In a five-dimensional model with one Universal Extra Dimension (UED), signals for a pair of n = 1 Kaluza-Klein excitations could be easily observed at a future e+ e- collider if the process in question is kinematically allowed. However,…
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…
Universal Extra Dimension (UED) model is one of the popular extension of the Standard Model (SM) which offers interesting phenomenology. In the minimal UED (mUED) model, Kaluza-Klein (KK) parity conservation ensures that $n=1$ KK states can…

We investigate the exclusive rare $B_c\to D_{(s)}\nu_{\ell}\bar{\nu_{\ell}}$ and $B\to D_{(s)}\ell^+\ell^-$ ($\ell=e,\mu,\tau$) decays within the standard model and the light-front quark model constrained by the variational principle for…
We report the first observation of the exclusive decays \bar B\to D^{(*)}K^{*-}, using 9.66 x 10^{6} B\bar{B} pairs collected at the \Upsilon(4S) with the CLEO detector. We measure the following branching fractions: {\cal B}(B^- -> D^0…
We point out that in inclusive B -> Xs l+ l- decay an angular decomposition provides a third (q^2 dependent) observable sensitive to a different combination of Wilson coefficients than the rate and the forward-backward asymmetry. Since a…
In the limit of flavor SU(3) symmetry, the amplitudes for Bd->pi^+\pi^- and Bs-> K^+ K^- are related to one another. Taking the values of the weak phases beta and gamma from independent measurements, the ratio Rds=BR(Bs->…
The exclusive semileptonic $B\to K_{1}(1270) \ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ ($\ell=\mu , \tau$) decays are analyzed in variants of two Higgs double models (THDMs). The mass eigenstates $K_{1}(1270)$ and $K_{1}(1400)$ are the mixture of two axial-vector…
Using the related form factors from full QCD which recently are available, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the $\Lambda_b \rightarrow \Lambda \ell^+ \ell^-$ transition in universal extra dimension model in the presence of a single…
We explore the collider phenomenology of the fat-brane realization of the Minimal Universal Extra Dimension (mUED) model, where Standard Model (SM) fields propagate in a small extra dimension while gravity accesses additional large extra…
We determine the CKM matrix element |Vcb| using a sample of 3.33 million BBbar events in the CLEO detector at CESR. We determine the yield of reconstructed B --> D*+ l nu decays as a function of w = v_B . v_D*, and from this we obtain the…
We report on the current status of non-minimal universal extra dimension (UED) models. Our emphasis is on the possible extension of the minimal UED model by allowing bulk masses and boundary localized terms. We take into account the data…
Using 214 fb-1 of data recorded by the Babar detector at the PEPII electron-positron collider, we study the decay Ds+ --> K+ K- e+ nu. Except for a small S-wave contribution, the events with K+K- masses in the range 1.01-1.03 GeV/c2…
We briefly review the status of rare radiative and semileptonic $b \to s (\gamma, \ell^+ \ell^-)$, ($\ell=e,\mu$) decays. We discuss possible signatures of new physics in these modes and emphazise the role of the exclusive channels. In…
We examine the possibility for precise determination of |V_{ts}| (and |V_{td}/V_{ts}|) from the exclusive decays, $B --> K \ell^+ \ell^-, B --> K^* \ell^+ \ell^-$ (and $B --> \pi \ell^+ \ell^-, B --> \rho \ell^+ \ell^-$). We show that the…
We present a study of the decays B^{+-} --> D K^{+-} with D mesons reconstructed in the K+pi-pi0 or K-pi+pi0 final states, where D indicates a D0 or a anti-D0 meson. Using a sample of 474 million BBbar pairs collected with the BaBar…
