In this report we discuss the main theories to understand the origin of baryon and lepton number violation in physics beyond the Standard Model. We present the theoretical predictions for rare processes such as neutrinoless double beta decay, proton decay, and neutron-antineutron oscillation, and overview the prospects to discover these rare processes in the near future. The possibility to observe baryon and lepton violating signatures at current and future colliders and through precision studies of other rare processes, and the testability of different baryogenesis mechanisms is discussed in detail. A healthy and broad experimental program looking for proton decay, neutrinoless double beta decay and neutron-antineutron oscillations is essential to make new discoveries in this field. These searches are carried out at various experimental facilities in the US and abroad, and use instrumentation arching across traditional HEP/NP boundaries. In addition, experiments such as those at the Large Hadron Collider could discover exotic baryon and/or lepton number violating signatures connected to low energy scale theories for neutrino masses, supersymmetric models with R-parity violation, new gauge theories or other mechanisms for physics beyond the Standard Model. The landscape presented in this report could be crucial to discover the underlying mechanism for neutrino masses and the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the universe.

  1. Matter Unification and Lepton Flavour Violation

    hep-ph 2026-03 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Muon-to-electron conversion at Mu2e can probe quark–lepton unification scales up to ~10^4 TeV in the minimal SU(4)_C×SU(2)_L×U(1)_R model, even where rare kaon decays are suppressed by unknown mixing angles.

  2. Correlating $A \to \gamma\gamma$ with electric dipole moments in the two Higgs doublet model in light of the diphoton excesses at 95 GeV and 152 GeV

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The CP-odd scalar A in the flavor-aligned CP-violating 2HDM can explain the diphoton excesses at 95 and 152 GeV only in tuned regions that survive the electron EDM bound and predict measurable neutron and proton EDMs.

  3. Nucleon Decays into Light New Particles in Neutrino Detectors

    hep-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    Nucleon decays into light new particles can hide from water-Cherenkov detectors when the charged partner is slow, while Earth-born fluxes of the decay products could be visible in existing underground detectors.

    nucl-ex 2024-12 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    With the full Majorana Demonstrator data set, new 90% confidence partial lifetime limits are set for tri-nucleon and dinucleon decays in germanium isotopes, with the strongest limits of 1.83 x 10^26 years for two spec...

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    For a Majorana fermion coupled to quarks via a dimension-six vector-vector operator, the observed baryon asymmetry can be reproduced across a wide mass range, with scattering processes dominating and with testable neu...
