In this work, we investigate the time-dependent angular analysis of $B_s^0 \rightarrow \phi \phi$ decay to search for new physics signals via CP-violating observables. We work with a new physics Hamiltonian containing both left- and…
In a large class of models, the only significant new physics effect on the CP asymmetries in $B \to \psi K_S$ and $B \to \pi\pi$ decays is a new contribution to the $B-\bar B$ mixing amplitude. This allows a model independent construction…
I discuss three B physics results with potential for exhibiting new flavour-changing interactions: (1) the time-dependent CP asymmetry in B\to J/\psi K_S decay; (2) branching fractions and CP asymmetries in B\to \pi\pi, \pi K decays; (3)…
Recent experiments suggest that certain data of $B \to \pi\pi,\pi K$ decays are inconsistent with the standard model expectations. We try to explain the discrepancies with R-parity violating suppersymmetry. By employing the QCD…
We discuss possible New Physics (NP) effects on the processes $\gamma\gamma \to W^+W^-$, $ZZ$, $Z\gamma$, $\gamma\gamma$, $HH$ which are observable in $\gamma\gamma$ collisions. Such collisions may be achieved through laser backscattering…
This talk addresses two topics related to CP asymmetries in $D$ meson decays to two pseudoscalar mesons. First I discuss how new physics can be distinguished from the Standard Model through two sum rules relating three direct CP asymmetries…
We re-examine CP violation in the Delta S = 0 decays tau -> N pi nu_tau (N=2,3,4). We assume that the new physics (NP) is a charged Higgs. We show that there is no NP contribution to tau -> pi pi nu_tau, which means that no CP violation is…
Using the general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian, the general expressions of the longitudinal, normal and transversal polarization asymmetries for (l^-) and (l^+) and combinations of them for the exclusive (B -> K l^+…
We propose to perform a combined analysis of $B \to \pi\pi$ and $B_s \to K^+ K^-$ modes, in the framework of a global CKM fit. The method optimizes the constraining power of these decays and allows to derive constraints on NP contributions…
Non-leptonic $B^0_s \rightarrow D_s^{\pm} K^{\mp}$ transitions are particularly interesting processes to test the Standard Model. As these decays occur via pure tree diagrams, they allow a theoretically clean determination of the angle…
We analyse the CP asymmetry of the B -> phi K_S and B -> eta' K_S processes in general supersymmetric models. We show that chromomagnetic type of operator may play an important role in accounting for the deviation of the mixing CP asymmetry…
We investigate systematically how to extract new physics contributions in B --> K pi l^+ l^- decay by using the angular decomposition. The decomposition will enable us to define not only several CP averaged forward-backward (FB) asymmetries…
The origin of flavour and CP violation is among the most important open questions in particle physics. Imminent results from the LHC as well as planned dedicated flavour physics experiments might help to shed light on this puzzle. This talk…
We explore charged-Higgs cp-violating effects in a specific type III two-Higgs doublet model which is theoretically attractive as it accommodates the large mass of the top quark in a natural fashion. Two new CP-violating phases arise from…
New physics (NP) in charmless strangeness-changing $B$ and $B_s$ decays, which are dominated by the $b \to s$ penguin amplitudes, can either preserve isospin or change it by one unit. A general formalism is presented studying pairs of…
We perform a model-independent global fit to all germane and updated $b \to s \ell \ell$ ($\ell=e,\,\mu$) data assuming new physics couplings to be complex. Under the approximation that new physics universally affects muon and electron…
The observed D0 - anti-D0 oscillations provide a new stage in our search for New Physics in heavy flavour dynamics. The theoretical verdict on the observed values of x_D and y_D remains ambiguous: while they could be totally generated by…
Recent measurements of CP asymmetry in B --> phi K_S appear to be inconsistent with Standard Model expectations. We explore the effect of R-parity-violating SUSY to understand the data.
I discuss how b decays can be used to unravel new physics beyond the Standard Model. Decays second order in the weak interaction involving loops and CP violation are emphasized. This information is complementary to that obtainable with…
We present the most general (six-helicity) angular analysis of Bs -> V_1 (-> P_1P'_1) V_2 (-> P_2P'_2) (V_i is a vector meson, and P_i, P'_i are pseudoscalars). We focus on final states accessible to both Bs and Bsbar -- these are mainly…
