We discuss about a possibility of large electro-weak penguin contribution in B -> K pi from recent experimental data. The several relations among the branching ratios which realize when the contributions from tree type and electro-weak…
We review new results in neutrino physics, including the latest data of the Super-Kamiokande, SNO and K2K experiments.
I briefly review the theory status of exclusive rare radiative decays.
We calculate branching ratios for pure penguin decay modes, $B\to \phi K$ decays using perturbative QCD approach. Our results of branching ratios are consistent with the experimental data and larger than those obtained from the naive…
Weak radiative baryonic B decays $B\to\B_1\ov \B_2\gamma$ mediated by the electromagnetic penguin process $b\to s\gamma$ have appreciable rates larger than their two-body counterparts $B\to\B_1\ov \B_2$. The branching ratios for…
An overview of recent theoretical developments in rare leptonic B decays is given. New physics effects on branching ratio and CP violation in the decays are analyzed in models beyond SM (supersymmetric models and two Higgs doublet models).

We present a concise review of the theoretical status of the rare semileptonic B -> X_s l^+ l^- decays in the standard model. Particular attention is thereby devoted to the recent theoretical progress concerning, on the one hand the…
We briefly reviewed some recent progress on the studies of supernova remnants (SNRs), including the radio SNRs (the structure, polarization, spectrum etc.), observational characteristics of X-ray emission, pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe),…

Rare loop-induced decays are sensitive to New Physics in many Standard Model extensions. In this paper we discuss the potential of the LHCb experiment to very rare $\mathrm{B_s} \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ decays, radiative penguin $\mathrm{b \to…
Radiative and electroweak decays of B mesong (B to X_{s(d)}{\gamma} and B to X_{s(d)}\ell\ell, respectively, where X is a hadronic system and s or d labels the underlying quark process b to s(d)\gamma) provide good places to search for new…
We review recent experimental results on hadronic decays and lifetimes of hadrons containing b and c quarks. We discuss charm counting and the semileptonic branching fraction in B decays, the color suppressed amplitude in B decay, and the…
We describe two recent developments of the radiative correction theory in semileptonic beta decays. For neutron, a novel dispersive analysis of the $\gamma W$-box diagram making use of neutrino scattering data leads to an improved precision…
The space-like penguin contributions to branching ratios and CP asymmetries in charmless decays of $B$ to two pseudoscalar mesons are studied using the next-to-leading order low energy effective Hamiltonian. Both the gluonic penguin and the…
