In the recent years, several measurements of $B$-decays with flavor changing neutral currents, i.e. $b\to s$ transitions hint at deviations from the Standard Model (SM) predictions. These decays are forbidden at tree-level in the SM and can only proceed via suppressed loop level or box diagrams. Rare decays of $B$ mesons are an ideal probe to search for phenomena beyond the SM, since...

Fermilab has just announced a new experimental result for muon g-2. The statistical uncertainty of the new result is similar to the previous BNL result and the central value is consistent. The combined value is now 4.2 standard deviation away from the Standard Model prediction. For the Standard Model prediction, the two hadronic contributions, HVP (hadronic vacuum polarization) and HLbL...

Hadronic vacuum polarization is a key ingredient of the SM prediction for g-2. However, it also enters the global EW fit, linking both of them. In this talk I discuss this interplay as well as the possible presence of NP in the EW fit and g-2.

We discuss a systematic classification of the models with the minimal field content to account for, at the same time, the g-2 anomaly, the ones emerging in decays of B-mesons and, finally, a viable thermal Dark Matter. We will illustrate, in some specific examples, the strong complementarity among flavor and Dark Matter observables.

Scenarios in which right-handed light Standard Model fermions couple to a new gauge group, $U(1)_{T3R}$ can naturally generate a sub-GeV dark matter candidate. But such models necessarily have large couplings to the Standard Model, generally yielding tight experimental constraints.

New light singlet scalars with flavor-specific couplings represent a phenomenologically distinctive and flavor-safe alternative to the well-studied possibility of Higgs-portal scalars. However, in contrast to the Higgs portal, flavor-specific couplings require an ultraviolet completion involving new heavy states charged under the Standard Model gauge symmetries, leading to a host of additional...

The confirmation of the discrepancy between the Muon g-2 experiment at Fermilab and the Standard Model prediction points to New Physics not far above the TeV scale. Flavour symmetries broken at low energies can account for it, although relevant constraints then arise from flavour-violating observables. Here I discuss the profound implications of this result over the structure of the...

The Minimal R-symmetric Supersymmetric Standard Model possesses interesting features, which makes it an attractive alternative to the MSSM. Some of them can be observed in and are reflected by the lepton flavour violation processes. Notably, there is no $\tan\beta$-enhancement for $g-2$ of the muon and other dipole operators, resulting in very different predictions for lepton observables...

We explore the implications of g-2 new result to five models based on the SU(3)C×SU(3)L×U(1)N gauge symmetry and put our conclusions into perspective with LHC bounds. We show that previous conclusions found in the context of such models change if there are more than one heavy particle running in the loop. Moreover, having in mind the projected precision aimed by the g-2 experiment at FERMILAB,...

A study of a sample of 4 109 tagged π0 mesons from K+→π+π0(γ) is performed at the NA62 experiment at CERN, searching for the decay of the π0 to invisible particles. No signal is observed in excess of the expected background fluctuations. An upper limit of 4.4 10−9 is set on the branching ratio at 90% C.L. improving on previous results by a factor of 60.

Rare $\vert \Delta c \vert=\vert \Delta u \vert=1$ processes constitute unique flavor probes in the up-sector of the Standard Model. Semileptonic FCNC decays of charmed baryons, such as $\Lambda_c\to p \mu^+\mu^-$, offer a large set of clean null test observables such as CP-asymmetries, lepton-universality ratios, missing energy modes, lepton flavor violating modes and angular observables.

The lepton universality violating flavor ratios $R_K/R_{K^*}$ indicate new physics either in $b \to s \mu^+ \mu^-$ or in $b \to s e^+ e^-$ or in both. If the new physics is only $b \to s e^+ e^-$ transition, the corresponding new physics operators, in principle, can have any Lorentz structure. In this work, we perform a model independent analysis of new physics only in $b \to se^+e^-$ decay...

Lack of new states at the TeV scale challenges all kinds of solutions to the hierarchy problem but the current B anomalies might be a new guidance. One possible solution to the neutral current B anomalies is a TeV-scale $Z’$ boson of the broken $U(1)_F$ gauged flavor symmetry, which might implies the connection between the two problems. In this talk, I will realize this idea based on a...

Though the Belle experiment has stopped data taking more than a decade ago, new results on $B$ meson decays are still being obtained. This is in part due to new experimental tools elaborated for Belle II applied to the Belle data set, such as the FEI (Full Event Interpretation) hadronic and semileptonic tag which enables new measurements of $B \to D^{*}\ell\nu$, $B \to D^{\ast\ast}\ell\nu$ and...

Scalar Leptoquark models can explain the current anomalies in B physics. However, one of the main constraints on these models comes from Bs-mixing.
We analyse the QCD corrections to the Bs-mixing process within a scalar leptoquark model, going at 2-loop level. In order to examine the effect of this process we use a low energy EFT, and compute the Wilson coefficients at NLO.

We examine a common origin of four-dimensional flavor, CP, and $U(1)_R$ symmetries in the context of heterotic string theory with standard embedding. We find that flavor and $U(1)_R$ symmetries are unified into the $Sp(2h+2, \mathbb{C})$ modular symmetries of Calabi-Yau threefolds with $h$ being the number of moduli fields. Together with the $\mathbb{Z}_2^{\rm CP}$ CP symmetry, they are...

Scenarios assuming an exact CP symmetry in the UV do not suffer quality problems, and are thus interesting alternatives to PQ-based solutions to the Strong CP problem. However, to correctly reproduce the Standard Model quark masses and CP violation these models must feature a non-trivial coincidence between a priori unrelated CP-even and CP-odd mass scales. In this talk we elucidate the origin...
