We study the rare semileptonic and radiative leptonic B_s decays in the universal extra dimension model. In this scenario, with a single extra dimension, there exists only one new parameter beyond those of the standard model, which is the…
Disentangling New Physics effects from the Standard Model requires a good understanding of all pieces that stem from the latter, especially the uncertainties that might plague the theoretical estimations within the Standard Model. In the…
To shed light on the indirect search for new physics beyond the standard model, the long standing discrepancies between the theory and experiment mediated by FCNC $b\to s \ell \ell$ quark level transitions set an ideal testing ground.…
A wealth of data on hadronic b -> s transitions is available from the B-factories and will be improved at the LHCb experiment and possible future super-B-factories. I review the theory of these decays as it pertains to the search for…
A few $B_{d,s}$ and $\Lambda_b$ decays induced by $b \to s$ transition are studied in the Standard Model and in the framework of the Appelquist, Cheng and Dobrescu (ACD) model, which is a New Physics scenario where a single universal extra…
We present results of global fits of all relevant experimental data on rare $b \to s$ decays. We observe significant tensions between the Standard Model predictions and the data. After critically reviewing the possible sources of…
We study a set of exclusive $B$ and $B_s$ decay modes induced by the rare $b \to s \nu \bar \nu$ transition in the RS$_c$ model, an extra-dimensional extension of the standard model with warped 5D metric and extended gauge group. We…
Measurements from the LHCb experiment and $B$ factories have revealed several discrepancies in angular observables of rare semileptonic $B$ decays involving the quark-level transition $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$. In this work, we conduct a…
The di-leptons and di-neutrinos observed in the final states of flavor-changing neutral b decays provide an ideal platform for probing physics beyond the standard model. Although the latest measurements of $R_{K^{(*)}}$ agree well with the…
$B_s - \bar B_s$ mixing has been measured recently by D0 and CDF. The range predicted in the standard model is consistent with data. However, the standard model central values for $\Delta M_{B_s}$ and also $\Delta M_ {B_d}$ are away from…
The rare $b \to s \ell^+\ell^-$ transition is a well-explored transition, particularly for new physics beyond the standard model. Similar to this transition, another flavor changing neutral current transition $b \to s \nu\bar{\nu}$…
The New Physics sensitivity of the s ---> d gamma transition and its accessibility through hadronic processes are thoroughly investigated. Firstly, the Standard Model predictions for the direct CP-violating observables in radiative K decays…
We investigate the rare baryonic ${\Lambda}_b\rightarrow{\Lambda}l^+ l^-$ decays in a non-universal $Z'$ model, which is one of the well-motivated extensions of the standard model (SM). Considering the effects of $Z'$-mediated…
Exclusive rare $B \to K^{(*)} \ell^+ \ell^-$, $B \to K^{(*)} \nu \bar \nu$ and $B \to K^* \gamma$ decays are studied within the Applequist-Cheng-Dobrescu model, an extension of the Standard Model in presence of universal extra dimensions.…
We study exclusive $B_s$ decays to final states with $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$, induced by the rare $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ and $b \to s \nu \bar \nu$ transitions. Differential decay rates and total branching fractions are predicted in the…
We examine in detail the semi-leptonic decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c \tau{\bar \nu}_{\tau}$, which may confirm previous hints, from the analogous $B$ decay, of a new physics beyond the standard model. First of all, starting from rather…
We study the impact of including the baryonic decay $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda(\to p \pi^-)\mu^+\mu^-$ in a Bayesian analysis of $|\Delta B | = |\Delta S| = 1$ transitions. We perform fits of the Wilson coefficients $C_{9}$, $C_{9'}$, $C_{10}$…
We study the effect of the FCNC on rare $B$ decays in the beyond standard model with vector like singlet quarks. It has been shown that $b \rightarrow s \gamma $ does not receive sizable contribution compared with that of the standard model…
