New Physics models for flavour observables (C3b)

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

Project C3b addresses flavour physics in theories beyond the Standard Model (BSM). We study hints for BSM physics in precision data on rare processes, explore the phenomenology of hypothetical light new particles (such as axion-like particles) in modern flavour experiments, and construct BSM models with quark-lepton unification, horizontal symme-tries, or additional Higgs fields.
