The present Baryon Asymmetry of the Universe (BAU) can be explained in the framework of the type-I seesaw mechanism for neutrino mass generation through leptogenesis (LG). The L-, C- and CP-violating processes involving the right-handed neutrinos can generate an early lepton asymmetry, which is later converted into the present BAU by sphalerons. Remarkably, all the necessary CP-violation...
I will present a general analysis for the discovery potential of CP-violation (CPV) searches in scattering processes at TeV-scale colliders in an effective field theory approach.
The CP-violating sector of the SMEFT framework will be examined in some well motivated limiting cases, based on flavour symmetries of the underlying heavy theory. In particular, we show that under naturality...
A tentative approach to explain the flavor puzzle consists of embedding the Standard Model in a larger gauge symmetry that contains a separate gauge group for each fermion family. In such gauge non-universal (or flavor-deconstructed) theories, neutrinos pose some challenges. I will discuss existing ideas in the literature and present a simple model in which flavor deconstruction naturally...
The FASER experiment at the LHC explores long-lived particles (LLPs) and their connections to flavour symmetries. Recent results include constraints on dark photons and axion-like particles (ALPs), which are often motivated by flavour-related dynamics, as well as the first detection of high-energy collider neutrinos, providing insights into neutrino flavour oscillations and constraints on...
