The Standard Model

In extended gauge models with gauge group G, electric charge quantization is not always an automatic consequence of the consistency of the theory. Exotic fermions which have SU (3) ⊗ SU (2) L ⊗ U (1) invariant mass terms can provide a simple method for preserving the charge quantization feature of the standard model. This procedure is applied to the segregated isospin model.This approach indicates that precision measurements of the τ-lepton life-time and rare flavor-changing neutral processes may provide the first indications of new physics beyond the standard model.

The One

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.

Flavor Changing Neutral Currents

We study the effect of both Z and Z′ mediated flavor-changing neutral currents (FCNCs) on the Λb→Λℓ+ℓ-(ℓ = μ, τ) rare decay. We find the branching ratio is reasonably enhanced from its Standard Model value due to the effect of both Z and Z′ mediated FCNCs, and gives the possibility of new physics beyond the Standard Model. The contribution of Z′ boson depends upon the precise value of MZ′.

Cp Asymmetries

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.

[Formula: see text] mixing offers a profound probe into the effects of new physics beyond the Standard Model. In this paper, [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] mass differences are considered taking the effect of both Z- and Z′-mediated flavor-changing neutral currents in the [Formula: see text] mixing (q = d, s). Our estimated mass of Z′ boson is accessible at the experiments LHC and B-factories in near future.

The muon is an elementary particle. It has the same electric charge and spin as the electron, but it is about two hundred times heavier. It was unexpected when observed in cosmic ray experiments in 1936. “Who ordered that?” Isidor Rabi asked. Results concerning the muon continue to surprise physicists and may even point to strong evidence for physics lying beyond the Standard Model.

Motivated by the hints of lepton flavor violating (LFV) decays, we study Bd,s → μτ, Bs,d → τe, and τ– → e– + e+ + e– decays in [Formula: see text] model. These LFV decays present interesting patterns that may reveal the shape of new physics beyond the standard model. Considering the effect of both Z- and [Formula: see text]-mediated flavor-changing neutral current we calculate the branching ratios for these decays. We find the branching ratios [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text].

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 a quasi-model-independent search for physics beyond the standard model. We define final states to be studied, and construct a rule that identifies a set of variables appropriate for any particular final state. A new algorithm ("Sleuth") searches for regions of excess in the space of those variables and quantifies the significance of any detected excess. After demonstrating the sensititvity of the method, we apply it to the semi-inclusive channel eμX collected in ≈108 pb -1 of [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text] at the DØ experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. We find no evidence of new high pT physics in this sample.
