abstract

We present a comprehensive review of physics effects generated by leptoquarks (LQs), i.e., hypothetical particles that can turn quarks into leptons and vice versa, of either scalar or vector nature. These considerations include discussion of possible completions of the Standard Model that contain LQ fields. The main focus of the review is on those LQ scenarios that are not problematic with regard to proton stability. We accordingly concentrate on the phenomenology of light leptoquarks that is relevant for precision experiments and particle colliders. Important constraints on LQ interactions with matter are derived from precision low-energy observables such as electric dipole moments, (g-2) of charged leptons, atomic parity violation, neutral meson mixing, Kaon, B, and D meson decays, etc. We provide a general analysis of indirect constraints on the strength of LQ interactions with the quarks and leptons to make statements that are as model independent as possible. We address complementary constraints that originate from electroweak precision measurements, top, and Higgs physics. The Higgs physics analysis we present covers not only the most recent but also expected results from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). We finally discuss direct LQ searches. Current experimental situation is summarized and self-consistency of assumptions that go into existing accelerator-based searches is discussed. A progress in making next-to-leading order predictions for both pair and single LQ productions at colliders is also outlined.

Large Language Model-Assisted Framework for BSM Model Building

hep-ph · 2026-06-19 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

An open-source framework that automates BSM Lagrangian construction, anomaly checks, and mass-matrix derivation from natural-language field specifications by using an LLM only as an orchestration layer over a deterministic symbolic backend.

Dark Matter Induced Proton Decays

hep-ph · 2025-06-04 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

A framework unifies dark matter stability and proton decay via residual Z4 symmetry from U(1)B+L breaking, with one-loop proton decay mediated by TeV-scale dark sector particles whose masses correlate with proton lifetime.

Reach and complementarity of $\mu\to e$ searches

hep-ph · 2022-04-01 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Derives new physics scale constraints in a six-dimensional EFT subspace for μ to e transitions using data from μ→eγ, μ→3e, and nuclear conversion experiments while highlighting their complementarity.

$B$ anomalies and the tauphilic leptoquark model

hep-ph · 2026-05-09 · unverdicted · novelty 4.0

A tauphilic leptoquark model with S1 explaining R(D(*)), ~R2 fitting B to K nu nu via right-handed coefficients, and S3 satisfying Delta m_Bs via mixing predicts subdominant negative C_VL, dominant positive C_SL, C9^LQ approx +1, and masses below 3 TeV.

Weak Triplet Models of Neutrino Magnetic Moments

hep-ph · 2026-05-19 · unverdicted · novelty 3.0

Weak triplet models permit decoupling of neutrino magnetic moment from mass in minimal realizations but require delicate parameter adjustments for observable effects, and lose the decoupling in extended scenarios.
