Leptonic violation

GC Branco, R Gonzalez Felipe, FR Joaquim - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2012 - APS
Several topics on CP violation in the lepton sector are reviewed. A few theoretical aspects
concerning neutrino masses, leptonic mixing, and CP violation will be covered, with special …

Flavour-violating charged lepton decays in seesaw-type models

A Ilakovac, A Pilaftsis - Nuclear Physics B, 1995 - Elsevier
Analytic expressions of lepton-flavour-and lepton-number-violating decays of charged
leptons are derived in the context of general SU (2) L⊗ U (1) Y seesaw scenarios that are …

KL→ π0νν beyond the standard model

Y Grossman, Y Nir - Physics Letters B, 1997 - Elsevier
We analyze the decay KL→ π 0ν ν in a model independent way. If lepton flavor is conserved
the final state is (to a good approximation) purely CP even. In that case this decay mode …

Flavor changing effects in theories with a heavy boson with family nonuniversal couplings

P Langacker, M Plümacher - Physical Review D, 2000 - APS
There are theoretical and phenomenological motivations that there may exist additional
heavy Z′ bosons with family nonuniversal couplings. Flavor mixing in the quark and lepton …

Effects of new leptons in electroweak precision data

F Del Aguila, J De Blas, M Perez-Victoria - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2008 - APS
We obtain limits on generic vectorlike leptons at the TeV scale from electroweak precision
tests. These limits are complementary to the ones obtained from lepton flavor violating …

Effects of mixing with quark singlets

JA Aguilar-Saavedra - Physical Review D, 2003 - APS
The mixing of the known quarks with new heavy singlets can modify significantly some
observables with respect to the standard model predictions. We analyze the range of …

Addressing the CKM unitarity problem with a vector-like up quark

GC Branco, JT Penedo, PMF Pereira… - Journal of High Energy …, 2021 - Springer
A bstract We point out that hints of deviations from unitarity in the first row of the CKM matrix
may be explained by the presence of a single vector-like top. We study how the stringent …

Implications of Abelian extended gauge structures from string models

M Cvetič, P Langacker - Physical Review D, 1996 - APS
Within a class of superstring vacua which have an additional nonanomalous U (1)′ gauge
factor, we address the scale of the U (1)′ symmetry breaking and constraints on the exotic …

Probing lepton number violation via Majorana neutrinos at hadron supercolliders

A Datta, M Guchait, A Pilaftsis - Physical Review D, 1994 - APS
The possibility of discovering heavy Majorana neutrinos and lepton number violation via the
like-sign dilepton signal at hadron supercolliders is investigated. The cross sections for the …

Model-independent global constraints on new physics

CP Burgess, S Godfrey, H König, D London… - Physical Review D, 1994 - APS
Using effective-Lagrangian techniques we perform a systematic survey of the lowest-
dimension effective interactions through which heavy physics might manifest itself in present …
