We report measurements of the decays B- -> Ds(*)+ K- l- nubar in a data sample containing 657x10^6 BBbar pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+e- collider. We observe a signal with a significance of 6 sigma…

The implications of the family non-universal $Z^\prime$ model in the $B\to K_{1}(1270,1400)\ell^{+}\ell^{-}(\ell=e\,,\mu\,,\tau)$ decays are explored, where the mass eigenstates $K_{1}(1270,1400)$ are the mixtures of $^{1}{P}_{1}$ and…
We model-independently analyze the angular distributions of B -> K ll decays, l = e, mu, for low dilepton mass using QCD factorization. Besides the decay rate, we study the forward-backward asymmetry A_FB^l and a further observable, F_H^l,…
We use momentum correlations as physical observables in $B\to K^{*}l^{+}l^{-}$ decays with $K^{*}$ polarized to study the long distance contributions. We show that these observables are sensitive to the scenarios of the long distance…
The rare decays B_s -> \mu^+\mu^- and B -> K^{(*)}\mu^+\mu^- are sensitive to new particles and couplings via their interferences with the standard model contributions. Recently, the upper bound on B(B_s -> \mu^+\mu^-) has been improved…
