The low-energy manifestations of a minimal extension of the electroweak standard model based on the quark-lepton symmetry $SU(4)_V \otimes SU(2)_L \otimes G_R$ of the Pati--Salam type are analyzed. Given this symmetry the third type of…
We consider an extension of the standard electroweak theory with gauge group $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{\tilde{Y}}$, where the gauge bosons of the extra $SU(2)_R$ factor do not couple to ordinary fermions. We show that precision…
We discuss about a possibility of large electro-weak penguin contribution in B -> K pi from recent experimental data. The several relations among the branching ratios which realize when the contributions from tree type and electro-weak…
We review the current status of precision electroweak measurements and the constraints they impose on new physics. We perform a model independent analysis using the STU-formalism of Ref. 1, and then discuss how the Z-pole data from LEP and…
The pure annihilation type decays $B^0_d\to\phi\gamma$ and $B_s\to\rho\gamma$ receive only color suppressed penguin contributions with a very small branching ratio in the standard model. When we include the previously neglected…
The Standard Model does not provide a very good fit to the most recent precision electroweak data from LEP, due primarily to the observed branching ratios for $Z$ decay to $b\bar b$ and $c\bar c$. The possibility that an extension of the…
The measurements resulting from the analysis of the LEP2 data have brought more strong evidence in support of the standard electroweak model. In particular the LEP2 data has revealed (i) the first determination of the SU(2) gauge bosons…
The superstring-inspired E_6 model is reduced to the supersymmetric standard model extended by a specific U(1) factor. This choice allows for the existence of naturally light singlet neutrinos which also mix with the known three doublet…
We study the five-body decays $\mu^- \to e^- e^+ e^- \nu_{\mu} \bar{\nu}_{e}$ and $\tau^- \to \ell^- \ell'^+\ell'^-\nu_{\tau}\bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ for $\ell, \ell'=e, \mu$ within the Standard Model (SM) and in a general effective field theory…
We attempt to go beyond the standard electroweak theory by replacing SU(2) with its q-deformation: SU_q(2). This step introduces new degrees of freedom that we interpret as indicative of non-locality and as a possible basis for a solitonic…
In the past decade, electroweak penguin decays have provided a number of precision measurements, turning into one of the most competitive ways to search for New Physics that describe beyond the Standard Model phenomena. An overview of the…
We report a search for the flavor-changing neutral current decay $B \to X_{s} \ell^{+} \ell^{-}$ using a 29.5 fb$^{-1}$ data sample accumulated at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB $e^{+}e^{-}$ storage ring.…
The apparent tensions emerging from the comparison of experimental data of the anomalous magnetic moments of the muon and electron to the Standard Model predictions ($\Delta a_{\mu,e}$) could be interpreted as a potential signal of New…
We show that the U(1)-prime models linked with the seesaw mechanism at TeV scale can lead to a successful baryogenesis through soft leptogenesis with a resonant behavior in the B parameter. Such a consideration constrains the Z-prime mass…
The scalar composite representations of the electroweak symmetry group of the Standard Model are exhibited in the case of two generations of quarks. The link between `strong' and `electroweak' eigenstates is investigated, showing that the…
Charmless B decay modes $B \to \pi \pi, \pi K$ and $KK$ aresystematically investigated with and without flavor SU(3) symmetry. Independent analyses on $\pi \pi$ and $\pi K$ modes both favor a large ratio between color-suppressed tree ($C$)…
$Z^\prime$ models belong to the ones that can most easily explain the anomalies in $b\to s \mu^+\mu^-$ transitions. However, such an explanation by a single $Z^\prime$ gauge boson, as done in the literature, is severly constrained by the…
The new precise LEP measurements of alphas and the electroweak mixing angle as well as the new LEP II mass limits for supersymmetric particles and new calculations for the radiative (penguin) decay of the b-quark into sgamma allow a further…
We analyze the lepton flavor violating decays $\tau\rightarrow Pl$ ($P=\pi,\eta,\eta';\;l=e,\mu$) in the scenario of the minimal R-symmetric supersymmetric standard model. The prediction on the branching ratios BR$(\tau\rightarrow P e)$ and…
We consider a model for the electroweak interactions with $SU(3)_L\otimes U(1)_N$ gauge symmetry. We show that, it is the conservation of $F=L+B$ which forbids massive neutrinos and the neutrinoless double beta decay, $(\beta\beta)_{0\nu}$.…
