BaBar experiment scan around the Upsilon(4S) resonance and measure its mass and full width. They also measure Br(Upsilon(4S) -> B0 B0b) = 0.486 +/- 0.010 +/- 0.009 from 81.7 fb-1 Upsilon(4S) data. CLEO collaboration took about 0.42 fb-1…
We present the latest measurements of the Bc meson properties using 360 pb-1 of data collected by the CDF detector in RUN II. The results include the Bc mass and the ratio of branching fraction Bc->J/psi+l with respect to B->J/psi+K.
Penguin transitions play a key role in the search of New Physics hints in the heavy flavor sector. During the last decade CDF has been exploring this opportunity with a rich study of two--body charmless decays of neutral B mesons into…
New physics contributions to B_s-\bar{B}_s mixing can be parametrized by the size (r_s^2) and the phase (2\theta_s) of the total mixing amplitude relative to the Standard Model amplitude. The phase has so far been unconstrained. We first…
It is well known that New Physics can contribute to weak decays of heavy mesons via virtual processes during its decays. The discovery of New Physics, using such decays is made difficult due to intractable strong interaction effects needed…
The phenomenology of B_s^0 oscillations is reviewed along with the experimental strategy for observing them. Results of studies from ALEPH, DELPHI, and OPAL experiments are summarized with an emphasis on recent new results from ALEPH.
The Belle II experiment will measure the rare decays $B\to K\nu\nu$ and $B\to K^* \nu\nu$ with increased sensitivity which can hence be expected to serve as a very efficient probe of new physics. We calculate the relevant branching ratios…
Since the discovery of the Higgs boson, the long-standing task at hand in particle physics is the search for new physics beyond the Standard Model, which accounts for only about 5\% of the Universe. In light of this situation, the neutrino…
Flavour physics offers interesting probes for the exploration of the Standard Model and the search for new physics. In these lectures, we focus on B- and K-meson decays, introduce the concept of low-energy effective Hamiltonians to describe…
In this decade, the exploration of CP violation is governed by the B-meson system, where non-leptonic decays play an outstanding role. To set the stage, we have first a look at the main strategies to circumvent the calculation of the…
We give an overview of the experimental measurements and the theoretical understanding of the branching fractions and CP-violating asymmetries of charmless B-meson decays. Most experimetal results are from the BABAR and Belle experiments…
The Beijing Spectrometer (BESIII) collaboration uses $e^+e^-$ collisions in the tau-charm energy region to study a broad spectrum of topics. These include studies of light mesons and light baryons, studies of charmonium, including exotic…
If physics beyond the standard model is present in B decays, experimental measurements seem to suggest that it principally affects those processes with significant b->s penguin amplitudes. It was recently argued that, in general, such…
An excess in the branching fraction for $B^+ \to K^+ \nu\nu$ recently measured at Belle II may be a hint of new physics. We perform thorough likelihood analyses for different new physics scenarios such as $B \to KX$ with a new invisible…
The Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) experiment performed the first measurement of the time-evolution of flavor-tagged B0s->J/psiphi decays, which probes mixing-induced CP-violation in the B0s sector. Any sizable deviation from zero of…
Fermionic unparticles are introduced and their basic properties are discussed. Some phenomenologies related are exploited, such as their effects on charged Higgs boson decays and anomalous magnetic moments of leptons. Also, it has been…
During the past several decades a large quantity of high-quality mesonic photo- and electro- production data have been measured at electromagnetic facilities worldwide. By contrast, meson-beam data for these same final states are mostly…
We consider possible new physics contributions to b\to s l^+ l^- assuming the new physics modifies (chromo)magnetic and electric form factors in b\to s \gamma^* and b\to s g with the same chirality structure as in the standard model.…
Recent experimental data on several observables in semileptonic $B$-meson decays are found to be in tension with the corresponding Standard Model predictions. Most of these deviations are related to $b \to c$ and $b \to s$ flavour changing…
We present two recent results obtained by the CDF collaboration at the Tevatron collider. New Cabibbo suppresed B_s decay modes have been observed using 5.9 inverse fb of data: B_s-> J/psi Ks and B_s->J/psi K*0. We report also on masurement…
