The sensitivity of polarisation-asymmetry correlation experiments to charged currents of right-handed chirality contributing to allowed $beta$-decay is considered in the most general context possible, independently of any type of approximation nor of any specific model for physics beyond the Standard Model of the electroweak interactions. Results are then particularised to general Left-Right Symmetric Models, and experimental prospects offered by mirror nuclei are assessed explicitly on general grounds. In order of decreasing interest, the cases of $^{17}$F, $^{41}$Sc and $^{25}$Al are the most attractive, providing sensitivities better or comparable to allowed pure Gamow-Teller transitions, with the advantage however, that recoil order corrections are smaller in the case of super-allowed decays.

Recent lattice determinations of direct CP violation in kaon decays, parametrized by $epsilon$, suggest a discrepancy of several sigma between experiment and the standard model. Assuming that this situation is due to new physics, we investigate a sol
ution in terms of right-handed charged currents. Chiral perturbation theory, in combination with lattice QCD results, allows one to accurately determine the effect of right-handed interactions on $epsilon$. In addition, similar techniques provide a direct link between the right-handed contributions to $epsilon$ and hadronic electric dipole moments. We demonstrate that the $epsilon$ discrepancy can be resolved with right-handed charged currents, and that this scenario can be falsified by next-generation hadronic electric dipole moment experiments.
In a supersymmetric model, the presence of a right handed neutrino with a large Yukawa coupling $f_{ u}$ would affect slepton masses via its contribution to the renormalization group evolution between the grand unification and weak scales. Assuming a
hierarchichal pattern of neutrino masses, these effects are large for only the third generation of sleptons. We construct mass combinations to isolate the effect of $f_{ u}$ from mass corrections already expected from tau Yukawa couplings. We then analyze the size of these effects, assuming that the Super-Kamiokande data constrain 0.033 eV $alt m_{ u_{tau}} alt 0.1$ eV and that neutrino masses arise via a see-saw mechanism. We also explore whether these effects might be detectable in experiments at future $e^+e^-$ linear colliders. We find that $m_{tnu_{tau}}$ needs to be measured with a precision of about 2-3% to measure the effect of $f_{ u}$ if the neutrino and top Yukawa couplings unify at the grand unification scale. In a simple case study, we find a precision of only 6-10% might be attainable after several years of operation. If the neutrino Yukawa coupling is larger, or in more complicated models of neutrino masses, a determination of $ttau_1$ and $tnu_{tau}$ masses might provide a signal of a Yukawa interaction of neutrinos.
Under the working hypothesis that the structure of a bound hadron is modified by its interactions with other hadrons, one may expect to see changes in carefully chosen observables. In the light of a recent proposal to measure the axial charge in the
strangeness changing beta-decay of a bound Lambda hyperon, we examine the size of the change expected within the quark-meson coupling model. It is predicted to be significant.
We consider the recent LHCb result for $B_cto J/psi tau u$ in conjunction with the existing anomalies in $R(D)$ and $R(D^star)$ within the framework of a right-handed current with enhanced couplings to the third generation. The model predicts a line
ar relation between the observables and their SM values in terms of two combinations of parameters. The strong constraints from $bto s gamma$ on $W-W^prime$ mixing effectively remove one of the combinations of parameters resulting in an approximate proportionality between all three observables and their SM values. To accommodate the current averages for $R(D)$ and $R(D^star)$, the $W^prime$ mass should be near 1 TeV, and possibly accessible to direct searches at the LHC. In this scenario we find that $R(J/psi)$ is enhanced by about 20% with respect to its SM value and about 1.5$sigma$ below the central value of the LHCb measurement. The predicted $dGamma/dq^2$ distribution for $Bto D(D^star) tau u$ is in agreement with the measurement and the model satisfies the constraint from the $B_c$ lifetime.
We study the impact of the mixing (LR mixing) between the standard model $W$ boson and its hypothetical, heavier right-handed parter $W_R$ on the neutrinoless double beta decay ($0 ubetabeta$-decay) rate. Our study is done in the minimal left-right s
ymmetric model assuming type-II dominance scenario with charge conjugation as the left-right symmetry. We then show that the $0 ubetabeta$-decay rate may be dominated by the contribution proportional to this LR mixing, which at the hadronic level induces the leading-order contribution to the interaction between two pions and two charged leptons. The resulting long-range pion exchange contribution can significantly enhance the decay rate compared to previously considered short-range contributions. Finally, we find that even if future cosmological experiments rule out the inverted hierarchy for neutrino masses, there are still good prospects for a positive signal in the next generation of $0 ubetabeta$-decay experiments.
