Abstract

In this talk, I first discuss bdb\to d, bsb\to s and sds\to d transitions including time-dependent CP asymmetries in BdϕKsB_d \to \phi K_s and Re (ϵ/ϵK\epsilon^{'}/\epsilon_K). Then I show that the decay Bsμ+μB_s \to \mu^+ \mu^- is useful to distinguish various SUSY breaking mechanisms. I will also describe some possible connections between B physics and cosmology: (i) B physics and electroweak baryogenesis within SUSY models, and (ii) the correlation between the neutralino dark matter scattering and B(Bsμ+μ)B (B_s \to \mu^+ \mu^-). In particular, we point out that the current upper bound on B(Bsμ+μ)B (B_s \to \mu^+ \mu^-) form CDF and D0 collaborations can constrain the spin-independent neutralino scattering cross section more strongly than the CDMS bound.
