Recent precise determination of the electron anomalous magnetic moment (AMM) adds to the longstanding tension of the muon AMM and together strongly point towards physics beyond the Standard Model (BSM). Here we present a solution to both anomalies via a light scalar that emerges from a second Higgs doublet and resides in the $\mathcal{O}(10)$-MeV to $\mathcal{O}(1)$-GeV mass range. A scalar...

In certain extensions of the Standard Model(SM), the interactions between the new scalars and the SM Higgs can cause the electroweak(EW) symmetry to remain broken at temperatures well above the electroweak scale. Fermionic-induced EW symmetry non-restoration (EWSNR) effect has also been studied in the context of effective field theories, where EWSNR is linked to some non-renormalizable...

Models of freeze-in dark matter that incorporate two or more dark matter mass eigenstates, typically below $\sim$100 keV, can simultaneously account for the observed baryon asymmetry, through the oscillations of the out-of-equilibrium dark matter particles. We consider the case in which the dark matter is produced by early-universe decays of electroweak-charged scalars, the lightest of which...

We introduce a new approach to the Higgs naturalness problem, where the value of the Higgs mass is tied to cosmic stability and the possibility of a large observable Universe. The Higgs mixes with the dilaton of a CFT sector whose true ground state has a large negative vacuum energy. If the Higgs VEV is non-zero and below ~TeV, the CFT also admits a second metastable vacuum, where the...

We study electroweak phase transition and resultant GWs of a CP conserving 2HDM with a softly broken $Z_2$ symmetry. We analysed the parameter space of both type I and type II 2hdm without relying on any decoupling limit. We observe $M_{H^\pm} \approx M_H$ or $M_{H^\pm} \approx M_A$ favours SFOEWPT in 2HDM. In addition to di-Higgs production, scalar to fermion decay channel is also important...

We study the effect of interference on the lepton number violating (LNV) and lepton number conserving (LNC) three-body meson decays $M^+_1 → l^+_i l^±_j π^∓$, that arise in a TeV scale Left Right Symmetric model (LRSM) with degenerate or nearly degenerate right handed (RH) neutrinos. LRSM contains three RH neutrinos and a RH gauge boson. The RH neutrinos with masses in the...

Explaining the tiny neutrino masses and non-zero mixings have been one of the key motivations for going beyond the framework of the Standard Model (SM). We discuss a collider testable model for generating neutrino masses and mixings via radiative seesaw mechanism. That the model does not require any additional symmetry to forbid tree-level seesaws makes its collider phenomenology interesting....
