A sensitivity study of the search for heavy sterile neutrinos ($\nu_H$) in the MeV mass range using solar neutrino experiments is presented. $\nu_H$, with masses ranging from a few MeV up to around 15 MeV, can be produced in the Sun through…
Accelerator-based experiments reliant on charged pion and kaon decays to produce muon-neutrino beams also deliver an associated powerful flux of muons. Therefore, these experiments can additionally be sensitive to light new particles that…
The Mu2e experiment will search for the charged-lepton flavor violating (CLFV) neutrino-less conversion of a negative muon into an electron in the field of a nucleus. The conversion process results in a monochromatic electron with an energy…
We present strategies for the Mu3e experiment to search for light, weakly coupled particles produced in rare muon decays, focusing on displaced $e^+e^-$ decays within the hollow target. In most scenarios the backgrounds can be fully…
The search for charged-lepton flavor violation in muon capture on nuclei is a powerful probe of heavy new physics. A smoking gun signal for $\mu \rightarrow e$ conversion is a monochromatic electron with energy almost equal to the muon…
We report the first observation of the semi-muonic decay $D^+\to \omega \mu^+\nu_\mu$ using an $e^+e^-$ collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $2.93~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ collected with the BESIII detector at a…
The most general phenomenological model involving a lepton triplet with hypercharge $\pm 1$ is constructed. A distinctive feature of this model is the prediction of a doubly charged lepton, and a new heavy Dirac neutrino. We study the…
Rare decay of the Higgs boson is a powerful tool to probe new physics beyond the standard model. The rare decays occur through quantum loops in which the standard model and new physics contributions might cancel each other out. We consider…
At muon colliders, muon decays naturally produce intense electrons and positrons with unique features, namely high energies, high repetition rates, and small intrinsic uncertainties, that are unavailable at existing accelerator facilities.…
The Mu3e experiment searches for the lepton flavour violating decay mu+ -> e+e-e+, aiming for a branching fraction sensitivity of 10^-16. This requires an excellent momentum resolution for low energy electrons, high rate capability and a…
In short-baseline experiments such as LSND and MiniBooNE, an excess of electron neutrinos has been observed, originating from a muon neutrino beam. To address this anomaly, in the line of many works, we investigate various neutrino mixing…
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…
Exclusive rare Higgs decays into lepton pair plus one light hadron, such as $h\to \rho^0(\omega)\ell\bar{\ell}$, $h\to \pi^0\ell\bar{\ell}$, $h\to \pi^+ (K^+)\ell^-\bar{\nu}_\ell$, and $h\to \rho^+(K^{*+})\ell^-\bar{\nu}_\ell$, have been…
A search for the D0 to \pi+ \pi- \mu+ \mu- decay, where the muon pair does not originate from a resonance, is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb-1 recorded by the LHCb experiment…
Studies of rare decays play an important role in the search of physics beyond the standard model. New particles may participate in the loop processes and can be probed by seeing any deviations from the standard model predictions. The very…
The very rare Bd0 --> mu+ mu- decay may be the last chance for New Physics in flavor sector at the LHC, before the 13 TeV run in 2015. Partially motivated by the known tension in sin(2beta/phi_1), enhancement beyond (3-4) x 10^-10 would…
Motivated by the LHCb measurement of the hyperon decay mode $\Sigma^+\to p\mu^+\mu^-$ and prospects for improvement, we revisit the estimates for the rate and muon forward-backward asymmetry within the standard model and beyond. The…
A search for pair-produced charged Higgs bosons is performed with the L3 detector at LEP using data collected at centre-of-mass energies between 192 and 202 GeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 233.2 pb^-1. Decays into a charm…
Rare meson decay experiments promise to measure branching ratios as small as $10^{-13}$. This presents an opportunity to discover the $\mu^+\mu^-$ bound state true muonium. We consider a set of possible channels, all with branching ratios…
In this work we present a model-independent search strategy at the LHC for heavy Higgs bosons decaying into a tau and a muon, $H/A \rightarrow \tau\mu$, showing a plausible tendency to improve the sensitivity obtained by the present…
