
We present constraints on products of two leptoquark (LQ) coupling constants. The bounds are obtained from meson decays, in particular leptonic \pi, K, D, D_s, B, B_s decays. Furthermore semileptonic meson decays and mixing in neutral meson…
