The Belle and Belle II experiments have collected a 1.3 ab$^{-1}$ sample of $e^+e^-\to B\bar B$ collisions at $\Upsilon(4S)$ centre-of-mass energy. This is ideal environment to search for rare electroweak penguin $B$ decays and notably…
We present a study of rare decay modes $B^{+} \to D_{s}^{+}h^{0}$, $B^{+} \to D_{s}^{\ast+}h^{0}$, and $B^{+} \to D^{+}h^{0}$, where $h^{0}$ denotes the neutral mesons $\eta$ or $K^{0}$, using a data sample of $(772 \pm 10 ) \times 10^{6}$…
