Evidence of the $K^+\to\mu^+\nu\bar\nu\nu$ decay was searched for using E949 experimental data with an exposure of $1.70\times 10^{12}$ stopped kaons. The data sample is dominated by the backgrond process $K^+\to\mu^+\nu_\mu\gamma$. An…
The muon g-2 discrepancy between theory and experiment may be explained by a light vector boson Z_d that couples to the electromagnetic current via kinetic mixing with the photon. We illustrate how the existing electron g-2, pion Dalitz…
The rare decays $B^+\to K^+ \mu\bar \mu$ and $B^0\to K^{*0} \mu\bar\mu$ provide the strongest constraints on the mixing of a light scalar with the Higgs boson for GeV-scale masses. The constraints sensitively depend on the branching ratio…
We study the rare kaon decays in the framework of general SUSY models. Unlike the results in the literature, we find the contributions from the gluino exchange to the branching ratio of $K^+\to \pi^+ \nu \bar{\nu}$ can reach the central…
A search for the very rare $D^0 \to \mu^+\mu^-$ decay is performed using data collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 7$, 8 and $13~\rm{TeV}$, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of…
Current dark matter direct detection experiments have low sensitivity to sub-GeV dark matter. In this work, we demonstrate that rare $B$ and $K$ meson decays with missing energy in the final state can serve as efficient probes in this mass…
A search for the rare leptonic decay $B^{+} \rightarrow {\mu}^{+}{\mu}^{-}{\mu}^{+}{\nu}_{{\mu}}$ is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $4.7$ fb$^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment.…
The rare decays of a kaon into a pion and a charged lepton/antilepton pair proceed via a flavour changing neutral current and therefore may only be induced beyond tree level in the Standard Model. This natural suppression makes these decays…
Using the nonobservance of missing mass events in the leptonic kaon decay $K \to \mu X$, we place a strong constraint on exotic parity-violating gauge interactions of the right-handed muon. By way of illustration, we apply it to an…
Light extra U(1) gauge bosons, so called hidden photons, which reside in a hidden sector have attracted much attention since they are a well motivated feature of many scenarios beyond the Standard Model and furthermore could mediate the…
The rare kaon decays K_L -> pi^0 nu {bar nu}, K^+ -> pi^+ nu {bar nu}, K_L -> pi^0 e^+ e^- and K_L -> pi^0 mu^+ mu^- are theoretically very clean and, being strongly CKM suppressed, highly sensitive to New Physics (NP). Recent Flavour…
A model of hybrid meson structure based on the QCD Hamiltonian in Coulomb gauge and the use of a single constituent quasigluon is applied compute hadronic decays of mesons with exotic quantum numbers, $0^{+-}$ and $2^{+-}$. These correspond…
Kaon physics provides a unique opportunity to identify new flavour and CP violating interactions beyond the Standard Model (SM). In the SM, implied by the hierarchical structure of the CKM matrix and the GIM mechanism, flavour changing…
The $K \rightarrow \mu\mu$ decays have recently been identified as another golden kaon physics mode alongside the rare $K \rightarrow\pi\nu\bar{\nu}$ processes. These golden modes provide precision tests of the Standard Model with very high…
We compute the contribution of the decays $K_L \rightarrow \pi^0 Q \bar Q$ and $K^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ Q \bar Q$, where $Q$ is a dark fermion of the dark sector, to the measured widths for the rare decays $K^+\rightarrow \pi^+ \nu \bar \nu$…
Precision measurements of the branching ratios (BRs) for rare kaon decays can provide unique constraints on CKM unitarity and may reveal the existence of new physics. The BRs for two of these decays, $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar{\nu}$ and…
We present a detailed theoretical analysis of very rare, exclusive hadronic decays of the electroweak gauge bosons V=W, Z from first principles of QCD. Our main focus is on the radiative decays V->M+gamma, in which M is a pseudoscalar or…
We show that long distance contributions to the rare decays K -> pi nu nu-bar and K -> pi l+ l- can be computed using lattice QCD. The proposed approach requires well established methods, successfully applied in the calculations of…
Weak decays of charged kaons with an additional lepton-antilepton pair, $K^- \to \ell^- \bar{\nu}_\ell \ell'^{+} \ell'^{-}$ ($K_{\ell2\ell'}$), are suppressed at order $O(G_{F}^{2}\alpha_{\rm em}^{2})$ in the Standard Model (SM) and provide…
Hidden sectors with light extra U(1) gauge bosons, so-called hidden photons, have recently attracted some attention because they are a common feature of physics beyond the Standard Model like string theory and supersymmetry and additionally…
