$Z^\prime$ 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 experimental values of $R_b$ and $R_c$ are the only data which do not seem to agree with Standard Model predictions. Although it is still premature to draw any definite conclusions, it is timely to look for new physics which could…
$T$--violating asymmetry in chargino pair production processes is studied in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. The asymmetry emerges at the tree level in the production of two different charginos,and could be as large as of order…
Parity violation in QCD process is studied using helicity dependent top quark pair productions at Large Hadron Collider experiment. Though no violation can be found in the standard model (SM), new physics beyond the SM predicts the…
We update the bounds on $R$-parity violating supersymmetry originating from meson oscillations in the $B^0_{d/s}$ and $K^0$ systems. To this end, we explicitly calculate all corresponding contributions from $R$-parity violating operators at…
The smallness of the quark and lepton parameters and the hierarchy between them could be the result of selection rules due to a horizontal symmetry broken by a small parameter. The same selection rules apply to baryon number violating…
We consider the possibility of neutrino mass generation in a supersymmetric model where lepton number can be violated by odd units. The different patterns of mixing in the quark and lepton sectors are attributed to the persence of…
We propose a new mechanism in which the generation of the supersymmetric $\mu $-term as well charged lepton masses is closely tied to R-parity violation involving heavy vector-like families . A realistic example based on $SU(3)_c\times…
The fate of R-parity in supersymmetric theories is discussed in detail. We make a strong case for R-parity violation showing that the simplest theories based on the local B-L symmetry predict the spontaneous breaking of R-parity at the SUSY…
Baryogenesis appears to require lepton number violation. This is naturally realized in extensions of the standard model containing right-handed neutrinos. We discuss the generation of a baryon asymmetry by the out-of-equilibrium decay of…
In minimal left-right symmetric theories, the requirement of parity invariance allows only one complex phase in the Higgs potential and one in the Yukawa couplings, leading to a two-phase theory with both spontaneous and explicit CP…
Here we propose models with $SU(2)_L\otimes SU(2)_R\otimes U(1)_{B-L}$ electroweak gauge symmetry in which parity (or charge conjugation) is broken explicitly and the interactions of left- and right-handed fermions are completely different…
The patterns of R violation resulting from imposition of a gauged U(1) horizontal symmetry, on the minimal supersymmetric standard model are systematically analyzed. We concentrate on a class of models with integer U(1) charges chosen to…
Generically, non-Standard-Model particles contribute to processes with order-one charge-parity (CP) violating phases, as CP is not a fundamental symmetry of nature. The exploration of CP violation becomes therefore a sensitive search for…
We investigate the possible role that baryon number violating Yukawa interactions may take in the inclusive decay $ B \to X_s \gamma$. The constraints, derived using the experimental results of the CLEO collaboration, turn out, in many…
We consider a possibility that $R$-parity violating interactions of particles which do not involve the first generation have large (up to 1) coupling constants, $\Lambda$. Such couplings, if exist, could have a number of phenomenological…
We study $t \bar t$ production in R-parity violating supersymmetry. The annihilation channel $q \bar q \rightarrow t \bar t$ gets new contributions from $t$-channel exchange of squarks or sleptons. With the data from Tevatron on $t \bar t$…
We consider recently observed neutrinoless double beta decay in the context of the minimal supersymmetric standard model with R-parity violating couplings lambda^{'}. We observe that most of the current experimental bounds on the R-parity…
We present a new way to break parity symmetry in left-right symmetric models using boundary conditions on the fields residing in the fifth dimension. We also discuss the connection between the limits on the size of extra dimensions and the…
We demonstrate that the R-parity breaking interactions within their current experimental upper bounds can give rise to large mixing-induced CP asymmetry in exclusive radiative B decays that may be detectable in the upcoming B factories.
