A call for new physics: the muon anomalous magnetic moment and lepton flavor violation

M Lindner, M Platscher, FS Queiroz - Physics Reports, 2018 - Elsevier
We review how the muon anomalous magnetic moment (g− 2) and the quest for lepton flavor
violation are intimately correlated. Indeed the decay μ→ e γ is induced by the same …

Neutrino masses from generalized symmetry breaking

C Cordova, S Hong, S Koren, K Ohmori - Physical Review X, 2024 - APS
We explore generalized global symmetries in theories of physics beyond the standard
model. Theories of Z′ bosons generically contain “noninvertible” chiral symmetries, whose …

Cosmology with a very light Lμ− Lτ gauge boson

M Escudero, D Hooper, G Krnjaic, M Pierre - Journal of High Energy …, 2019 - Springer
A bstract In this paper, we explore in detail the cosmological implications of an abelian L μ−
L τ gauge extension of the Standard Model featuring a light and weakly coupled Z′. Such a …

Explaining dark matter and B decay anomalies with an L μ− L τ model

W Altmannshofer, S Gori, S Profumo… - Journal of High Energy …, 2016 - Springer
A bstract We present a dark sector model based on gauging the L μ− L τ symmetry that
addresses anomalies in b→ sμ+ μ− decays and that features a particle dark matter …

Search for a light in the scenario with the NA64- experiment at CERN

YM Andreev, D Banerjee, B Banto Oberhauser… - Physical Review D, 2022 - APS
The extension of Standard Model made by inclusion of additional U (1) gauge L μ-L τ
symmetry can explain the difference between the measured and the predicted value of the …

Light dark matter in a gauged model

P Foldenauer - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
As experimental null results increase the pressure on heavy weakly interacting massive
particles (WIMPs) as an explanation of thermal dark matter (DM), it seems timely to explore …

Detecting the gauge boson at Belle II

T Araki, S Hoshino, T Ota, J Sato, T Shimomura - Physical Review D, 2017 - APS
We discuss the feasibility of detecting the gauge boson of the U (1) L μ-L τ symmetry, which
possesses a mass in the range between MeV and GeV, at the Belle-II experiment. The …

How to rule out (g − 2)μ in with white dwarf cooling

P Foldenauer, JH Zink - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2024 - Springer
A bstract In recent years, the gauge group\(\textrm {U}{(1)} _ {L_ {\mu}-{L} _ {\tau}}\) has
received a lot of attention since it can, in principle, account for the observed excess in the …

Interplay between neutrino and gravity portals for FIMP dark matter

M Chianese, B Fu, SF King - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
In the classic type I seesaw mechanism with very heavy right-handed (RH) neutrinos, it is
possible to account for dark matter via RH neutrino portal couplings to a feebly interacting …

Minimal gauged models driven into a corner

K Asai, K Hamaguchi, N Nagata, SY Tseng, K Tsumura - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
It is well known that the differences between the lepton numbers can be gauged with the
standard model matter content. Such extended gauge theories, dubbed as the gauged U (1) …
