New sources of flavour violation at high transverse momenta (C3a)

• Subject Area: Nuclear and Elementary Particle Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Relativity, Fields
• Term: since 2019
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 396021762

This project studies the phenomenology of new flavour-violating interactions in high-energy collider experiments. The presence of such interactions at the TeV scale is expected in many New Physics models, and it is suggested by the observation of several anomalies in the flavour sector.Furthermore, it has important implications on direct searches for new particles: LHC constraints on the viable parameter space of New Physics models change significantly in the presence of flavour violation, and new flavour-violating signatures are predicted as promising discovery channels.
