Lepton Flavour

Lepton flavour violation (LFV) is a striking signature of potential beyond the Standard Model physics. The search for LFV with the ATLAS detector is reported in searches focusing on the decay of the Higgs boson, the Z boson and of a heavy neutral gauge boson, Z’, using pp collisions data with a center of mass energy of 8 TeV and 13 TeV.

Jet Observables

Jet observables have been exploited extensively during the LHC Run 1 to search for physics beyond the Standard Model. In this article, the most recent results from the ATLAS and CMS collaborations are summarized. Data from proton–proton collisions at 7 and 8 TeV center-of-mass energy have been analyzed to study monojet, dijet, and multijet final states, searching for a variety of new physics signals that include colored resonances, contact interactions, extra dimensions, and supersymmetric particles. The exhaustive searches with jets in Run 1 did not reveal any signal, and the results were used to put stringent exclusion limits on the new physics models.

Lepton Flavour

Lepton flavour violation in the charged lepton sector is an unambiguous signal of physics beyond the Standard Model. Searches for lepton flavour violation in decays of the ZZ boson with the ATLAS detector is reported, focusing on decays into an electron or muon and a hadronically decaying \tauτ-lepton, using pppp collisions data with a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. Upper limits on the branching ratios of lepton-flavor-violating decays are set at the 95% confidence level: \mathcal{B}(Z\to e\tau) < 5.8\times10^{-5}ℬ(Z→eτ)<5.8×10−5 and \mathcal{B}(Z\to \mu\tau) < 2.4\times10^{-5}ℬ(Z→μτ)<2.4×10−5. When combined with a previous ATLAS result based on pppp collisions data with a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, an upper limit of \mathcal{B}(Z\to \mu\tau) < 1.3\times10^{-5}ℬ(Z→μτ)<1.3×10−5 is obtained.

Lepton Flavour

In the Standard Model the electroweak coupling of the gauge bosons to leptons is independent of the lepton flavour. Semileptonic and rare decays of b quarks provide an ideal laboratory to test this property. Any violation of Lepton Flavour Universality would be a clear sign of physics beyond the Standard Model. In this work a review of the Lepton Flavour Universality tests performed using data collected by the LHCb experiment in 2011 and 2012 at a centre of mass energy of 7 and 8 TeV is presented.

Lepton Flavour

Lepton flavour is a conserved quantity in the standard model of particle physics, but it does not follow from an underlying gauge symmetry. After the discovery of neutrino oscillation, it has been established that lepton flavour is not conserved in the neutral sector. Thus the lepton sector is an excellent place to look for New Physics, and in this perspective the Charged Lepton Flavour Violation is interesting. Various extensions of the standard model predict lepton flavour violating decays that can be observed at LHC. This report summarises several searches for lepton flavour violation with data collected by the CMS detector.

The success of the first three years of operations of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at center-of-mass energies of 7 TeV and 8 TeV radically changed the landscape of searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM) and our very way of thinking about its possible origin and its hiding place. Among the paradigms of new physics that have been probed quite extensively at the LHC, are various models that predict the existence of extra spatial dimensions. In this review, the current status of searches for extra dimensions with the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector is presented, along with prospects for future searches at the full energy of the LHC, expected to be reached in the next few years.

Tests of lepton flavour universality in B decays offer an excellent opportunity to test the Standard Model, and show hints of new physics in analyses performed by the LHCb, Belle and BaBar experiments. Several theoretical models proposed to explain possible violation of lepton flavour universality claim a connection with lepton flavour violation in B decays. These proceedings review the experimental status of the tests of lepton flavour universality and the searches of lepton flavour violation in B decays.

Lepton Flavour

Lepton Flavour Violation in the charged lepton sector (CLFV) is forbidden in the Standard Model. Therefore, the observation of CLFV process would be clear evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model. The COMET (COherent Muon to Electron Transitions) experiment will measure one of these processes: µN → eN at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex in Tokai, Japan. The COMET experiment will be carried out using a two-staged approach. Phase-I of the experiment is aiming at a signal sensitivity of 3.1 × 10−15. Phase-II will use much more intense beam and a more complex transport system to achieve a single-event sensitivity of 3 × 10−17. The article gives an overview of construction and status of the COMET experiment.
