Recent results from the CLEO Collaboration on both inclusive and exclusive radiative $B$ decays are used to constrain the parameter space of two versions of the Left-Right Symmetric Model. In the first scenario, when the left- and…
The rare decay $b \to s \gamma$ is studied in the left-right supersymmetric model. We give explicit expressions for all the amplitudes associated with the supersymmetric contributions coming from gluinos, charginos and neutralinos in the…
The recent observation by the CLEO Collaboration of the inclusive decay $b\to s\gamma$ with a branching fraction consistent with the expectations of the Standard Model is used to constrain the parameter space of the Left-Right Symmetric…
We study the decay B\to X_s\gamma in a minimal extension of the standard model with extra up- and down-type quarks whose left- and right-handed components are both SU(2) singlets. Constraints on the extended Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix…
These lectures review some of the progress made in the quantitative understanding of B decays. The emphasis here is on applications of QCD using perturbative and non-perturbative techniques. In some cases, however, phenomenological models…
We consider $b \to s \gamma$ decays in the Left-Right Symmetric Model. Values of observables sensitive to chiral structure such as the $\Lambda$ polarization in the $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ decays and the mixing-induced CP asymmetries…
Properties of b-baryon decay matrix elements (amplitudes) have been derived in a nonsymmetric quark model without any use of SU(6), SU(3), or SU(2) (isotopic spin) groups. Equalities between pairs of amplitudes are derived, and…
The implications of the latest measurement of the branching fraction of B($ b\rightarrow s \gamma $) of b hadrons, which is another signature of New Physics beyond Standard Model is presented here. The quark transitions $ b \rightarrow s $,…
Recent results from Belle and BaBar Collaborations hint at a small $\sin2\phi_1$, while the measured $B\to\pi\pi$ rate also seems to be on the low side. Supersymmetric (SUSY) models with down squark mixings can account for the deficits in…
In left-right symmetric models, large contributions to the decay amplitude $b \rightarrow s+ \gamma$ can arise from the mixing of the $W_L$ and $W_R$ gauge bosons as well as from the charged Higgs boson. These amplitudes are enhanced by the…
The experimental decay branching ratios of mesons like $B_s\to \ell\bar \ell$ and $B_d\to \ell\bar \ell$ ($\ell=e$ or $\mu$) do not agree completely with the standard model (SM). Cartan's supersymmetry predicts relation of the coupling of…
Rare flavour-changing neutral-current transitions of the type $s \to d \ell^+\ell^-(\nu\bar\nu)$ and $b \to s \ell^+\ell^-(\nu\bar\nu)$ are analysed in supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model with generic flavour couplings. It is…
In left-right models the gluonic penguin contribution to b --> s s-bar s transition is enhanced by m_t/m_b due to the presence of (V+A) currents and by the larger values of loop functions than in the Standard Model. Together those may…
We reexamine the right-handed current effects in $b \to s$ transitions in nonmanifest left-right models. Using the effective Hamiltonian approach including all possible low-energy operators, we obtain especially the B \to K \pi decay…
We explain the difference between the measured decay widths of $b \to c \tau \nu$ processes and of $B\to K\nu\bar{\nu}$ and their values predicted in the Standard Model by introducing the right-handed interactions both to quarks and to…
In the Standard Model (SM) the photon in radiative $\bar B^0$ and $\bar B_s$ decays is predominantly left-handed. Thus, mixing induced CP asymmetries in $b\to s\gamma$ and $b\to d\gamma$ are suppressed by $m_s/m_b$ and $m_d/m_b$,…
We examine the implications of the hypothesis that the decays of the b-quark occur via pure right-handed couplings. We show that the existing lower limits on neutrinoless double beta decay imply that any gauge model realizing this idea must…
We study $B_c \to (D,\,D^{\ast})\,l\,\nu$ semileptonic decays mediated via $b \to u\,l\,\nu$ charged current interactions using the $B_c \to (D,\,D^{\ast})$ transition form factors obtained in the covariant light front quark model. We give…
This review addresses the question of the chirality of $b$ quark weak couplings from a theoretical and from a purely phenomenological point of view. Due to their small magnitude $b$ decay couplings are subject to possible large corrections…
The b to d d s bar transition gives extremely small branching ratios within the standard model, thus providing an appropriate ground for testing new physics. Using renormalization group technique we determine the Wilson coefficients and the…
