In recent years, the gauge group $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ has received a lot of attention since it can, in principle, account for the observed excess in the anomalous muon magnetic moment $(g-2)_\mu$, as well as the Hubble tension. Due to unavoidable, loop-induced kinetic mixing with the SM photon and $Z$, the $U(1)_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ gauge boson $A'$ can contribute to stellar cooling via decays...

It is known that the model based on U(1)$_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ gauge symmetry can explain not only the discrepancy between the measured value of muon $g-2$ and the theoretical prediction, but also the structure of the neutrino mass and mixings. We revisit the analysis of the mass matrix structure in the minimal U(1)$_{L_\mu-L_\tau}$ models based on the latest experimental result, where the minimal...

We revisit the gauged U(1)B−L explanation of the ATOMKI nuclear anomalies, in which the new gauge boson is the hypothetical X(17) particle. It is known that the vanilla B−L scenario is unable to account for appropriate couplings, namely the suppression of the couplings of X(17) to neutrinos, which motivates adding vector-like leptons. The simplest case, in which the new fields have B−L charges...

Although, a fourth chiral generation of fermions is excluded by experimental data, the possibility of extending the SM with vector-like quarks, where both chiral components transform the same way under SU(2)_L, has not been ruled out. In fact, these fields are present in a great variety of NP models, from GUTs to solutions to the strong CP problem.

We analyse the possibility of describing quark masses, mixing and CP violation in $S'_4$ modular flavour models without flavons. We focus on the case where the closeness of the modulus to the point of residual $\mathbb{Z}^{ST}_3$ symmetry (the cusp) plays a role in generating quark mass hierarchies and discuss the role modular form normalisations play in such constructions. We find that...

Modular symmetry provides us with a satisfactory and appealing framework for addressing the flavour problem. The only flavons present in such a framework are one or more moduli fields $\tau$. It seems that the fixed points $\tau = i$ and $\omega$ play a special role in both the phenomenological model building and the 10d supersymmetric orbifold examples. In this talk, I will investigate a...

The method of reduction of couplings consists in the search for relations between seemingly independent couplings that are renormalization group invariant. In this talk the existence of such 1-loop relations among the top Yukawa, the Higgs quartic and the gauge colour couplings of the Type-II Two Higgs Doublet Model at a high-energy boundary is demonstrated. The phenomenological viability of...
