We present a search for the lepton-flavour-violating decays $B^+ \to K^+ \tau^\pm \ell^\mp$, with $\ell = (e, \mu)$, using the full data sample of $772 \times 10^6$ $B\overline{B}$ pairs recorded by the Belle detector at the KEKB…
BABAR and Belle measurements of branching fractions, rate asymmetries and angular observables in the decay modes B \to K(*)l+l- are reviewed and new results from CDF on B \to K(*){\mu}+{\mu}- branching fractions and angular observables are…
We have searched for the tau lepton flavor violating decays tau- -> l-K0s (l = e or mu), using a data sample of 281 fb^-1 collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e+e- asymmetric-energy collider. No evidence for a signal was found in…
We report an observation of the decay $B^0\to D^{*-} \tau^+ \nu_{\tau}$ in a data sample containing $535\times10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^+e^-$ collider. We find a signal with a…
We study constraints on new physics from the recent measurement of Br ($K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar \nu)$ by the E787 and E949 Collaborations. In our analysis we consider two models of new physics: $(a)$ extra down type singlet quark model…
We report measurements of branching fractions of $\tau$ lepton decays to final states with a $K^{0}_{S}$ meson using a 669 fb$^{-1}$ data sample accumulated with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy $e^{+}e^{-}$ collider. The…
The LHCb has measured the ratios of $B\to K^\ast\mu^+\mu^-$ to $B\to K^\ast e^+ e^-$ branching fractions in two dilepton invariant mass squared bins, which deviate from the Standard Model predictions by approximately $2.5\sigma$. These new…
We have searched for the lepton-flavor-violating decay tau -> e gamma using a data sample of 86.7/fb collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric e^+ e^- collider. No evidence for a signal is obtained, and we set an upper limit…
We update the bounds on $R$-parity violating supersymmetry originating from meson oscillations in the $B^0_{d/s}$ and $K^0$ systems. To this end, we explicitly calculate all corresponding contributions from $R$-parity violating operators at…
Bounds on R-parity violating couplings in the supersymmetric standard model are reviewed, and some new bounds arising from non-observation of certain rare B-decays (such as $B \rightarrow K^+K^-$) are presented. The focus is on…
Within the assumption of Left-Handed (LH) New Physics (NP), we review the relations between $\mathcal{B}(B\to K^{(\ast)} \tau^+\tau^-)$ and $\mathcal{B}(B\to K^{(\ast)} \nu\bar \nu)$ for several Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) scenarios,…
Implications of the recent new measurements of $B\to K_1\gamma$ by Belle are examined. It is shown that the new branching ratio $\calB(B\to K_1(1270)\gamma)$ requires very large form factor compared to the theoretically predicted one. This…
We have derived new upper limits on several products (two at a time) of lepton number violating $\lambda'$-type couplings from the consideration of $\Delta S = 2$ and $\Delta B = 2$ box graphs. Each box contains one scalar lepton and one…
We analyze the lepton-universality violating $B\to K^{(*)}\ell^+\ell^-$ puzzle $R(K^{(*)})$ in a model-independent way. The branching ratio ${\rm Br}(B_s\to\mu^+\mu^-)$ is also considered as a main constraint. We show how the branching…
We put constraints on several products of R-parity violating lambda lambda' and lambda' lambda' type couplings from leptonic and semileptonic tau, B_d and B_s decays. Most of them are one to two orders of magnitude better than the existing…
There are several exciting results for the hadronic B decays of Belle and BaBar recently. My report focuses on the ratios of branching fractions and $CP$ asymmetry for $B \to hh$ decays at Belle and BaBar where $h$ denotes $\pi$ or $K$. The…
We perform a critical reassessment of the constraints on the R-parity and baryon number violating (s)top couplings coming from flavor physics. In particular, we study K0-K0bar mixing, including QCD corrections and a class of diagrams that…
