An analytical expression for the spin-averaged amplitude squared of the rare muon decay $μ^+ \to e^+e^-e^+ν_e\bar{ν_μ}$ is calculated. Monte Carlo phase space simulation using the analytical expression for the amplitude has been used to get various differential distributions of charged leptons. The approximate analytical expression for the total energy spectrum of charged leptons near the end point is presented. The dependence of branching ratio on cuts in total energy of charged leptons is studied taking into account an experimental energy resolution. It is shown that the measured branching ratio is very sensitive to the energy resolution.
Using the automation program GoSam, fully differential NLO corrections were obtained for the rare decay of the muon $μ\to eν\barνee$. This process is an important Standard Model background to searches of the Mu3e collaboration for lepton-flavour violation, as it becomes indistinguishable from the signal $μ\to 3e$ if the neutrinos carry little energy. With our NLO program we are able to compute the branching ratio as well as custom-tailored observables for the experiment. With minor modifications, related decays of the tau can also be computed.

We perform a quantitative analysis of the decays of $cc\bar c\bar c$ tetraquarks with $J^{PC}=0^{++}, 2^{++}$ into 4 muons and into hidden- and open-charm mesons and estimate, for the first time, the fully charmed tetraquark decay width. The calculated cross section upper limit is $\sim 40$ fb for the 4 muons channel, and $\sim 28$ nb for the $D^{(*)} \bar D^{(*)} \to eμ$ channel. On the basis of our results, with the present sensitivity LHCb should detect both signals, for $0^{++}$ and $2^{++}$ fully-charmed tetraquarks.
A model with $L_μ -L_τ$ gauge symmetry is the least constrained model as a resolution to the disagreement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment between the theoretical predictions and the experimental results. In this paper, we discuss how well the $L_μ - L_τ$ model can be constrained by looking for decays of the charged kaon associated with a $L_μ-L_τ$ gauge boson. More concretely, we consider searches for single muon tracks from the decays of stopped charged kaon as in the E949 experiment. In our conservative estimation, we find that the favored parameter region for the muon anomalous magnet…
With an eye toward the precision physics of the LHC, FCC-ee and possible high energy muon colliders, we present the extension of the CEEX (coherent exclusive exponentiation) realization of the YFS approach to resummation in our KK MC to include the processes f\bar{f}\rightarrow f'\bar{f'}, f=μ,τ, q,ν_\ell, f'=e, μ,τ, q, ν_\ell, q=u,d,s,c,b,t, \ell =e,μ,τwith f \ne f'. After giving a brief summary of the CEEX theory with reference to the older EEX (exclusive exponentiation) theory, we illustrate theoretical results relevant to the LHC, FCC-ee, and possible muon collider physics programs.
New heavy vector bosons and light scalars are predicted in a plethora of models of new physics. In particular, in new strongly interacting sectors they play the role of the $ρ$ and $π$ mesons in QCD. We show that some of their interactions, for example those required for the explanation of the $B$ anomalies and the $g-2$ of the muon, can be only probed in $B$ meson decays. We highlight new golden channels not yet studied experimentally, including $B^+ \rightarrow K^+(D^+)μ^+μ^-μ^+μ^-$ and $B^0\rightarrow K^{*0}μ^+μ^-μ^+μ^-$. Relying on generator level simulations for data taking with the LHCb …
We propose a leptoquark model simultaneously to explain anomalies of muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment and $b\to s μ\barμ$ in light of experimental reports very recently. Here, we satisfy several stringent constraints such as $μ\to eγ$ and meson mixings. In addition, we find these leptoquarks also play an role in generating tiny neutrino masses at one-loop level without introducing any additional symmetries. We have numerical analysis and show how degrees our parameter space is restricted.
Simple dynamics, few available decay channels, and extremely well controlled radiative and loop corrections, make pion and muon decays a sensitive means for testing the underlying symmetries, the universality of weak fermion couplings, as well as for study of pion structure and chiral dynamics. We review the current state of experimental study of the allowed rare decays of charged pions: (a) electronic, $π^+ \to e^+ν_e$, or $π_{e2}$, (b) radiative, $π^+ \to e^+ν_eγ$, or $π_{e2γ}$, and (c) semileptonic, $π^+\to π^0 e^+ ν$, or $π_{e3}$, as well as muon radiative decay, $μ^+\to e^+ ν_{\text{e}}\b…
This paper provides a detailed description of the method for the first direct measurement of all Michel parameters in the $τ^- \to μ^- \barν_μν_τ$ decay related to the polarization of the daughter muon. An application of the suggested method in the existing and future experiments at $e^+e^-$ colliders is considered. We have performed a feasibility study for the future Super Charm-Tau Factory and Belle II experiments. For the first one, the sensitivity to the Michel parameters $ξ'$, $ξ''$, $η''$, $α'/A$, and $β'/A$ is estimated. For the latter, only one Michel parameter, $ξ'$, for which the sen…
We perform a quantitative analysis of the $bb\bar{b}\bar{b}$ tetraquark decays into hidden- and open-bottom mesons and calculate, for the first time, the $bb\bar{b}\bar{b}$ tetraquark total decay width. On the basis of our results, we propose the $bb\bar{b}\bar{b} \to B^{+} B^{-} (B^0 \bar{B}^0) (B_s^0 \bar{B}_s^0) \to l^{+} l^{-}+\text{X}$ decays as the most suitable channels to observe the $bb\bar{b}\bar{b}$ tetraquark states, since the calculated two-lepton cross section upper limit, $\simeq 39 $ fb, is so large as to be potentially detectable with the 2018 LHCb sensitivity, paving the way …
Highest energy neutrino events (contained) in cubic km ICECUBE detector resulted in last three years to be as many as $37-2=35$ signals (two of those having been recently discharged); these tens-hundred TeV (32 energetic events) up to rarest (only 3) PeV cascade showers, proved to have an extraterrestrial origin. The UHE neutrino flavor transition from a $ν_μ$ atmospheric dominance (over $ν_{e}$ showers at TeV energy), toward a higher energy shower cascade ($ν_{e}$, $ν_τ$) events at few tens TeV up to PeV energy is a hint of such a fast extraterrestrial injection. The majority (28 out of 35) o…
The difference between the updated experimental result on the muon anomalous magnetic dipole moment and the corresponding theoretical prediction of the standard model on that is about $4.2$ standard deviations. In this work, we calculate the muon anomalous MDM at the two-loop level in the supersymmetric $B-L$ extension of the standard model. Considering the experimental constraints on the lightest Higgs boson mass, Higgs boson decay modes $h\rightarrow γγ,\;WW,\;ZZ,\; b\bar b,\;τ\barτ$, B rare decay $\bar B\rightarrow X_sγ$, and the transition magnetic moments of Majorana neutrinos, we analyze…
Recently, the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations measured the 125 GeV Higgs boson decay to a pair of muons $h\rightarrow μ\barμ$, which reported the signal strength relative to the standard model (SM) prediction is $1.2\pm0.6$ and $1.19^{+0.40+0.15}_{-0.39-0.14}$, respectively. In this work, we investigate the 125 GeV Higgs boson decay $h\rightarrow μ\barμ$ at one-loop level in the $μ$ from $ν$ Supersymmetric Standard Model ($μν$SSM). Compared to the SM prediction, the decay width of $h\rightarrow μ\barμ$ in the $μν$SSM can boost up about 10\%, considering the constraint from the muon anomalous magn…
The invisible variant axion models (VAM's) offer a very attractive solution for the strong CP problem without the domain wall problem. We consider the up-type specific variant axion models and examine their compatibility with the muon $g-2$ anomaly and the constraints from lepton flavor universality, several flavor observables, and top quark measurements. We find that the combined $χ^2$ fit favors the parameters $m_A\sim 15$ GeV and $\tanβ\sim 40$, the same as the type-X 2HDM. Moreover, we find that there are no conflict with any flavor observables as long as the mixing angle $ρ_u$ is sufficie…
包含大额外空间维的模型对轻子味破坏过程有有趣的预言。我们考虑了一些与中微子质量产生有关的5D模型，或者解决了费米子质量等级问题。我们研究的签名在低能量实验中，可以区分不同的模型。重点是原子核中的μ子-电子转换、$μ\ra e γ$和$μ\ra 3e$过程及其对应的$τ$。它们与活动中微子质量矩阵的联系进行了研究。结果表明，在所讨论的模型中，类$μ\ra e γ$稀有过程的分支比远小于类$μ\ra 3e$过程的分支比.这与大多数基于四维规范模型的传统智慧形成鲜明对比。此外，一些罕见的τ衰变比罕见的μ子衰变更有希望。
The muon $(g-2)_μ$ and $b\to s \bar μμ$ induced $B$ anomalies as hints of new physics beyond the standard model (SM) have attracted much attention. These two anomalies indicate that there may exist new interaction specifically related to muon. A lot of theoretical ideas have been proposed to explain these anomalies. Gauged flavor specific $U(1)_{B_q-L_μ}$ is among the promising ones. The new gauge boson $Z'$ from $U(1)_{B_q-L_μ}$ interacts with muon and provides necessary ingredient to solve the $(g-2)_μ$ anomaly. The $Z'$-quark coupling can generate flavor changing interactions after diagonal…
We have investigated $B \to (K,K^*)(l\bar l,ν\barν)$ decay channels and predicted some form factor dependent observables (e.g. branching ratio, forward-backward asymmetry and lepton polarization asymmetry) considering new physics contribution from non-universal $Z'$ model. We have found that there is appreciable difference between the standard model and $Z'$ model predictions. Recently, the lepton flavour non-universality parameters $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$ have been measured by the LHCb collaboration and are found to be different from their standard model predictions. These deviations provide the …
