Physics rationale n Finding New Particles, arising from New Forces is the goal of High Energy Physics n Motivated by: dark matter, hierarchy problem, particle masses, origin of CKM elements n ATLAS & CMS can detect these directly n LHCb & other flavor physics experiments (Belle II, BES III, DUNE, Muon g-2, µ to e conversion) do this indirectly DPF , August, 2017 2
Effects on M W from quantum loops n FP probes large mass scales via virtual quantum loops. An example, of the importance of such loops are changes in the W mass q M w changes due to m t dM W α m t dm t M w q M w changes due to m H dM W α − dm H dm H M H Gave predictions of m H prior to discovery DPF , August, 2017 3
Lepton flavor universality n In the SM differences between interactions of individual charged leptons can only be due to their masses, which leads to precise predictions n m τ /m µ /m e : 3477 / 207 / 1 n Seemed prudent to makes some tests n Hiller & Kruger suggest order ~10% effects from some NP models ( hep-ph/0310219) DPF , August, 2017 4

Conclusions n We may be seeing the first hints of physics beyond the SM in a failure of lepton flavor universality n This implies lepton flavor violation, e.g. may be able to see B - → K - τ ± µ ∓ (Glashow, Guadagnoli & Lane arXiv:1411.0565) n Viable models include: q Z ′ : not just a heavy Z, different couplings, e.g. Z ′→ bs q Leptoquarks Can these be seen in direct production at the LHC?
