We analyze several signals at HERA and the Tevatron of a light $U(1)_B$ gauge boson ($gamma_B$) coupling to baryon number. We show that the study of the production of $b bar{b}$ pairs at the (upgraded) Tevatron can exclude $gamma_B$ with masses ($m_B$) in the range $40 lesssim m_B lesssim 300$ GeV for $gamma_B$ couplings ($alpha_B$) greater than $2 times 10^{-2}$ ($3 times 10^{-3}$). We also show that the HERA experiments cannot improve the present bounds on $gamma_B$. Moreover, we demonstrate that the production at HERA and the Tevatron of di--jet events with large rapidity gaps between the jets cannot be explained by the existence of a light $gamma_B$.

We study a model with $U(1)_{L_mu - L_tau}$ gauge symmetry and discuss collider searches for a scalar boson, which breaks $U(1)_{L_mu - L_tau}$ symmetry spontaneously, decaying into light $Z$ gauge boson. In this model, the new gauge boson, $Z$, with a mass lighter than $mathcal{O}(100)$ MeV, plays a role in explaining the anomalous magnetic moment of muon via one-loop contribution. For the gauge boson to have such a low mass, the scalar boson, $phi$ with $mathcal{O}(100)$ GeV mass appears associated with the symmetry breaking. We investigate experimental constraints on $U(1)_{L_mu - L_tau}$ gauge coupling, kinetic mixing, and mixing between the SM Higgs and $phi$. Then collider search is discussed considering $phi$ production followed by decay process $phi to Z Z$ at the large hadron collider and the international linear collider. We also estimate discovery significance at the linear collider taking into account relevant kinematical cut effects.
We investigate a model of R-parity violating (RPV) supersymmetry in which the right-handed sbottom is the lightest supersymmetric particle, and a baryon number violating coupling involving a top is the only non-negligible RPV coupling. This model evades proton decay and flavour constraints. We consider in turn each of the couplings lambda_{313} and lambda_{323} as the only non-negligible RPV coupling, and we recast two recent Large Hadron Collider (LHC) measurements and searches (CMS top transverse momentum p_T(t) spectrum and ATLAS multiple jet resonance search) in the form of constraints on the mass-coupling parameter planes. We delineate a large region in the parameter space of the mass of the sbottom (m_{b_R}) and the lambda_{313} coupling that is ruled out by the measurements, as well as a smaller region in the parameter space of m_{b_R} and lambda_{323}. A certain region of the m_{b_R}-lambda_{313} parameter space was previously found to successfully explain the anomalously large ttbar forward backward asymmetry measured by Tevatron experiments. The entire region is excluded at the 95% CL by CMS measurements of the top p_T spectrum. We also present p_T(ttbar) distributions of the forward-backward asymmetry for this model.
There is a growing interest for the search of new light gauge bosons. The small mass of a new boson can turn various kinds of low-energy experiments to a new discovery machine, depending on their couplings to the standard model particles. It is important to understand the properties of each type of gauge boson and their current constraints for a given mass. While the dark photon (which couples to the electric charges) and the $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge boson have been well studied in an extensive mass range, the $U(1)_L$ gauge boson has not been fully investigated yet. We consider the gauge boson of the $U(1)_L$ in a wide mass range $m_{Z} approx 0 - 10^{12} ~ev$ and investigate the constraints on its coupling from various experiments, discussing the similarities and differences from the dark photon and the $U(1)_{B-L}$ gauge boson.
We propose a Standard Model extension by a $U(1)_{R}$ gauge symmetry where only right-handed chiral fermions can carry a non-trivial charge. Here we show that the simplest anomaly-free solution to accommodate the proton charge radius discrepancy takes right-handed muons $mu_R$ and first generation quarks, $u_R$ and $d_R$. Consistency with the latest muons $(g-2)$ measurements is achieved through an extra light scalar, which itself must lie in the tens of MeV mass range to be viable.
We study the production of massive gauge bosons during inflation from the axion-type coupling to the inflaton and the corresponding oscillatory features in the primordial non-Gaussianity. In a window in which both the gauge boson mass and the chemical potential are large, the signal is potentially reachable by near-future large scale structure probes. This scenario covers a new region in oscillation frequency which is not populated by previously known cosmological collider models. We also demonstrate how to properly include the exponential factor and discuss the subtleties in obtaining power dependence of the gauge boson mass in the signal estimate.
