The ECFA Early-Career Researchers Panel: Report for the year 2023

The European Committee for Future Accelerators (ECFA) Early-Career Researcher (ECR) panel, which represents the interests of the ECR community to ECFA, presents in this document its initiatives and activities in the year 2023. This report summarises the process of the first big turnover in the panel composition at the start of 2023 and reports on the activities of the active working groups - either pursued from before or newly established. The overarching goal of the ECFA-ECR panel is to better understand and support the diverse interests of early-career researchers in the ECFA community and beyond.

Flavor violating Higgs and $Z$ decays at FCC-ee

Recent advances in $b$, $c$, and $s$ quark tagging coupled with novel statistical analysis techniques will allow future high energy and high statistics electron-positron colliders, such as the FCC-ee, to place phenomenologically relevant bounds on flavor violating Higgs and $Z$ decays to quarks. We assess the FCC-ee reach for $Z/h\to bs, cu$ decays as a function of jet tagging performance. We also update the SM predictions for the corresponding branching ratios, as well as the indirect constraints on the flavor violating Higgs and $Z$ couplings to quarks. Using type III two Higgs doublet model as an example of beyond the standard model physics, we show that the searches for $h\to bs, cu$ decays at FCC-ee can probe new parameter space not excluded by indirect searches. We also reinterpret the FCC-ee reach for $Z\to bs , cu$ in terms of the constraints on models with vectorlike quarks.

Third-Family Lepton-Quark Fusion

We analyze the signatures of new physics scenarios featuring third-family quark-lepton unification at the TeV scale in lepton-quark fusion at hadron colliders. Working with complete UV dynamics based on the $SU(4)$ gauge symmetry in the third-family fermions, we simulate the resonant production of a vector leptoquark at the next-to-leading order, including its decay and matching to the parton showers. The precise theoretical control over this production channel allows us to set robust bounds on the vector leptoquark parameter space which are complementary to the other production channels at colliders. We emphasize the importance of the resonant channel in future searches and discuss the impact of variations in the model space depending on the flavor structure of the vector leptoquark couplings.

Correlating New Physics Effects in Semileptonic $ΔC = 1$ and $ΔS = 1$ Processes

We present constraints on the left-handed dimension-6 interactions that contribute to semileptonic and leptonic decays of $K$, $D$, pions and to nuclear beta decay. We employ the flavour covariant description of the effective couplings, identify universal CP phases of New Physics and derive constraints from decay rates and CP-odd quantities. As a result, we can predict the maximal effects of such flavoured NP in $D$ decays from stringent $K$ decay constraints and vice-versa.
