    The $(g-2)_{\mu}$ anomaly is a longstanding problem in particle physics and many models are proposed to explain it. Leptoquark (LQ) models can be the solution to this anomaly because of the chiral enhancements. In this talk, we consider the models extended by the LQ and vector-like quark (VLQ) simultaneously. In the minimal LQ models, only the $R_2$ and $S_1$ representations can lead to the...

    In recent times, several hints of lepton flavour universality violation have been observed in semileptonic B decays, which point towards the existence of New Physics beyond the Standard Model. In this context, we consider a new variant of $U(1)_{L_{\mu}-L_{\tau}}$ gauge extension of Standard Model, containing three additional neutral fermions $N_{e}, N_{\mu}, N_{\tau}$, along with a...

    The Inert Doublet Model (IDM) is a simple extension of the Standard Model, introducing an additional Higgs doublet that brings in four new scalar particles. The lightest of the IDM scalars is stable and is a good candidate for a dark matter particle.

    Many scenarios of physics beyond the Standard Model predict dark sectors containing new particles interacting only feebly with ordinary matter. Collider searches for these scenarios have largely focused on identifying signatures of new mediators, leaving much of the dark sector structure unexplored. We investigate the existence of a light dark-matter bound state, the darkonium,...

    A resonant structure has been observed at ATOMKI in the invariant mass of electron-positron pairs, produced after excitation of nuclei such as $^8$Be and $^4$He by means of proton beams. Such a resonant structure can be interpreted as the production of an hypothetical particle (X17) whose mass is around 17 MeV.

    Many theories beyond the Standard Model predict new phenomena giving rise to multijet final states. These jets could originate from the decay of a heavy resonance into SM quarks or gluons, or from more complicated decay chains involving additional resonances that decay e.g. into leptons. Also of interest are resonant and non-resonant hadronic final states with jets originating from a dark...

    Many new physics models, e.g., compositeness, extra dimensions, extended Higgs sectors, supersymmetric theories, and dark sector extensions, are expected to manifest themselves in the final states with hadronic jets. This talk presents searches in CMS for new phenomena in the final states that include jets, focusing on the recent results obtained using the full Run-II data-set collected at the LHC.

    Leptoquarks are predicted by many new physics theories to describe the similarities between the lepton and quark sectors of the Standard Model and offer an attractive potential explanation for the lepton flavour anomalies observed at LHCb and flavour factories. The ATLAS experiment has a broad program of direct searches for leptoquarks, coupling to the first-, second- or third-generation...

    Many new physics models predict low mass resonances. However, the kinematic thresholds used in the nominal data taking program of CMS pose a difficulty in kinematically accessing these resonances. To overcome this problem, CMS has implemented Data Scouting Techniques that allow trigger thresholds to be lowered by saving a very limited amount of trigger-level event information offline. In this...

    The electron-positron stage of the Future Circular Collider (FCC-ee) is a frontier factory for Higgs, electroweak, QCD and flavour physics. It is designed to operate in a 100 km circular tunnel built at CERN, and will serve as the first step towards 100-TeV proton-proton collisions. In addition to an essential and unique Higgs program, FCC-ee offers powerful opportunities to discover direct or...

    We propose a two-stage strategy to search for new long-lived particles that could be produced at the CERN LHC, become trapped in detector material, and decay later. In the first stage, metal rods are exposed to LHC collisions in an experimental cavern. In the second stage, they are immersed in liquid argon at a different location, where out-of-time decays could be detected. Using a benchmark...
