We extend the approach based on the light-cone expansion and the heavy quark effective theory to the inclusive semileptonic decay of an unpolarized $b$-flavored hadron. It is applied to calculate the semileptonic decay width of the…
Since baryon number B and lepton number L are no longer automatically conserved once the standard model is extended to include supersymmetry, the usually assumed conservation of R parity is an imposed condition. For a more satisfactory…
By applying Noether method to N=1 local supersymmetry in eleven dimensions, we obtained two candidates of R^4 corrections to the supergravity. The bosonic parts of these two completely match with the results obtained by type IIA string…
The persistent tensions between inclusive and exclusive determinations of $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$ weaken the power of theoretically clean rare $K$ and $B$ decays in the search for new physics (NP). We demonstrate how this uncertainty can…
Recently the ATLAS Collaboration at CERN reported on the measurement of the branching ratio R(Lambda_b) = Gamma(Lambda_b(0) -> psi(2S) Lambda(0))/Gamma(Lambda_b(0) -> J/psi Lambda(0)). The measured branching ratio R(Lambda_b) = 0.501 pm…
We show that superheavy threshold corrections in the New Minimal Supersymmetric GUT based on the SO(10) Higgs system ${\bf{210\oplus 126\oplus {\bar {126}}\oplus 10 \oplus 120}} $ can comfortably correct the prediction for the value of…
Depending on their masses, Supersymmetric particles can affect various measurements in Z decay. Among these are the total width (or consequent extracted value of $\alpha_s$), enhancement or suppression of various flavors, and left-right and…
In a previous work (arXiv:0902.3750 [hep-th]) we studied the world-sheet conformal invariance for superstrings in type IIB R-R plane-wave in semi-light-cone gauge. Here we give further justification to the results found in that work through…
Analysis of the SUSY spectrum in supergravity unified models is given under the naturalness criterion that the universal scalar mass $(m_0)$ and the gluino mass $(m_{\tilde g})$ satisfy the constraint $m_0, m_{\tilde g}$ less than or equal…
Assuming that the actual values of $m_t$ and the data set ($\Gamma_b$, $\Gamma_h$, $\Gamma_Z$, $R_b$, $R_c$, $R_l$) are within their $1-\sigma$ errors as reported by CDF, D0 and by LEP Collaborations, the parameter $\Delta^{new}_b$ which…
We discuss a rate asymmetry for the radiative $B$-meson decay $B \to X_s \gamma$ within the framework of the supersymmetric standard model based on N=1 supergravity. This model contains new sources of CP violation. In spite of severe…
We study effects of supersymmetric particles in various rare B decay processes as well as in the unitarity triangle analysis. We consider three different supersymmetric models, the minimal supergravity, SU(5) SUSY GUT with right-handed…
We establish a supersymmetric consistent truncation of type IIB supergravity on the T^{1,1} coset space, based on extending the Papadopoulos-Tseytlin ansatz to the full set of SU(2)xSU(2) invariant Kaluza-Klein modes. The five-dimensional…
We construct a huge number of anomaly-free models of six-dimensional N = (1,0) gauged supergravity. The gauge groups are products of U(1) and SU(2), and every hyperino is charged under some of the gauge groups. It is also found that the…
To obtain the most accurate predictions for the Higgs masses in the minimal supersymmetric model (MSSM), one should compute the full set of one-loop radiative corrections, resum the large logarithms to all orders, and add the dominant…
The 2.6 sigma deviation in the muon's anomalous magnetic moment has strong implications for supersymmetry. In the most model-independent analysis to date, we consider gaugino masses with arbitrary magnitude and phase, and sleptons with…
We calculate the Lamb, fine and hyperfine shifts in $b\bar b$ with $n=2$, $l=0,1$. Radiative corrections as well as leading nonperturbative corrections (known to be due to the gluon condensate) are taken into account. The calculation is…
Recently, several $B$-physics experiments have reported an appreciable deviation from the Standard Model (SM) in the tree-level observables $R_{D^{(*)}}$; the combined weighted average now stands at $\approx 4 \sigma$. We first show the…
We examine supersymmetric solutions of N=2, D=5 gauged supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of abelian vector multiplets using the spinorial geometry method. By making use of methods developed in hep-th/0606049 to analyse preons in…
