Knowing the mass of the b-quark is essential to the study of the structure and decays of B mesons as well as to future tests of the Higgs mechanism of mass generation. We present recent preliminary measurements of the b-quark mass and…

The Belle and Belle II experiments have collected a 1.3 ab$^{-1}$ sample of $e^+e^-\to B\bar B$ collisions at $\Upsilon(4S)$ centre-of-mass energy. This is ideal environment to search for rare electroweak penguin $B$ decays and notably…
In the Standard Model (SM) charmless hadronic decays $B_s^0 \rightarrow \eta^\prime \eta$ proceed via tree-level $b\to u$ and penguin $b\to s$ transitions. Penguin transitions are sensitive to Beyond-the-Standard-Model (BSM) physics…
We search for the radiative penguin decays B_s to phi gamma and B_s to gamma gamma in a 23.6 fb-1 data sample collected at the Upsilon(5S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- asymmetric-energy collider. We observe for the…
Asymmetric e^+e^- colliders running on the \Upsilon(4S) (B factories) will much more readily measure CP-violating asymmetries in the decays of B_d^0 and B^\pm mesons than in the decays of B_s^0 mesons. As such, they will seemingly not be…

We present the results of searches for rare B meson decays. The measurements use all or part of a data sample of about 88 million $\Upsilon(4S)\to B{\bar B}$ decays collected between 1999 and 2002 with the \babar detector at the PEP-II…
b to s transitions are flavour-changing neutral current (FCNC) processes that play an important role in the search for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). Contributions from virtual particles in the loop are predicted to deviate…
