We study the rare decay $B\to K_2^\ast(1430)(\to K\pi)\ell^+\ell^-$ in the Standard Model and beyond. Working in the transversity basis, we exploit the relations between the heavy-to-light form factors in the limit of heavy quark ($m_b\to…
This study examines the rare decay $B \to K_0^*(1430)\,\ell^+ \ell^-$ as a possible probe for new physics beyond the standard model (SM). We first analyze this channel within the SM and then include scalar leptoquark (LQ) contributions. We…

We begin to analyze and contrast the predictions for the decay $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ in the Left-Right Symmetric Model(LRM) with those of the Standard Model(SM). In particular, we show that the forward-backward asymmetry of the lepton…
We investigate rare special dileptonic decays of $ \Lambda_b$, $\Sigma_b$ and $\Xi_b $ baryons in the Standard Model and context of the general Two-Higgs-Doublet Model with Type III. Specifically, we consider the decays $ \Lambda_b…
Using the $B_s$ meson wave function extracted from non-leptonic $B_s$ decays, we evaluate the short distance contribution of rare decays $B_s\to \ell^+\ell^-\gamma(\ell=e,\mu)$ in the standard model, including all the possible diagrams. We…

The rare exclusive dileptonic $\Lambda_{b}\to \Lambda\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ $(\ell =\mu, \tau)$ decays are investigated in the general two-Higgs-doublet model of type III. A significant enhancement to the branching ratios, differential branching…
It is generally believed that the decay mode $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$ is one of the best modes to search for physics beyond the standard model. The angular distribution enables the independent measurement of several observables as a function…
We briefly review the status of rare radiative and semileptonic $b \to s (\gamma, \ell^+ \ell^-)$, ($\ell=e,\mu$) decays. We discuss possible signatures of new physics in these modes and emphazise the role of the exclusive channels. In…
It was observed recently by Randall and Wise that, any particle in the Standard Model cannot decay to $e^+e^-$ and $\gamma \gamma$ final states with comparably measurable branching ratios. This is also true for most extensions of the…
The extremely small branching ratio of $b\to ss{\bar d}$ decay in the Standard Model makes it a suitable channel to explore new-physics signals. We study this $\Delta S=2$ process in Randall-Sundrum models, including the custodially…
The decay mode $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$ is one of the most promising modes to probe physics beyond the standard model (SM), since the angular distribution of the decay products enable measurement of several constraining observables. LHCb has…
Decays of the kind $B^0_{s,d}\to\ell^+\ell^-$ belong to the most favourable processes for probing the flavour structure of the Standard Model, with outstanding sensitivity to new (pseudo)-scalar contributions. While the branching ratio of…
