The weak form factor for $B\to K_{1B}$ where $K_{1B}$ is the $^1P_1$ state is calculated in the light-cone sum rules (LCSR). Combining the quark model result for the form factor of $B\to K_{1A}$ with $K_{1A}$ being the $^3P_1$ state, we…

We use three-point QCD sum rules to calculate the form factors governing the rare exclusive decays B \to (K,K^*) \ell^+ \ell^-, B \to (K,K^*) \nu \bar\nu. We predict the branching ratios, the invariant mass distributions of the lepton pair…
We investigate the radiative B_c -> rho^+ gamma and B_c -> K^{*+} gamma decays in the standard model. The transition form factors are calculated in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules method. We estimate the branching ratios of…
The b --> s gamma transition proceeds by a loop ``penguin'' diagram. It may be used to measure precisely the couplings of the top quark and to search for the effects of any new particles appearing in the loop. We present a preliminary…
We reinvestigate the leading QCD corrections to the radiative decay $b \to s \gamma for supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model. Although the major contributions to the corrections originate from the running of the effective…

We calculate the main observables in $B_{u,d}\to (\rho,\omega,K^*)\gamma$ and $B_s\to (\bar K^*,\phi)\gamma$ decays, i.e. branching ratios and CP and isospin asymmetries. We include QCD factorisation results and also the dominant…
We study the branching ratios, the direct CP asymmetries in $B\to K^{(*)}\bar{K}^{(*)}$ decays and the polarization fractions of $B\to K^{*}\bar{K}^{*}$ decays by employing the QCD factorization in the minimal supersymmetric standard model…
The inclusive radiative $B$-decay is a sensitive probe of new physics, especially if related to the virtual exchange of a charged Higgs boson. Supersymmetric models provide a particularly interesting example. In the limit of exact…
We compute the branching ratios for the radiative rare decays of B into K-Meson states and compare them to the experimentally determined branching ratio for inclusive decay b -> s gamma using non relativistic quark model, and form factor…
The decay $B^{\pm}\to DK^{\pm}$ followed by the subsequent decay of the $D$ meson into final states involving a neutral kaon can be used to determine the CKM angle $\gamma$. We study CP violation effects due to mixing and decay of the final…
The complete calculation of the lowest order short-distance contributions to the $B_{s}\to\gamma\gamma$ decay in the SM are presented. The amplitude and branching ratio are calculated.
Combining our results for various O(alpha_s^2) corrections to the weak radiative B-meson decay, we are able to present the first estimate of the branching ratio at the next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD. We find BR(B -> X_s gamma) = (3.15…
Within the standard model, we calculate the radiative $B\rightarrow K^{\star}\gamma$ decay rate based on a Bethe-Salpeter description for the meson wave functions and the hadronic matrix elements. With a reasonable choice of parameters the…

In $B \to X_s \gamma $ there are perturbative $QCD$ corrections at order $\alpha_s$ not only to the single quark line process $ b \to s \gamma$ but also coming from a set of diagrams where the weak interaction vertex involves a gluon which…
We review the perturbative QCD formalism for exclusive heavy meson decays, concentrating on the three-scale factorization theorem for nonleptonic processes. The formalism is then extended to the radiative decay $B\to K^*\gamma$, which…
