Limits on anomalous triple gauge couplings inpp¯collisions ats=1.96 TeV
2007
We present a search for anomalous triple gauge couplings (ATGC) in WW and WZ boson production. The boson pairs are produced in p (p) over bar collisions at root s = 1.96 TeV, and the data sample corresponds to 350 pb(-1) of integrated luminosity collected with the CDF II detector at the Fermilab Tevatron. In this search one W decays to leptons, and the other boson (W or Z) decays hadronically. Combining with a previously published CDF measurement of W gamma boson production yields ATGC limits of -0.18 <lambda < 0.17 and -0.46 <Delta kappa < 0.39 at the 95% confidence level, using a cutoff scale Lambda=1.5 TeV.
Model independent bounds on the tau lepton electromagnetic and weak magnetic moments
2000
Using LEP1, SLD and LEP2 data, for tau lepton production, and data from CDF, D0 and LEP2, for W decays into tau leptons, we set model independent limits on non-standard electromagnetic and weak magnetic moments of the tau lepton. The most general effective Lagrangian giving rise to tau moments is used without further assumptions. Precise bounds ($2\sigma$) on the non-standard model contributions to tau electromagnetic ($-0.007<a_\gamma< 0.005$), tau Z-magnetic ($-0.0024 <a_Z< 0.0025$) and tau W-magnetic ($-0.003 < \kappa^W < 0.004$) dipole moments are set from the analysis.
Pulsar Velocities without Neutrino Mass
1998
We show that pulsar velocities may arise from anisotropic neutrino emission induced by resonant conversions of massless neutrinos in the presence of a strong magnetic field. The main ingredient is a small violation of weak universality and neither neutrino masses nor magnetic moments are required.
Trimaximal neutrino mixing from scotogenic $A_4$ family symmetry
2021
We propose a flavour theory of leptons implementing an $A_4$ family symmetry. Our scheme provides a simple way to derive trimaximal neutrino mixing from first principles, leading to simple and testable predictions for neutrino mixing and CP violation. Dark matter mediates neutrino mass generation, as in the simplest scotogenic model.

Studies ofτ−→ηK−ντandτ−→ηπ−ντatBABARand a search for a second-class current
2011
We report on analyses of tau lepton decays τ-→ηK-ντ and τ-→ηπ-ντ, with η→π+π-π0, using 470 fb-1 of data from the BABAR experiment at PEP-II, collected at center-of-mass energies at and near the Υ(4S) resonance. We measure the branching fraction for the τ-→ηK-ντ decay mode, B(τ-→ηK-ντ)=(1.42±0.11(stat)±0.07(syst))×10-4, and report a 95% confidence level upper limit for the second-class current process τ-→ηπ-ντ, B(τ-→ηπ-ντ)<9.9×10-5.
Measurements of branching fractions, polarizations, and directCP-violation asymmetries inB+→ρ0K*+andB+→f0(980)K*+decays

We report searches for B-meson decays to the charmless final states rho K* and f0(980) K* with a sample of 232 million BBbar pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e+e- collider at SLAC. We measure the following branching fractions in units of 10^{-6}: B (B+ --> rho0 K*+) = 3.6 +/- 1.7 +/- 0.8 ( rho+ K*0) = 9.6 +/- 1.7 +/- 1.5, B (B0 --> rho- K*+) = 5.4 +/- 3.6 +/- 1.6 ( rho0 K*0) = 5.6 +/- 0.9 +/- 1.3, B (B+ --> f0(980) K*+) = 5.2 +/- 1.2 +/- 0.5, and B (B0 --> f0(980) K*0) = 2.6 +/- 0.6 +/- 0.9 ( rho+ K*0) = 0.52 +/- 0.10 +/- 0.04, f_L (B0 --> rho0 K*0) = 0.57 +/- 0.09 +/- 0.08, A_CP (B+ --> rho+ K*0) = -0.01 +/- 0.16 +/- 0.02, A_CP (B0 --> rho0 K*0) = 0.0…
Search forB+→D+K0andB+→D+K*0decays
2010
We report a search for the rare decays B^+ → D^+K^0 and B^+ → D^+K^0 in an event sample of approximately 465 x 10^6 BB[overbar] pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e^+e^- collider at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. We find no significant evidence for either mode and we set 90% probability upper limits on the branching fractions of ℬ(B^+ → D^+K^0) < 2:9 x 10^(-6) and ℬ(B^+ → D^+K*^0) < 3:0 x 10^(-6).
Measurement of the Bs0 lifetime and production rate with Ds−ℓ+ combinations in Z decays
1995
Abstract The lifetime of the Bs0 meson is measured in approximately 3 million hadronic Z decays accumulated using the ALEPH detector at LEP from 1991 to 1994. Seven different Ds− decay modes were reconstructed and combined with an opposite sign lepton as evidence of semileptonic Bs0 decays. Two hundred and eight Ds−l+ candidates satisfy selection criteria designed to ensure precise proper time reconstruction and yield a measured Bs0 lifetime of τ(Bs0) = 1.59−0.15+0.17 (stat) ±0.03 (syst) ps. Using a larger, less constrained sample of events, the product branching ratio is measured to be Br ( b → B s 0 ) · Br(B s 0 → D s − l + νX) = 0.82 ± 0.09 (stat) −0.14+0.13 (syst) %.
