Closing in on New Physics in light-quark flavour transitions: from tau decays to the LHC

Objective

This action studies the synergy of the Energy and the Intensity Frontiers, with the focus on non-standard effects involving leptons and light quarks. The project starts with an unprecedented Effective-Field-Theory (EFT) analysis of hadronic tau decays including non-standard effects. Their discovery potential and complementarity with direct LHC searches will be assessed in a model-independent approach. The results will be combined with d(s)→u l nu (l=e,mu) transitions and eq → eq (q=u,d,s) processes in a comprehensive EFT flavour fit that will close in on New Physics involving leptons and light quarks.

The obtained model-independent results will be particularised to specific New Physics scenarios that are of phenomenological or theoretical interest. Special attention will be paid to symmetries, symmetry-breaking patterns and classes of models with well-defined power-counting schemes. The emerging correlations between the studied observables will be analysed in detail. Finally, the EFT matching to a general Leptoquark parametrisation will be carried out, along with a phenomenological analysis. The implications for specific models proposed in the recent literature to accommodate various Standard Model tensions will be studied.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

ORGANISATION EUROPEENNE POUR LA RECHERCHE NUCLEAIRE
Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
