A comprehensive overview of kaon decays is presented. The Standard Model predictions are discussed in detail, covering both the underlying short-distance electroweak dynamics and the important interplay of QCD at long distances. Chiral…

We present the result of a search for the charged-lepton-flavor violating decay $\tau^- \to \mu^-\mu^+\mu^-$ using a $424fb^{-1}$ sample of data recorded by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB $e^{-}e^{+}$ collider. The selection of…

The semileptonic decays $\tau^- \to \mu^- M (M=\pi^0,\eta,\eta')$ could be sensitive probe for new physics scenarios with lepton flavor violation(LFV). Motivated by the recent Belle measurement, we investigate these decays in type III…

The decay width, forward-backward asymmetry and tau lepton longitudinal and transversal polarization for the exclusive (B -> K tau^+ tau^-) decay in a two Higgs doublet model are computed. It is shown that the forward-backward asymmetry and…

We improve the current predictions of the standard model for neutron beta decay observables and compare them with the currently available ones. Next we study their implications in the possible detection of new physics. We discuss where the…

This Letter presents a search for a heavy neutral particle decaying into an opposite-sign different-flavor dilepton pair, $e^\pm \mu^\mp$, $e^\pm \tau^\mp$, or $\mu^\pm \tau^\mp$ using 20.3 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data at $\sqrt{s} = 8$…

This write-up is intended to form part of the proceedings for Lepton-Photon 2023. We review the decays $b\rightarrow c \ell \bar \nu_\ell$ (where $\ell \in \{e,\mu,\tau\}$) as well as $b\rightarrow s \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $b\rightarrow s e^+…

The Standard Model of particle physics currently provides our best description of fundamental particles and their interactions. The theory predicts that the different charged leptons, the electron, muon and tau, have identical electroweak…

We study Z--> l^+ l^- and W--> nu_l l^+ decays in the standard model including the noncommutative effects. We observe that these effects appear in the flavor dependent part of the decay widths of the processes under consideration and…

Some models for the lepton sector, based on seesaw extensions of the Standard Model, are discussed in which the mu-tau interchange symmetry is realized in various ways. The symmetries defining such models and their characteristic…

The reconstruction of tau-pair production, $e^{+}e^{-} \to \tau^{+}\tau^{-}$, from the subsequent 3-prong ($\tau^{+} \rightarrow \pi^{+} \pi^{-} \pi^{+} \bar{\nu}_{\tau}$) and 1-prong ($\tau^{-} \to \ell^{-} \bar{\nu}_{\ell} \nu_{\tau}$,…

We present a search for the decay B+ -->tau+ nu using 467.8 x 10^6 B B pairs collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the BaBar detector at the SLAC PEP-II B-Factory. We select a sample of events with one completely reconstructed B- in the…

A search for the decay of the tau lepton to five charged and two neutral pions is performed using data collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. The analysis uses 232 fb-1 of data at center-of-mass…

We report the first measurement of the $\tau$ lepton polarization $P_\tau(D^*)$ in the decay $\bar{B} \rightarrow D^* \tau^- \bar{\nu}_\tau$ as well as a new measurement of the ratio of the branching fractions $R(D^{*}) = \mathcal{B}(\bar…

We introduce a new method to search for the lepton-flavor violating Higgs decays $h\rightarrow\tau\mu$ and $h\rightarrow\tau e$ in the leptonic $\tau$ decay channel. In particular, the Standard Model background is estimated in a fully data…

This Fifth International WEIN Symposium is devoted to physics beyond the standard model. This talk is about tau lepton physics, but I begin with the question: do we know how to find new physics in the world of elementary particles? This…
