We present a class of minimal $U(1)_X$ models as a plausible solution to the $R_K$ anomaly that can also help reproduce the neutrino mixing pattern. The symmetries and the corresponding $X$-charges of the fields are determined in a bottom-up approach demanding both theoretical and experimental consistencies. The breaking of $U(1)_X$ symmetry results in a massive $Z^{prime}$, whose couplings with leptons and quarks are necessarily non-universal to address the $R_K$ anomaly. In the process, an additional Higgs doublet is introduced to generate quark mixings. The mixings in the neutrino sector are generated through Type-I seesaw mechanism by the addition of three right handed neutrinos and a scalar singlet. The $Z^{prime}$ can be probed with a few hundred fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity at the 13 TeV LHC in the di-muon channel.

We identify a class of $U(1)_X$ models which can explain the $R_K$ anomaly and the neutrino mixing pattern, by using a bottom-up approach. The different $X$-charges of lepton generations account for the lepton universality violation required to expla in $R_K$. In addition to the three right-handed neutrinos needed for the Type-I seesaw mechanism, these minimal models only introduce an additional doublet Higgs and a singlet scalar. While the former helps in reproducing the quark mixing structure, the latter gives masses to neutrinos and the new gauge boson $Z^prime$. Our bottom-up approach determines the $X$-charges of all particles using theoretical consistency and experimental constraints. We find the parameter space allowed by the constraints from neutral meson mixing, rare $bto s$ decays and direct collider searches for $Z^prime$. Such a $Z^prime$ may be observable at the ongoing run of the Large Hadron Collider with a few hundred fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity.
We analyze the class of models with an extra $U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry that can account for the $b to s ell ell$ anomalies by modifying the Wilson coefficients $C_{9e}$ and $C_{9mu}$ from their standard model values. At the same time, these models gene rate appropriate quark mixing, and give rise to neutrino mixing via the Type-I seesaw mechanism. Apart from the gauge boson $Z$, these frugal models only have three right-handed neutrinos for the seesaw mechanism, an additional $SU(2)_L$ scalar doublet for quark mixing, and a SM-singlet scalar that breaks the $U(1)_X$ symmetry. This set-up identifies a class of leptonic symmetries, and necessitates non-zero but equal charges for the first two quark generations. If the quark mixing beyond the standard model were CKM-like, all these symmetries would be ruled out by the latest flavor constraints on Wilson coefficients and collider constraints on $Z$ parameters. However, we identify a single-parameter source of non-minimal flavor violation that allows a wider class of $U(1)_X$ symmetries to be compatible with all data. We show that the viable leptonic symmetries have to be of the form $L_e pm 3 L_mu - L_tau$ or $L_e - 3 L_mu + L_tau$, and determine the $(M_{Z^prime}, g_{Z^prime})$ parameter space that may be probed by the high-luminosity data at the LHC.
We study a class of general U$(1)^prime$ models to explain the observed dark matter relic abundance and light neutrino masses. The model contains three right handed neutrinos and three gauge singlet Majorana fermions to generate the light neutrino ma ss via the inverse seesaw mechanism. We assign one pair of degenerate sterile neutrinos to be the dark matter candidate whose relic density is generated by the freeze-in mechanism. We consider different regimes of the masses of the dark matter particle and the ${Z^prime}$ gauge boson. The production of the dark matter can occur at different reheating temperatures in various scenarios depending on the masses of the ${Z^prime}$ boson and the dark matter candidate. We also note that if the mass of the sterile neutrino dark matter is $gtrsim 1 rm{MeV}$ and if the $Z^prime$ is heavier than the dark matter, the decay of the dark matter candidate into positrons can explain the long standing puzzle of the galactic $511rm{keV}$ line in the Milky Way center observed by the INTEGRAL satellite. We constrain the model parameters from the dark matter analysis, vacuum stability and the collider searches of heavy ${Z^prime}$ at the LHC. For the case with light $Z^prime$, we also compare how far the parameter space allowed from dark matter relic density can be probed by the future lifetime frontier experiments SHiP and FASERs in the special case of $U(1)_{B-L}$ model.
We consider a gauged $U(1)_{L_mu-L_tau}$ extension of the left-right symmetric theory in order to simultaneously explain neutrino mass, mixing and the muon anomalous magnetic moment. We get sizeable contribution from the interaction of the new light gauge boson $Z_{mutau}$ of the $U(1)_{L_mu-L_tau}$ symmetry with muons which can individually satisfy the current bounds on muon $(g-2)$ anomaly ($Delta a_mu$). The other positive contributions to $Delta a_mu$ come from the interactions of singly charged gauge bosons $W_L$, $W_R$ with heavy neutral fermions and that of neutral CP-even scalars with muons. The interaction of $W_L$ with heavy neutrino is facilitated by inverse seesaw mechanism which allows large light-heavy neutrino mixing and explains neutrino mass in our model. CP-even scalars with mass around few hundreds GeV can also satisfy the entire current muon anomaly bound. The results show that the model gives a small but non-negligible contribution to $Delta a_mu$ thereby eliminating the entire deviation in theoretical prediction and experimental result of muon $(g-2)$ anomaly. We have briefly presented a comparative study for symmetric and asymmetric left-right symmetric model in context of various contribution to $Delta a_mu$. We also discuss how the generation of neutrino mass is affected when left-right symmetry breaks down to Standard Model symmetry via various choices of scalars.

Motivated by the flavored Peccei-Quinn symmetry for unifying the flavor physics and string theory, we construct an explicit model by introducing a $U(1)$ symmetry such that the $U(1)_X$-$[gravity]^2$ anomaly-free condition together with the standard model flavor structure demands additional sterile neutrinos as well as no axionic domain-wall problem. Such additional sterile neutrinos play the role of a realization of baryogenesis via a new Affleck-Dine leptogenesis. We provide grounds for that the $U(1)_X$ symmetry could be interpreted as a fundamental symmetry of nature. The model will resolve rather recent, but fast-growing issues in astro-particle physics, including leptonic mixings and CP violation in neutrino oscillation, high-energy neutrinos, QCD axion, and axion cooling of stars. The QCD axion decay constant, through its connection to the astrophysical constraints of stellar evolution and the SM fermion masses, is shown to be fixed at $F_A=1.30^{+0.66}_{-0.54}times10^{9}$ GeV (consequently, its mass is $m_a=4.34^{+3.37}_{-1.49}$ meV and axion-photon coupling is $|g_{agammagamma}|=1.30^{+1.01}_{-0.45}times10^{-12},{rm GeV}^{-1}$). Interestingly enough, we show that neutrino oscillations at low energies could be connected to astronomical-scale baseline neutrino oscillations. The model predicts non-observational neutrinoless double beta ($0 ubetabeta$) decay rate as well as a remarkable pattern between leptonic Dirac CP phase ($delta_{CP}$) and atmospheric mixing angle ($theta_{23}$); {it e.g.} $delta_{CP}simeq220^{circ}-240^{circ}$, $120^{circ}-140^{circ}$ for $theta_{23}=42.3^{circ}$ for normal mass ordering, and $delta_{CP}simeq283^{circ},250^{circ},100^{circ},70^{circ}$ for $theta_{23}=49.5^{circ}$ for inverted one.
