Discovery of Higgs boson confirms once again the stupendous success of
the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. Nevethless, there are many
experimental and theoretical issues which SM fails to address convincingly,
leading us to think about more bigger description of the SM, i.e. beyond the
standard model physics. Among several beyond standard models, the supersymmetry
is the most...
Nuclear isomers are beginning to play an ever important role in unravelling the nuclear structure changes at higher spins and excitations. The seniority isomers constitute a separate class of isomers which are not exactly spin isomers. Very recently, we have shown the emergence of a new class of seniority isomers for the first time, which decay by odd-multipole transitions. This finding has...
The mass and nature of neutrinos play an important role in theories beyond the standard model. It is now well established that neutrinos have a non-zero mass, but whether the neutrino and anti-neutrino are the same (Majorana particle) or distinct (Dirac particle) is still an open question. At present, neutrinoless double beta decay (NDBD or 0𝜈𝛽𝛽), is perhaps the only experiment which can...
