We continue our endeavor to investigate lepton number violating (LNV) processes at low energy in the framework of effective field theory (EFT). In this work we study the LNV tau decays $\tau^+\rightarrow \ell^-P_i^{+}P_j^{+}$, where…
Baryon number is an accidental symmetry of the Standard Model at the Lagrangian level. Its violation is arguably one of the most compelling phenomena predicted by physics beyond the Standard Model. Furthermore, there is a large experimental…
This is a sequel to our recent work [1] in which we calculated the lepton number violating (LNV) $K^\pm$ decays due to contact dimension-9 (dim-9) quark-lepton effective interactions that are induced at a high energy scale. In this work we…
This is the first paper of our systematic efforts on lepton number violating (LNV) hadronic decays in the effective field theory approach. These decays provide information complementary to popular nuclear neutrinoless double-$\beta$…
We develop a systematic effective field theory framework for studying $|\Delta B|=2$ interactions across energy scales. Using chiral symmetry, we construct the complete and non-redundant set of operators governing these interactions at low…
Baryon number-violating processes arise generically in many extensions of the Standard Model, with Grand Unified Theories providing the most compelling realizations. Ongoing experimental searches at JUNO, Hyper-K, and DUNE motivate a more…
The search for baryon-number-violating (BNV) nucleon decay provides an intriguing probe of new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). Future neutrino experiments will improve the sensitivity to BNV nucleon decays and can serve to search…
In this letter, we use LHC data from the Drell-Yan processes $pp\to\ell_i\ell_j$ (with $i\neq j$) to derive model-independent upper limits on lepton-flavor-violating meson decays. Our analysis is based on an Effective Field Theory (EFT)…
The search for baryon-number-violating (BNV) nucleon decay is an intriguing probe of new physics beyond the SM in future neutrino experiments with enhanced sensitivity. The dark sector states such as an axion or axion-like particle (ALP)…
It is known that limits on baryon-violating nucleon decays do not, in general, imply corresponding suppression of $n - \bar n$ transitions. In the context of a model with fermions propagating in higher dimensions, we investigate a related…
We search for the baryon and lepton number violating charm decays, $D \rightarrow p\ell$, where $D$ is either a $D^0$ or a $\overline{D}^0$ and $\ell$ is a muon or an electron, using a data sample of $921\,\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected by the…
Searches for $B$ mesons decaying to final states containing a baryon and a lepton are performed, where the baryon is either $\Lambda_c$ or $\Lambda$ and the lepton is a muon or an electron. These decays violate both baryon and lepton number…
Proton decay experiments typically constrain baryon number violation to the scale of grand unified theories. From a phenomenological point of view, this makes direct probing of the associated new resonances, such as the X and Y bosons, out…
We systematically investigate baryon number violating (BNV) nucleon decays into one lepton ($e,\mu,\nu/\bar\nu$) and two pseudoscalar mesons ($\pi\pi,\pi\eta,\pi K$) within the low-energy effective field theory (LEFT) framework. By…
The Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) provides a systematic framework to probe indirect effects of heavy new physics via precision measurements. While SMEFT constraints have been extensively studied using purely leptonic $Z$…
Using a data set of electron-positron collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of ${\rm 2.93~fb^{-1}}$ taken with the BESIII detector at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV, a search for the baryon ($B$) and lepton ($L$) number…
New light particles have received considerable attention in recent years. Baryon-number-violating (BNV) nucleon decays involving such light particles are able to provide stringent constraints. They exhibit distinctive experimental…
The origin of the matter-antimatter asymmetry apparently obligates the laws of physics to include some mechanism of baryon number ($\mathcal{B}$) violation. Searches for interactions violating $\mathcal{B}$ and baryon-minus-lepton number…
We consider baryon-number-violating nucleon and dinucleon decays to leptonic final states in the context of a left-right symmetric (LRS) model with large extra dimensions. Specifically, we study (a) nucleon to trilepton decays with $\Delta…
The gauge-invariant operators up to dimension six in the low-energy effective field theory below the electroweak scale are classified. There are 70 Hermitian dimension-five and 3631 Hermitian dimension-six operators that conserve baryon and…
