The multiple point criticality principle is applied to the pure Standard Model (SM), with a desert up to the Planck scale. We are thereby led to impose the constraint that the effective Higgs potential should have two degenerate minima, one…

We investigate the recent CDF measurement of the Br(B_s --> mu+mu-) which shows excess over the Standard Model. We consider minimal supergravity motivated models (mSUGRA)/CMSSM and grand unified models, SU(5) and SO(10). In the grand…

In top-bottom seesaw and topflavor model, there may exist extra Higgses and vectorlike fermions, and we have examined the W mass anomaly reported by CDF II in these frames. We found that the CDF II W-boson mass data constrains the parameter…

Searches for a scalar top quark and a scalar bottom quark have been performed using a total data sample of 56.8 pb-1 at a centre-of-mass energy of 183 GeV collected with the OPAL detector at LEP. No candidate events were observed. Combining…

Explicit expressions are derived for the oblique parameters $S$ and $T$ in certain extensions of the standard model. In particular, we consider leptoquarks and bileptons, and find phenomenological constraints on their allowed masses.…

Recent measurements like the t tbar gamma production by CDF as well as the Br(B ->Xs gamma) and ACP (B->Xs gamma) are used to constrain the magnetic and electric dipole moments of the top quark. The B->Xs gamma measurements by themselves…

We propose a top hypercharge model with gauge symmetry SU(3)_C x SU(2)_L x U(1)_1 x U(1)_2 where the first two families of the Standard Model (SM) fermions are charged under U(1)_1 while the third family is charged under U(1)_2. The U(1)_1…

Motivated by the recent determination of the top quark mass by the CDF collaboration, $\mt =174 \pm 10 ^{+13}_{-12}$ GeV, we review and update the constraints on the parameters of the quark flavour mixing matrix $V_{CKM}$ in the standard…

We re-examine the possible magnitude of the supersymmetric contribution to $R_b\equiv\Gamma(Z^0\to\bar b b)/\Gamma(Z^0\to{\rm all})$ in the light of the constraints imposed by the absence of light charginos at LEP~1.5, implementing also…

We propose an analysis of LEP constraints on radiative neutralino decays into a light gravitino, based on the plane of the Higgs mixing parameter mu and the SU(2) gaugino mass M_2. The preliminary LEP 2W constraints in the (mu, M_2) plane…

We discuss a model in which the third generation fermions undergo a different $SU(2)$ weak interaction from the first two generation fermions. In general, a flavor changing neutral current interaction is expected. Constrained by the…
