Rare decays mediated by $b \to s \nu \bar \nu$ transitions have been reported by the Belle II experiment. The branching ratio of the decay $B^+ \to K^+ \nu \bar \nu$ is found to be enhanced with respect to the standard model value. If taken…
In the framework of the Standard Model we present new theoretical predictions for the branching ratios, double and single differential distributions and forward -- backward leptonic asymmetries for the $\bar B_s \to \mu^+ \mu^- e^+ e^-$…
We present branching fraction measurements of the decays B^{+} -> a1(1260)^{+} K^{0} and B^{0} to a1(1260)^{-} K^{+} with a1(1260)^{+} -> pi^{-} pi^{+} pi^{+}. The data sample corresponds to 383 million B B-bar pairs produced in e^{+}e^{-}…
We investigate the influence of the universal extra dimension on the branching ratio in the $B \to \pi(\rho) \ell^+ \ell^-$ decay. Taking $1/R\sim \{200-1000\}$GeV with one universal extra spatial dimension, which is consistent with the…
We report a study of the decay $D^0 \rightarrow \bar{K}^0\pi^-e^+\nu_{e}$ based on a sample of $2.93~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ $e^+e^-$ annihilation data collected at the center-of-mass energy of 3.773~GeV with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII…
Weak radiative baryonic B decays $\bar B\to B_1\bar B_2\gamma$ mediated by the electromagnetic penguin process $b\to s\gamma$ are re-examined within the framework of the pole model. The meson pole contribution that has been neglected before…
We report first observations of the decays B- to Ds(*)+ K- pi-, using 292 fb^-1 of data collected at Upsilon(4S) resonance energy by the BaBar detector at the PEP II e+ e- collider. The branching fractions are measured to be B(B- to Ds+ K-…
We study the effects of the fourth generation of quarks on the total branching ratio and the lepton polarizations in $\bar{B}_{0}\rightarrow K_{0}^{\ast}(1430)l^{+}l^{-}$($l$ = $\mu $, $\tau $) decay. Taking fourth generation quark mass…
The effects of the peculiar CP conserving phases in unparticle propagators are explored. We find that the phases have a great impact on CP-violation. We adopt the decays $B_{d}\to \pi^{+} \pi^{-}$ and $B_{d}\to \ell^{-}\ell^{+}$ as the…
I am concerned in these lectures with the breakdown of the particle concept in strongly correlated electron matter. I first show that the standard procedure for counting particles, namely Luttinger's theorem, breaks down anytime pole-like…
Using a nonrelativistic constituent quark model in which the degrees of freedom are quark-antiquark and meson-meson components, we have recently shown that the $D^{(\ast)}K$ thresholds play an important role in lowering the mass of the…
Detailed information on decay channel probabilities is absent for many high mass resonances, which are typically included in thermal models. In these cases, the sum over all known decay branching probabilities is smaller than 1. Due to this…
We present the results of a search for $B^{+}\to\gamma \ell^{+}\nu_{\ell}$, where $\ell = e, \mu$. We use a sample of 232 million $B\bar{B}$ pairs recorded at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II $B$ Factory. We measure…
We have just entered an era of precision measurements for $B_s$-decay observables. A characteristic feature of the $B_s$-meson system is $B^0_s$--$\bar B^0_s$ mixing, which exhibits a sizable decay width difference. The latter feature leads…
Theoretical predictions for inclusive semileptonic B decay rates are rewritten in terms of the Upsilon(1S) meson mass instead of the b quark mass, using a modified perturbation expansion. This method gives theoretically consistent and…
We present measurements of branching fractions and charge asymmetries in $B$-meson decays to $\rho^+ \pi^{0}$, $\rho^{0}\pi^+$ and $\rho^0\pi^0$. The data sample comprises $89 \times 10^6$ $\Upsilon(4S) \to B\bar{B}$ decays collected with…
We examine the exclusive rare decays of $B \to K_{0}^*(1430)\ell\bar{\ell} $ with $K_{0}^*(1430)$ being the p-wave scalar meson and $\ell=\nu,e,\mu,\tau$ in the standard model. The form factors for the $B\to K_{0}^{*}$ transition matrix…
The apparent gap between the measured and the expected value for the semileptonic branching ratio of $B$ mesons has become more serious over the last year. This is due to the improved quality of the data and to the increasing maturity of…
