We study the decay B --> K l^+ l^- for l = e,mu,tau with a softly recoiling kaon, that is, for high dilepton invariant masses sqrt{q^2} of the order of the b-quark mass. This kinematic region can be treated within an operator product…
Rare decays of K mesons are reviewed from the perspective of testing the ``ones'' and ``zeros'' of the standard model. Decays K^+ -> pi^+ nu anti-nu and K_L -> pi^0 nu anti-nu probe the one-loop effective Hamiltonian for s -> d nu anti-nu,…
We study, at the one loop level, the dominant contributions from a single universal extra dimension to the process (Z\to b\bar{b}). By resorting to the gaugeless limit of the theory we explain why the result is expected to display a strong…
We study the forward-backward asymmetries in the decays of $K^+\to\pi^+\ell^+ \ell^-$ ($\ell=e$ and $\mu$) in the presence of scalar or tensor terms. We find that with the scalar (tensor) type interaction the asymmetry can be up to ${\cal…
In the framework of SU(2) singlet down type vectorlike quark model, we present a comprehensive analysis for decays B-> X_s \gamma, B->X_sl^+l^- and B-> K\pi. As for B-> X_s\gamma, we include the QCD running from the mass of the down-type…

We propose to use T-odd momentum correlations as physical observables to study T violation in $B\to K^{*}l^{+}l^{-} (l=e,\mu)$ decays. We show that these observables are zero in the standard model but sizable at the level of 10% in the…
The mass eigen states $K_1(1270)$ and $K_1(1400)$ are mixture of the strange members of two axial-vector SU(3) octet, $^3P_1(K_1^A)$ and $^1P_1(K_1^B)$. Taking into account this mixture, the forward-backward asymmetry and branching ratio of…
