Under certain circumstances, a three-body decay width can be approximated by an integral involving a product of two off-shell two-body decay widths. This ``angle-average'' approximation is used to calculate the $\pi NN$ decay width of the…

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-$\beta$…

In a recent work [New chiral structures for baryon number violating nucleon decays, arXiv:2504.14855], we identified generic baryon-number-violating (BNV) structures containing triple light quarks and achieved their leading-order chiral…

In the Standard Model, baryon number is an accidental symmetry, whose violation would constitute unambiguous evidence of new physics, with proton decay providing its most prominent experimental signature. At the same time, the peculiar…

Baryon number violation appears in many contexts. It is a requirement for baryogenesis and is a consequence of Grand Unified Theories (GUTs), which predict nucleon decay. Nucleon decay searches provide the most direct way to test baryon…

Processes that violate baryon number, most notably proton decay and $n\bar n$ transitions, are promising probes of physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM) needed to understand the lack of antimatter in the Universe. To interpret current and…

Recently, the first example of two-neutron decay from the ground state of an unbound nucleus, $^{16}$Be, was seen. Three-body methods are ideal for exactly treating the degrees of freedom important for these decays. Using a basis expansion…

In Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT), invisible neutron decay arises from d = 12 operators. Adding new light particles to the field content of the SM, such as right-handed neutrinos, allows one to construct operators for…

We elaborate on the dichotomy between the description of the semileptonic decays of heavy hadrons on the one hand and the semileptonic decays of light hadrons such as neutron $\beta$ decays on the other hand. For example, almost without…

Using 0.37 megaton$\cdot$years of exposure from the Super-Kamiokande detector, we search for 10 dinucleon and nucleon decay modes that have a two-body final state with no hadrons. These baryon and lepton number violating modes have the…

We consider the diphoton excess observed by ATLAS and CMS using the most up-to-date data and estimate the preferred enhancement in the production rate between 8 TeV and 13 TeV. Within the framework of effective field theory (EFT), we then…

In addition to the common 3-body decay of the neutron $n\rightarrow p e^-\overline{\nu_e}$ there should exist an effective 2-body subset with the electron and proton forming a Hydrogen bound state with well defined total momentum, total…

In this report we discuss the main theories to understand the origin of baryon and lepton number violation in physics beyond the Standard Model. We present the theoretical predictions for rare processes such as neutrinoless double beta…

We present the three-body decay of the Higgs boson into two leptons and a photon to dimension-eight in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT). In order to obtain this result we interfere the full one-loop Standard Model result…

We study the viability of electroweak baryogenesis in a two Higgs doublet model scenario augmented by vector-like, electroweakly interacting fermions. Considering a limited, but illustrative region of the model parameter space, we obtain…

Baryon number is conserved in the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. Baryon Number Violation (BNV) is one of the criteria to explain the matter anti-matter asymmetry of the universe. Various beyond the SM (BSM) scenarios motivate BNV.…

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…

Proton decay, and the decay of nucleons in general, constitutes one of the most sensitive probes of high-scale physics beyond the Standard Model. Most of the existing nucleon decay searches have focused primarily on two-body decay channels,…

In this paper we explore the time-reversal-odd triple-correlation coefficient in neutron beta decay, the so-called "D coefficient", using heavy-baryon effective field theory with photon degrees of freedom. We find that this framework allows…

We calculate the lifetime of the deuteron with dimension-nine quark operators that violate baryon number by two units. We construct an effective field theory for $|\Delta B|=2$ interactions that give rise to neutron-antineutron…
