We calculate the contributions of the Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes to the K_L-K_S mass difference \Delta M_K, the parameter \epsilon_K, the B^0_{d,s}-\bar B^0_{d,s} mixing mass differences \Delta M_{d,s} and rare decays K^+\to \pi^+\nu\bar\nu,…
$O(\alpha_s)$ QCD corrections to the inclusive $B \to X_s e^+ e^-$ decay are investigated within the two - Higgs doublet extension of the standard model (2HDM). The analysis is performed in the so - called off-resonance region; the…
The most precise comparison between theory and experiment for the B -> Xs l+ l- rate is in the low q^2 region, but the hadronic uncertainties associated with an experimentally required cut on m_X potentially spoil the search for new physics…
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…
We present the results of the O(alpha_s) two-loop virtual corrections to the differential decay width dGamma(B -> X_s l+ l-)/ds, where s is the invariant mass squared of the lepton pair. Those contributions from gluon bremsstrahlung which…
Recent measurements by the Belle II Collaboration report a branching ratio for the decay $B^+\to K^+ \nu \bar{\nu}$ with a 3.5$\sigma$ significance and deviating by 2.7$\sigma$ from Standard Model expectation. In this article, we interpret…
We report on recent theoretical progress in radiative B decays. We focus on a calculation of logarithmically enhanced QED corrections to the branching ratio and forward-backward asymmetry in the inclusive rare decay anti-B --> X(s) l+ l-,…

Models with an orbifolded universal extra dimension receive important loop-induced corrections to the masses and couplings of Kaluza-Klein (KK) particles. The dominant contributions stem from so-called boundary terms which violate KK…
We calculate the contributions of the Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes to the gamma-penguins, gluon-penguins, gamma-magnetic penguins and chromomagnetic penguins in the Appelquist, Cheng and Dobrescu (ACD) model with one universal extra dimension.…
We show bounds on five- and six-dimensional universal extra dimension (UED) models from the latest results of the Higgs searches at the LHC and from the electroweak precision data for the S and T parameters. We consider the minimal UED…
We study, at the one loop level, the dominant new physics contributions from extra dimensions to Z -> b,b(bar), as well as B-B(bar) and K-K(bar) mixing. We use a model with one extra dimension containing fermions which live in four…
We analyze the exclusive rare $B \to K^{(*)} \ell^+ \ell^-$, $B \to K^{(*)} \nu \bar \nu$ and $B \to K^* \gamma$ decays in the Applequist-Cheng-Dobrescu model, an extension of the Standard Model in presence of universal extra dimensions. In…
The flavor-changing electromagnetic dipole operator O_7 gives the dominant contribution to the B -> Xs gamma decay rate. We calculate two-loop QCD corrections to its matrix element together with the corresponding bremsstrahlung…
Effects of universal extra dimensions on Standard Model observables first arise at the one-loop level. The quantization of this class of theories is therefore essential in order to perform predictions. A comprehensive study of the Standard…
Kaluza-Klein fields characterizing, from a four-dimensional viewpoint, the presence of compact universal extra dimensions would alter low-energy observables through effects determined by some compactification scale, $R^{-1}$, since the…
We study the power law running of gauge, Yukawa and quartic scalar couplings in the universal extra dimension scenario where the extra dimension is accessed by all the standard model fields. After compactifying on an $S_1 /Z_2$ orbifold, we…
We reconsider the constraints on Universal Extra Dimensions (UED) models arising from precision electroweak data. We take into account the subleading contributions from new physics (expressed in terms of the X,Y ... variables), as well as…
Universal extra dimensions, presumably observable at some high-energy scale, would modify low-energy observables, being particularly relevant for physical processes forbidden at tree level by the Standard Model. We address the Kaluza-Klein…
