We present recent measurements by SLD of the branching fractions of B hadrons to states with 0 and 2 open charm hadrons, BR_{0D} and BR_{2D}, from which both the average charm yield per B decay, N_c and the inclusive branching ratio into…
The recent Tevatron result on the top quark forward-backward asymmetry, which deviates from its standard model prediction by 3.4$\sigma$, has prompted many authors to build new models to account for this anomaly. Among the various…
Among (semi)leptonic rare $B$-decays induced by the $b \to d$ flavor changing neutral current, the decay $B^+ \to \pi^+ \mu^+ \mu^-$ is the only one observed so far experimentally. Related decays involving the $e^+e^-$ and $\tau^+ \tau^-$…
Baryons with a heavy c-quark or a heavy b-quark and also two c-quarks have been discovered. These states are expected in QCD and therefore provide a test for the theory. There should be double beauty baryons, and also an intriguing…

Rare $b$ hadron decays are considered excellent probes of new semileptonic four-fermion interactions of microscopic origin. However, the same interactions also correct the high-mass Drell-Yan tails. In this work, we revisit the first…
