Chapter4 4 4. Flavor Physics and Charged Particle

Abstract We have new charged particles in many scenarios of physics beyond the Standard Model where these particles are sometimes motivated to explain experimental anomalies. Furthermore, such new charged particles are important target at the collider experiments such as the Large Hadron Collider in searching for a signature of new physics. If these new particles interact with known particles in the Standard Model, they would induce interesting phenomenology of flavor physics in both lepton and quark sectors. Then, we review some candidate of new charged particles and its applications to flavor physics. In particular, vector-like lepton and leptoquarks are discussed for lepton flavor physics and B-meson physics.
