We point out that the right-handed squark mixings can sizably enhance SUSY contributions to Delta M_s by taking into account renormalization group effects via the CKM matrix. The recent result of Delta M_s from the D0 experiment at the…
We study some rare decays of $B_s$ meson governed by the quark level transitions $ b \to s$, in the fourth generation model popularly known as SM4. Recently it has been shown that SM4, which is a simple extension of the SM3, can…
Considering the MSSM with the CKM matrix as the only source of flavour violation and heavy supersymmetric particles at large $\tan\beta$, we analyze the correlation between {\it the increase} of the rates of the decays $B^0_{s,d}\to…
The recently reported measurements of the CP asymmetry a(psi K) by the BABAR and BELLE collaborations are in good agreement with the standard model (SM) prediction, resulting from the unitarity of the CKM matrix. The so-called minimal…
Rare decays of the $B$ meson are sensitive to new physics effects. Several experimental results on these decays have been difficult to understand within the standard model (SM) though more precise measurements and a better understanding of…
We study a minimal flavor violating extension of the MSSM, where higher dimensional operators in the Kahler potential induce tree level non-holomorphic Higgs couplings that are controlled by the scale of the physics beyond the MSSM, and…
Studies of angular and time distributions and CP-violating observables in $B_s\to J/\psi \phi$ decays yield a space of parameters which can be considerably reduced if relative strong phases among different amplitudes are specified. We show…
In the quark-flavor mixing scheme, $\eta$ and $\eta'$ are linear combinations of flavor states $\eta_{q}=(u\bar{u}+d\bar{d})/\sqrt{2}$ and $\eta_{s}=s\bar{s}$ with the masses of $m_{qq}$ and $m_{ss}$, respectively. Phenomenologically,…

It is pointed out that if a flavor symmetry (a discrete symmetry, a U(1) symmetry, and so on) exists, we cannot obtain the observed CKM quark mixing matrix V_q and MNS lepton mixing matrix U_\ell, even if we can obtain reasonable mass…
I point out that $B \to X_q \l^+ \l^-$ decays $(q = s, d)$ are sensitive probes of possible violation of CKM unitarity. I compute the decay rates and asymmetries in a minimal extension of the Standard Model containing an additional…
Supersymmetry broken geometrically in extra dimensions naturally leads to a nearly degenerate spectrum for superparticles, ameliorating the bounds from the current searches at the LHC. We present a minimal such model with a single extra…
We perform an analysis on ${B^0} - {{\bar B}^0}$ mixing in the extension of the minimal supersymmetric standard model where baryon and lepton numbers are local gauge symmetries (BLMSSM) by using the effective Hamiltonian method. And the…
We analyze nonleptonic $B_s$ decays to a charmonium state and a light meson, induced by the $b \to c {\bar c}s$ transition, which are useful to access the $B_s$-${\bar B}_s$ mixing phase $\beta_s$. We use generalized factorization and…

We study the consequences of the large dimuon asymmetry observed at D0. Physics beyond the standard model (SM) in $B_s-\bar B_s$ mixing is required to explain the data. We first present a detailed analysis for model independent constraints…
We analyze the deviations of the mixing induced CP asymmetry in B-->phi Ks from sin(2beta), as well as the deviations of the asymmetries in Bs-->K*K*, Bs-->phi K* and Bs-->phi phi from sin(2beta_s), that arise in SM due to penguin…
Using the hadronic matrix elements from the lattice, B_K and xi_s, involving only the 4-quark operators for Delta flavor (F) = 2 Hamiltonian relevant for K, B_d and B_s mixing, along with V_cb, we deduce a non-trivial constraint on the SM,…
We consider the effects of a non-vanishing strange-quark mass in the determination of the full basis of dimension six matrix elements for $B_{s}$ mixing, in particular we get for the ratio of the $V-A$ Bag parameter in the $B_s$ and $B_d$…
We present a reanalysis of the allowed region in the $\rho - \eta \,$ plane of the CKM matrix, which follows from our present knowledge of the theoretical and experimental parameters associated with quark mixing and CP violation. Besides…
