In the simplest little Higgs model the new flavor-changing interactions between heavy neutrinos and the Standard Model leptons can generate contributions to some lepton flavor violating decays of Z-boson at one-loop level, such as Z→τ±μ∓, Z→τ±e∓ and Z→μ±e∓. We examine the decay modes and find that the branching ratios can reach 10-7 for the three decays, which should be accessible at the GigaZ option of the ILC.

Abstract In this paper we consider the decay D+ → π+ℓ+ℓ−, addressing in particular the resonance contributions as well as the relatively large contributions from the weak annihilation diagrams. For the weak annihilation diagrams we include known results from QCD factorisation at low q2 and at high q2, adapting the existing calculation for B decays in the Operator Product Expansion. The hadronic resonance contributions are obtained through a dispersion relation, modelling the spectral functions as towers of Regge-like resonances in each channel, as suggested by Shifman, imposing the partonic behaviour in the deep Euclidean. The parameters of the model are extracted using e+e− → (hadrons) and τ → (hadrons) + ντ data as well as the branching ratios for the resonant decays D+ → π+R(R → ℓ+ℓ−), with R = ρ, ω, and ϕ. We perform a thorough error analysis, and present our results for the Standard Model differential branching ratio as a function of q2. Focusing then on the observables FH and AFB, we consider the sensitivity of this channel to effects of physics beyond the Standard Model, both in a model independent way and for the case of leptoquarks.

We present the phenomenology of the low scale U(1)B–L extension of the standard model and its implications at LHC. We show that this model provides a natural explanation for the presence of three right-handed neutrinos and can naturally account the observed neutrino masses and mixing. We study the decay and production of the extra gauge boson and the SM singlet scalar (heavy Higgs) predicted in this type of models. We find that the cross sections of the SM-like Higgs production are reduced by ~ 20% – 30%, while its decay branching ratios remain intact. The extra Higgs has relatively small cross sections and the branching ratios of Z′ → l+l− are of order ~ 20% compared to ~ 3% of the SM results.

The Tevatron is expected to be most sensitive to the Standard Model Higgs in its associated production with a W or Z boson. The Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) has performed individual searches for such production in each decay channel of the vector boson, assuming that the Higgs decays to [Formula: see text]. These searches use data collected by CDF during the 1992-95 run. The individual results are reviewed, and a combined cross section limit is presented.

Abstract Data in B-meson decays indicate violations of lepton flavour universality, thereby raising the question about such phenomena in the charm sector. We perform a model-independent analysis of NP contributions in (semi)-leptonic decays of $$D_{(s)}$$D(s) mesons which originate from $$c \rightarrow d \bar{{\ell }} \nu _l$$c→dℓ¯νl and $$c \rightarrow s \bar{{\ell }} \nu _{\ell }$$c→sℓ¯νℓ charged-current interactions. Starting from the most general low-energy effective Hamiltonian containing four-fermion operators and the corresponding short-distance coefficients, we explore the impact of new (pseudo)-scalar, vector and tensor operators and constrain their effects through the interplay with current data. We pay special attention to the elements $$|V_{cd}|$$|Vcd| and $$|V_{cs}|$$|Vcs| of the Cabibbo–Kobayashi–Maskawa matrix and extract them from the $$D_{(s)}$$D(s) decays in the presence of possible NP decay contributions, comparing them with determinations utilizing unitarity. We find a picture in agreement with the Standard Model within the current uncertainties. Using the results from our analysis, we make also predictions for leptonic $$D_{(s)}^+ \rightarrow e^+ \nu _e$$D(s)+→e+νe modes which could be hugely enhanced with respect to their tiny Standard Model branching ratios. It will be interesting to apply our strategy at the future high-precision frontier.

While the LHC has not directly observed any new particle so far, experimental results from LHCb, BELLE and BABAR point towards the violation of lepton flavour universality in b ⟶ sℓ+ and b ⟶ c-ℓν. In this context, also the discrepancy in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon can be interpreted as a sign of lepton flavour universality violation. Here we discuss how these hints for new physics can also be explained by introducing leptoquarks as an extension of the Standard Model. Indeed, leptoquarks are good candidates to explain the anomaly in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon because of an mg/mμ enhanced contribution giving correlated effects in Z boson decays which is particularly interesting in the light of future precision experiments.

The decay [Formula: see text] is investigated beyond the standard model. Interestingly, the upper limit of the CP-conserving and CP-violating branching ratios of the decay, induced from the possible extensions of the standard model, would be larger than the corresponding branching ratios given in the standard model respectively, and it is expected that the CP-violating part could be enhanced.

A model for electroweak unification of quarks and leptons, in a gauge group SUC(3) × SU(4) × UX(1) is constructed. The model requires, three generations of quarks and leptons which are replicas (mirror) of the standard quarks and leptons. The gauge group SU(4) × UX(1) is broken in such a way so as to reproduce standard model and to generate heavy masses for the vector bosons [Formula: see text], the leptoquarks and mirror fermions. It is shown lower limit on mass scale of mirror fermions is [Formula: see text], E- being the lightest mirror fermion coupled to Z boson. As the universe expands, the heavy matter is decoupled at an early stage of expansion and may be a source of dark matter. Leptoquarks in the model connect the standard model and mirror fermions. Baryon genesis in our universe implies antibaryon genesis in mirror universe.

We study the radiative leptonic D meson decays of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and D0→ l+l-γ (l=e, μ) within the light front quark model. In the standard model, we find that the decay branching ratios of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are 6.9×10-6 (7.7×10-5), 2.5×10-5 (2.6×10-4), and 6.0×10-6 (3.2×10-4), and that of D0→l+l-γ (l=e, μ) and [Formula: see text] are 6.3×10-11 and 2.7×10-16, respectively.
