Abstract We report theoretical results of the electric dipole moment (EDM) of 210Fr which arises from the interaction of the EDM of an electron with the internal electric field in an atom and the scalar-pseudoscalar electron-nucleus interaction; the two dominant sources of CP violation in this atom. Employing the relativistic coupled-cluster theory, we evaluate the enhancement factors for these two CP violating interactions to an accuracy of about 3% and analyze the contributions of the many-body effects. These two quantities in combination with the projected sensitivity of the 210Fr EDM experiment provide constraints on new physics beyond the Standard Model. Particularly, we demonstrate that their precise values are necessary to account for the effect of the bottom quark in models in which the Higgs sector is augmented by nonstandard Yukawa interactions such as the two-Higgs doublet model.

Although absent at the tree level in models with only doublet and singlet Higgs representations, the WZH coupling can be induced at the one-loop level. We examine the size of this induced coupling in the two Higgs doublet model due to fermion as well as Higgs/gauge boson loops. Such couplings could provide a new mechanism for charged Higgs production at colliders and are ‘backgrounds’ to new physics beyond the Standard Model. We find, however, that these couplings are very weak for all regions of the parameter space explored.

We examine in detail the semileptonic decay [Formula: see text], which may confirm previous hints, from the analogous [Formula: see text] decay, of a new physics beyond the Standard Model. First of all, starting from rather general assumptions, we predict the partial width of the decay. Then we analyze the effects of five possible new physics interactions, adopting in each case five different form factors. In particular, for each term beyond the Standard Model, we find some constraints on the strength and phase of the coupling, which we combine with those found by other authors in analyzing the analogous semileptonic decays of [Formula: see text]. Our analysis involves some dimensionless quantities, substantially independent of the form factor, but which, owing to the constraints, turn out to be strongly sensitive to the kind of nonstandard interaction. We also introduce a criterion thanks to which one can discriminate among the various new physics terms: the left-handed current and the two-Higgs-doublet model appear privileged, with a neat preference for the former interaction. Finally, we suggest a differential observable that could, in principle, help to distinguish between the two cases.

Rare decays of the B meson are sensitive to new physics effects. Several experimental results on these decays have been difficult to understand within the Standard Model (SM) though more precise measurements and a better understanding of SM theory predictions are needed before any firm conclusions can be drawn. In this note we try to understand the present data assuming the presence of new physics. We find that the data points to new physics of an extended Higgs sector and we present a two-Higgs-doublet model with a 2–3 flavor symmetry in the down-type quark sector that can explain the deviations from the Standard Model reported in several rare B decays.

While the existence of a Higgs boson with a mass near 125 GeV has been clearly established, the detailed structure of the entire Higgs sector is yet unclear. Besides the Standard Model interpretation, various possibilities for extended Higgs sectors are being considered. The minimal supersymmetric extension (MSSM) features two Higgs doublets resulting in five physical Higgs bosons, which are subject to direct searches. Alternatively, more generic Two-Higgs Doublet models (2HDM) are used for the interpretation of results. The Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Model (NMSSM) has a more complex Higgs sector with seven physical states. Also exotic Higgs bosons decaying to invisible final states are considered. This article summarizes recent findings based on results from collider experiments.

The measurement of sin 2β is discussed within and beyond the standard model. In the presence of new physics, the angle β extracted from the global fit (denoted by [Formula: see text]) and the one extracted from B→J/ψKS(denoted by βJ/ψ) are in general all different from the "true" angle β which is the weak phase of CKM matrix element [Formula: see text]. Possible new physics effects on the ratio [Formula: see text] is studied and parametrized in a most general form. It is shown that the ratio Rβmay provide a useful tool in probing new physics. The experimental value of Rβis obtained through an update of the global fit of the unitarity triangle with the latest data and found to be less than unity at 1σ level. The new physics effects on Rβfrom the models with minimum flavor violation (MFV) and the standard model with two-Higgs-doublet (S2HDM) are studied in detail. It is found that the MFV models seem to give a relative large value Rβ≥1. With the current data, this may indicate that this kind of new physics may be disfavored and alternative new physics with additional phases appears more relevant. As an illustration for models with additional phase beyond CKM phase, the S2HDM effects on Rβare studied and found to be easily coincide with the data due to the flavor changing neutral Higgs interaction.

Of the many ingredients of the Standard Model that are relevant to the analysis of CP asymmetries in B0 decays, some are likely to hold even beyond the Standard Model while others are sensitive to new physics. Consequently, certain predictions are maintained while others may show dramatic deviations from the Standard Model. Many classes of models may show clear signatures when the asymmetries are measured: four quark generations, Z-mediated flavor-changing neutral currents, supersymmetry and “real superweak” models. On the other hand, models of left-right symmetry and multi-Higgs sectors with natural flavor conservation are unlikely to modify the Standard Model predictions.

Abstract In this paper we investigate CP violation in charged decays of D meson. Particularly, we study the direct CP asymmetry of the Cabibbo favored non-leptonic $$D^+ \rightarrow {\bar{K}}^0 \pi ^+$$D+→K¯0π+ and the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay mode $$D^+ \rightarrow K^0 \pi ^+$$D+→K0π+ within standard model, two Higgs doublet model with generic Yukawa structure and left right symmetric models. In the standard model, we first derive the contributions from box and di-penguin diagrams contributing to their amplitudes which are relevant to the generation of the weak phases essential for non-vanishing direct CP violation. Then, we show that the generated phases are so tiny leading to null direct CP asymmetries of both decay modes. Regarding the two Higgs doublet model with generic Yukawa structure, after taking into account all constraints on the parameter space of the model, we show that the weak phases of the amplitudes can be enhanced compared to the standard model ones. However, the enhancement is still not enough to have sizable direct CP asymmetries. Finally, within left right symmetric models, we find that $$|A^{SM+LR}_{CP} (D^+ \rightarrow {\bar{K}}^0 \pi ^+)|\lesssim \mathcal {O}(10^{-3})$$|ACPSM+LR(D+→K¯0π+)|≲O(10-3) after respecting all relevant constraints on the parameter space of the model.

Abstract The Fermilab Muon g −2 experiment recently reported its first measurement of the anomalous magnetic moment $$ {a}_{\mu}^{\mathrm{FNAL}} $$ a μ FNAL , which is in full agreement with the previous BNL measurement and pushes the world average deviation $$ \Delta {a}_{\mu}^{2021} $$ ∆ a μ 2021 from the Standard Model to a significance of 4.2σ. Here we provide an extensive survey of its impact on beyond the Standard Model physics. We use state-of-the-art calculations and a sophisticated set of tools to make predictions for aμ, dark matter and LHC searches in a wide range of simple models with up to three new fields, that represent some of the few ways that large ∆aμ can be explained. In addition for the particularly well motivated Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, we exhaustively cover the scenarios where large ∆aμ can be explained while simultaneously satisfying all relevant data from other experiments. Generally, the aμ result can only be explained by rather small masses and/or large couplings and enhanced chirality flips, which can lead to conflicts with limits from LHC and dark matter experiments. Our results show that the new measurement excludes a large number of models and provides crucial constraints on others. Two-Higgs doublet and leptoquark models provide viable explanations of aμ only in specific versions and in specific parameter ranges. Among all models with up to three fields, only models with chirality enhancements can accommodate aμ and dark matter simultaneously. The MSSM can simultaneously explain aμ and dark matter for Bino-like LSP in several coannihilation regions. Allowing under abundance of the dark matter relic density, the Higgsino- and particularly Wino-like LSP scenarios become promising explanations of the aμ result.
