Taking the supersymmetric inverse seesaw mechanism as the explanation for neutrino oscillation data, we investigate charged lepton flavor violation in radiative and 3-body lepton decays as well as in neutrinoless $\mu-e$ conversion in…
We provide a general analysis of time reversal invariance violation in the exclusive semileptonic B decays B to D l nu and B to D* l nu. Measurements of the lepton and D* polarizations can be used to search for and identify non-standard…
CP violation in the spin-spin correlations in chargino production and subsequent two-body decay into a tau and a tau-sneutrino is studied at the ILC. From the normal polarisation of the tau, an asymmetry is defined to test the CP-violating…
Phenomenological issues of no-scale structure of K\"{a}hler potential are re-examined, which arises in various approaches to supersymmetry breaking. When no-scale boundary conditions are given at the Grand Unified scale and universal…
In this thesis we try to discuss certain phenomenological aspects of an R-parity violating non-minimal supersymmetric model, called $\mu\nu$SSM. We show that $\mu\nu$SSM can provide a solution to the $\mu$-problem of supersymmetry and can…
The experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have pushed the limits on masses of supersymmetric particles beyond the $\sim$TeV scale. This compromises naturalness of the simplest supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model, the…
In R-parity-violating supersymmetry the lightest neutralino can be very light, even massless. For masses in the range $500$ MeV$\lesssim m_{\tilde\chi^0_1}\lesssim 4.5$ GeV the neutralino can be produced in hadron collisions from rare meson…
In theories with gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking, the scalar tau, (${\tilde \tau_1}$) is the lightest observable superpartner for part of the parameter space. At LEP 2, the production of such a $\tilde \tau_1$ pair and their…
In this paper we propose indirect probes of the scale of supersymmetry breaking, through observations in the Extreme Universe Space Observatory onboard Japanese Experiment Module (JEM-EUSO). We consider scenarios where the lightest…
The leptonic decay $B_s \to \mu^+\mu^-$ is both rare and theoretically clean, making it an excellent probe for New Physics searches. Due to its helicity suppression in the Standard Model, this decay is particularly sensitive to new…
We compute supersymmetric contributions to pion leptonic (\pi_{l2}) decays in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). When R-parity is conserved, the largest contributions to the ratio R_{e/\mu} = \Gamma[ \pi^+ \to e^+…
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…
In this work, we study the lepton number violating tau decays via intermediate on-shell Majorana neutrinos $N_j$ into two scalar mesons and a lepton $\tau^{\pm} \to M_1{}^{\pm} N_j \to M_1^{\pm} M_2^{\pm} \ell^{\mp}$. We calculate the…
In supersymmetric (SUSY) models the misalignment between fermion and sfermion families introduces unsuppressed flavor-changing processes. Even if the mass parameters are chosen to give no flavor violation, family dependent radiative…
We consider an extension of the supersymmetric standard model which includes singlet Higgs superfield representations (in three generations) to generate neutrino masses via the see-saw mechanism. The resulting theory may then exhibit…
Strong upper bounds are derived on certain product combinations of lepton nonconserving couplings in the minimal supersymmetric standard model with explicit $R$-parity violation. The input is information from rare leptonic decays of the…

I review the bounds on the $R$-parity-violating supersymmetric Yukawa couplings from the considerations of proton stability, $n$--$\bar{n}$ oscillation, $\nu_e$-Majorana mass, neutrino-less double $\beta$ decay, charged-current…
In recent times, several hints of lepton non-universality have been observed in semileptonic $B$ meson decays, both in the charged-current ($b \to c l \bar \nu_l$) and neutral-current ($b \to s ll $) transitions. Motivated by these…
The tau neutrino is probably the least studied particle in the SM, with only a handful of interaction events being identified so far. This can in part be attributed to their small production rate in the SM, which occurs mainly through D_s…
