It is known that the CP-even and CP-odd scalars contribute with an opposite sign to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon.
We study popular scalar extensions of the Standard Model, namely the singlet extension, the 2-Higgs doublet model (2HDM) and the doublet plus singlet extension.
We show that these models are incapable of explaining the observed discrepancy in (g−2)_\mu, with the exce

We embed a thermal dark matter (DM) candidate within the clockwork framework. This mechanism allows to stabilize the DM particle over cosmological time because it suppresses its decay into Standard Model (SM) particles. At the same time, pair annihilations are unsuppressed, so that the relic density is set by the usual freeze-out of the DM particle from the thermal bath. The slow decay of the DM c

In this talk we analyze the sources of lepton flavor violation in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) in the processes $l → l’ \gamma$ and $h → ll’$. Using the Flavor Expansion Theorem, a recently developed technique of a purely algebraic mass-insertion expansion of the amplitudes, we recover the direct analytic dependence of the results on the MSSM Lagrangian parameters.

The latest Planck CMB data seem to strongly constrain the Hot Dark Matter scenarios, although they stay in tension with direct Hubble constant measurements. However, one can believe that in near future the experimental uncertainly for the effective number of neutrino species N_{eff} will shrink vastly. Therefore, in order to estimate the allowed parameter space of models predicting a Hot Dark Matt

We explore the phenomenology of a unique three-Higgs-doublet model based
on the single CP symmetry of order 4 (CP4) without any accidental symmetries. The CP4
symmetry is imposed on the scalar potential and Yukawa interactions, strongly shaping both
sectors of the model and leading to a very characteristic phenomenology.
Although the model is very constrained by CP4, we find points in the par

We assume that the origin of the electroweak (EW) scale is a gauge-invariant scalar-bilinear condensation in a strongly interacting non-abelian gauge sector.
The dynamical scale genesis appears as a phase transition at finite temperature, and it can produce a gravitational wave (GW) background in the early Universe.

The choice of initial conditions in multifield inflation has a direct effect on observable quantities.

The possibility that alignment arises in 2HDM as a consequence of the high-scale behaviour of the theory is discussed here. Requiring the 2HDM to be bounded from below and perturbative up to scales as low as a few TeV forces the lightest CP-even scalar to have SM-like properties for model Type II. Analogous conclusions are found for model I, if the charged higgs mass is larger than about 400 GeV.
