The rare decays $\eta^{(\prime)}\to\ell^+\ell^-$, $\ell\in\{e,\mu\}$, are highly suppressed in the Standard Model, both by their chirality structure and the required loop attaching the lepton line to the $\eta^{(\prime)}\to\gamma^*\gamma^*$…
A new approach is proposed to phenomenological study of a generic unified supergravity model, which reduces to the minimal supersymmetric standard model. The model is effectively parametrized in terms of five low energy observables. In…

In supersymmetric models a gluino can decay into $tb\tilde{\chi}^{\pm}_1$ through a stop or a sbottom. The decay chain produces an edge structure in the $m_{tb}$ distribution. Monte Carlo simulation studies show that the end point and the…
The chiral structure of supersymmetric particle couplings involving third generation Standard Model fermions depends on left-right squark and slepton mixings as well as gaugino-higgsino mixings. The shapes and intercorrelations of invariant…
Sparticle mass hierarchies will play an important role in the type of signatures that will be visible at the Large Hadron Collider. We analyze these hierarchies for the four lightest sparticles for a general class of supergravity unified…

Models with two-Higgs-doublets and natural flavour conservation contain $\tan \beta = v_2 / v_1$ as a physical parameter. We offer here a generalization of a recently proposed idea where only the Cabibbo angle, $\theta_\text{c} \simeq…
The ratio of the vacuum expectation value of the two Higgs doublets, tan(beta), is an important parameter of the general 2-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM) and the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM). The expected…
