We investigate constraints on the dark photon arising from an analysis of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) data. We perform extractions of parton distribution functions (PDFs) with and without a dark photon being present and allow the dark…
The new experimental data of kaon photoproduction on the nucleon, gamma p -> K+ Lambda, have been analyzed by means of a multipoles model. Different from the previous models, in this analysis the resonance decay widths are constrained to…
We present a search for the e+e- decay of a hypothetical dark photon, also names U vector boson, in inclusive dielectron spectra measured by HADES in the p (3.5 GeV) + p, Nb reactions, as well as the Ar (1.756 GeV/u) + KCl reaction. An…
We update the Standard Model predictions for the rare decays $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ and $K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$. In view of improved limits on $B_s$--$\bar B_s$ mixing we derive a stringent and theoretically clean Standard Model upper…
We study a model of dark matter in which the hidden sector interacts with standard model particles via a hidden photonic portal. We investigate the effects of this new interaction on the hydrogen atom, including the Stark, Zeeman and…
Radiative corrections to $B \to D \ell \nu_{\ell}$ decays may have an impact on predictions and measurements of the lepton flavour universality observables $\mathcal{R}(D^+)$ and $\mathcal{R}(D^0)$. In this paper, a comparison between…
The dark photon is a new hypothetical gauge boson arising in extensions of the Standard Model, and constitutes a compelling dark matter candidate. As dark photon dark matter (DPDM), it can interact with electromagnetic fields via kinetic…
The NA62 experiment at CERN, designed to study the ultra-rare decay $K^+ \to \pi^+\nu\overline{\nu}$, has also collected data in beam-dump mode. In this configuration, dark photons may be produced by protons dumped on an absorber and reach…
In this work, we consider the burst signal of the dark photon, the hypothetical vector boson of the $U(1)_B$ or $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge group, generated by a compact binary star system. The absence of the signal in the laser interferometer puts…
Radiative corrections to $B \to D \ell \nu_{\ell}$ decays can have an impact on predictions and measurements of the lepton universality ratios $\mathcal{R}(D^+)$ and $\mathcal{R}(D^0)$. These proceedings summarise a study on the comparison…
The effects of the electroweak symmetry breaking sector in rare $B$ and $K$ decays are considered in the presence of new strong dynamics at a large energy scale. In the context of the low energy effective lagrangian of the symmetry breaking…
Searches for dark photons provide serendipitous discovery potential for other types of vector particles. We develop a framework for recasting dark photon searches to obtain constraints on more general theories, which includes a data-driven…
Dark photons may kinetically mix with our photon and modify Maxwell's equations. We examine their impact on the Lorentz force acting on the plasma in astrophysical magnetospheres. Solving the relevant magnetohydrodynamic equations, we show…
The photon polarization in $D_{(s)} \to K_1 (\to K\pi\pi) \gamma$ decays can be extracted from an up-down asymmetry in the $K \pi \pi$ system, along the lines of the method known to $B \to K_1 (\to K\pi\pi) \gamma$ decays. Charm physics is…
The coupled dark energy model provides a possible approach to mitigate the coincidence problem of cosmological standard model. Here, the coupling term is assumed as $\bar{Q}=3H\xi_x\bar{\rho}_x$, which is related to the interaction rate and…
We describe current and future hadron collider limits on new vector-like leptons with exotic decays. We consider the possibility that, besides standard decays, the new leptons can also decay into a Standard Model charged lepton and a stable…
Dark photons are predicted by various new physics models, and are being intensively studied in a variety of experiments. In the first part of this paper, we obtain partial wave unitarity constraints on the dark photon parameter space from…
We review the present status of rare B decays, focusing on inclusive decay modes and their role in our search for new physics. We also briefly discuss direct CP violation in rare B decays and the rare kaon decays $K^+\to \pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$…
We report on our reexamination of the radiative corrections to $\pi_{l2}$ and $K_{l2}$ decays. We perform a matching calculation, using a specific model with vector meson dominance in the long distance part and the parton model in the short…
We discuss weak kaon decays in a scenario in which the Standard Model is extended by massive sterile fermions. After revisiting the analytical expressions for leptonic and semileptonic decays we derive the expressions for decay rates with…
