We calculate the one-loop level contributions from the T-parity odd mirror fermions and gauge bosons. The results show that the top quark rare decay t --~ cA in the LHT model can be significantly enhanced relative to that in the SM. The bs^- production at linear colliders in the LHT model can enhance the SM cross section a lot and reach 0.1 fb in some parameter space allowed in the experiment. But the heavy gauge boson and mirror fermion loops have small contribution to the processes pp --~ 5~ and e＋e- →bs^-h. So the LHT effect on e^＋e^- → bs^- might be detected at future linear colliders, while it is too sma/l to be seen for the e^＋e^- →bs^-h and pp → bs^- processes at future linear colliders and LHC.展开更多

It is natural to consider that the rare decays of D meson might be more sensitive to new physics, and the decay mode D0→μ＋μ-could be an ideal area to search for new physics because it is a flavor changing process. In this work we look for a trace of the new physics BSM in the leptonic decays of D0. Concretely we discuss the contributions of unparticle or an extra gauge boson Z while imposing the constraints set by fitting the D0-ˉD0mixing data. We find that the long-distance SM effects for D0→lˉl still exceed those contributions of the BSM under consideration, but for a double-flavor changing process such as D0→μ±e, the new physics contribution would be significant.展开更多

About 10^6-10^8 hyperons, i.e., ∧, ∑, ∈, and Ω, will be produced in the J/φ and φ（2S） decays with the proposed data samples at BESⅢ. Based on these samples, the measurement sensitivity of the branching fractions of the hyperon decays is in the range of 10^-5-10^-8. In addition, with the known center-of-mass energy and ＂tag technique＂, rare decays and decays with invisible final states can be probed.展开更多

In this work we first propose a diagonalization method. As its application, in the Standard Model with one vector-like quark doublet we present the quark mass spectrum and Feynman rules for the calculation of B → Xsγ. We find that i） under the constraints of the CKM matrix measurements, the mass parameters in the bilinear term are constrained to a small value by the small deviation from unitarity; ii） compared with the fourth generation extension of the Standard Model, there is an enhancement to the B → Xsγ process in the contribution of vector-like quarks, resulting in a non-decoupling effect in such models.展开更多

Recently,these anomalies have been confirmed by Belle, CMS and ATLAS. As direct evidence of physics beyond the Standard Model is absent so far, these anomalies are being interpreted as indirect hints of new physics. In this context, we study the implications of the family non-universal Z′ model for the angular observables P（1,2,3）, P′（4,5,6） and newly proposed lepton flavor universality violation observables, Q（4,5）, in the B → K^＊（→Kπ）μ^＋μ^-decay channel in the low dimuon mass region. To see the variation in the values of these observables from their Standard Model values, we have chosen different scenarios for the Z′ model. It is found that these angular observables are sensitive to the values of the parameters of the Z′ model. We have also found that with the present parametric space of the Z′ model,the P′5-anomaly could be accommodated. However, more statistics on the anomalies in the angular observables are helpful to reveal the status of the considered model and, in general, the nature of new physics.展开更多
