A multi-charged particle model with local $U(1)_{\mu - \tau}$ to explain muon $g-2$, flavor physics, and possible collider signature

We consider a model with multi-charged particles including vector-like fermions and a charged scalar under a local $U(1)_{\mu - \tau}$ symmetry. We search for allowed parameter region explaining muon anomalous magnetic moment (muon $g-2$) and $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ anomalies, satisfying constraints from the lepton flavor violations, $Z$ boson decays, meson anti-meson mixing and collider experiments. Carrying out numerical analysis, we explore the typical size of the muon $g-2$ and Wilson coefficients to explain $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ anomalies in our model when all other experimental constraints are satisfied. We then discuss the collider physics of the multicharged vectorlike fermions, considering some benchmark points in the allowed parameter space.

TOP WINDOW FOR DARK MATTER

We consider a scenario in which a dark matter can couple only to the top quark. The analysis is conducted by using the effective Lagrangian approach. In the light of the latest data on dark matter, we obtain a maximally allowed magnitude of the coupling between the dark matter and the top quark. The collider signature at the Large Hadron Collider is also discussed.
