The one-loop contributions to the flavor-changing neutral current decays of the top quark into a light quark and a gauge boson or Higgs boson, namely $t\rightarrow qV,qh$, with $q$ being $u$ or $c$, and $V$ being $\gamma$, $g$, or $Z$, are…

We study the dominant decays of the lightest Higgs boson in models with 2 and 3 Higgs doublets, for the case when its couplings to fermions are absent at tree-level. It is found that the branching ratio for the decay $H\to \gamma\gamma$ is…

Within the QCD factorization approach, we calculate the branching fractions and $CP$ asymmetry parameters of 12 $B \to K_0^*(1430)K^{(*)}$ decay modes under the assumption that the scalar meson $K_0^*(1430)$ is the first excited state or…

The $\bar{B}_s^0 \to D_s^{(*)+} l^- \bar{\nu}_l$ semileptonic decays were calculated in the framework of the standard model (SM) by employing the perturbative QCD (pQCD) factorization approach. We defined four ratios of the branching ratios…

Motivated by the recent measurement of the upper limit of ${B}^0 \to J/\psi D$ branching ratio, which is important in accounting for the soft $J/\psi$ production in B decays, we investigate ${B}^0 \to J/\psi D^{(\star)}$ and $\eta_c…

We study $B_{s}\to KK$ decays in the framework of the PQCD. We show that the branching ratios of $B_{s}\to (K^+ K^-, K^0 \bar{K}^0)$ are about $(22.43, 25.78) \times 10^{-6}$ for $\phi_{3}(\gamma)\simeq72^0$, which are consistent with the…

We compute the branching fraction of the decays $B \to K \nu \bar\nu$ and $B \to K^* \nu \bar\nu$ in the Standard Model. We also comment on the experimental difficulties and procedures to detect such modes at B factories.

A measurement of the branching fraction of the decay $B_s^0 \to K_S^0 K_S^0$ is performed using proton-proton collision data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5 $fb^{-1}$ collected by the LHCb experiment between 2011 and 2016.…

The inclusive semileptonic branching ratio is often employed to normalize other inclusive B decays. Using recent determinations of the non-perturbative parameters of the Operator Product Expansion we compute the normalization factor for the…

In this talk I give a theoretical overview of the rare decays $B_{s} \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $B_{d} \to \mu^+ \mu^-$. The branching ratios of these decays are promising probes of New Physics, both independently and relative to each other.…

The exclusive decay modes $B \to K \gamma\gamma$ and $B_s \to \eta (\eta') \gamma\gamma$ are shown to have significant branching ratios of approximately $0.5\times 10^{-7}$. This first calculation of these modes employs a model based on a…
