The interaction between the dark $U(1)_d$ sector with the visible Standard Model (SM) sector takes place through the kinetic mixing between the dark photon $U(1)_d$ field $Z_d^\mu$ and the SM $U(1)_Y$ gauge field $B_\mu$. After the…

An extension of the Standard Model by three singlet fermions with masses smaller than the electroweak scale allows to explain simultaneously neutrino oscillations, dark matter and baryon asymmetry of the Universe. We discuss the properties…
It has now become possible to observe appreciable numbers of hadronically produced lepton pairs in mass ranges where the contributions of the photon and $Z^0$ are comparable. Consequently, in the reaction $p \bar p \to \ell^- \ell^+ +…

The anomalous magnetic moment of a lepton encodes the fraction of the lepton's interaction strength with an external magnetic field, which is generated by quantum corrections. Lepton anomalous magnetic moments are sensitive probes of…
It is shown that in extensions of the standard model of quarks and leptons where additive lepton number $L$ is broken by two units, so that $Z_2$ lepton parity, i.e. $(-1)^L$ which is either even or odd, remains exactly conserved, there is…
We report the results of a calculation of the response of cold neutron matter to neutral-current interactions with low energy neutrinos, carried out using an effective interaction and effective operators consistently derived within the…
The low-energy effective field theory (LEFT) provides the appropriate framework to describe particle interactions below the scale of electroweak symmetry breaking, $\mu_w\sim v$. By matching the Standard Model onto the LEFT, non-zero Wilson…

Parity-violating elastic electron-nucleon scattering at low momentum transfer allows one to access the nucleon's weak charge, the vector coupling of the $Z$-boson to the nucleon. In the Standard Model and at tree level, the weak charge of…
