We computed the $\Sigma^{-}\to n\pi^+e^-\ell^-$ ($\ell=e,\mu$), $\Xi^-\to \Lambda\pi^+e^-e^-$, and $\Lambda\to p\pi^+e^-e^-$ lepton number violating (LNV) hyperon decays mediated by a resonant Majorana neutrino. The expected hyperon…

We calculate one-loop corrections to the decays of the next-to-lightest neutralino $\tilde{\chi}_2^0$ into the lightest neutralino $\tilde{\chi}_1^0$ and two leptons; this includes diagrams where a real photon is emitted. In cases where…

The analysis of $1/m_Q^2$ corrections of the previous paper is extended to the semileptonic decays of heavy baryons. We focus on the simplest case, the ground state $\Lambda_Q$ baryons, in which the light degrees of freedom are in a state…

$O(\alpha_s)$ 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…

We begin to analyze and contrast the predictions for the decay $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ in the Left-Right Symmetric Model(LRM) with those of the Standard Model(SM). In particular, we show that the forward-backward asymmetry of the lepton…

We study logarithmically enhanced electromagnetic corrections to the decay rate in the high dilepton invariant mass region as well as corrections to the forward backward asymmetry (FBA) of the inclusive rare decay $\bar{B} \to X_s \ell^+…

We analyze the baryonic semilepton decay $\Lambda_{b} \rightarrow$ $\Lambda \mu^{+} \mu^{-}$ in the scalar leptoquark models with $X(3,2,7/6)$ and $X(3,2,1/6)$ states, respectively. We also discuss the effects of this two NP models on some…

The ongoing searches for Higgs-boson signals in data taken at the CERN LHC and the Fermilab Tevatron crucially rely on the decay channels H -> Z l l and H -> W l nu. We present a precision study of the partial widths of these decay channels…

In this article, we assume the two nonets of scalar mesons below and above 1 GeV are all $\bar{q}q$ states, and study the semi-leptonic decays $B\to S\ell^-\bar{\nu}_{\ell}$, $B\to S\ell^+\ell^-$ and $B\to S\bar{\nu}\nu$ both in the…

We sketch a novel method to search for light di-leptonic resonances by exploiting precision measurements of Drell-Yan production. Motivated by the recent hints of lepton flavour universality violation in $B \to K^{\ast} \ell^+ \ell^-$, we…

We calculate the predicted width for the radiative decay of a $1^{++}$ heavy meson via the channel $1^{++} \to 1^{--} +\gamma$ in the covariant light-front quark model. Specifically, we compute the decay widths for $\chi_{c1}(1P) \to J/\psi…
