We study the semileptonic $B\to{\bf B\bar B'}L\bar L'$ decays with $\bf B\bar B'$ ($L\bar L'$) representing a baryon (lepton) pair. Using the new determination of the $B\to{\bf B\bar B'}$ transition form factors, we obtain ${\cal B}(B^-\to…

We consider the most general new physics effective Lagrangian for b--> s l+ l-. We derive the upper limit on the branching ratio for the processes B_s--> l^+ l- where l=e, mu, subject to the current experimental bounds on related processes,…
In this talk I give a theoretical overview of the rare decays $B_{s} \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $B_{d} \to \mu^+ \mu^-$. The branching ratios of these decays are promising probes of New Physics, both independently and relative to each other.…
In our previous work, based on the $SU(6)$ spin-flavor wave function, we regard $\Lambda$ and $p$ as composed of different quark-diquark configurations and established the Bethe-Salpeter (BS) equations of configurations for quark and scalar…
We study the decays of $B_{s,d} \to l^+ l^- \gamma (l=e, \mu,\tau)$ within the light-front model. We calculate the tensor type form factors and use these form factors to evaluate the decay branching ratios. We find that, in the standard…
Heavy quark decays provide a very advantageous investigation to test the Standard Model (SM). Recently, promising experiments with \textit{b} quark, as well as the analysis of the huge data sets produced at the B factories, have led to an…
We predict the branching ratios of lepton flavor violating radion decays r -> e^{\pm} \mu^{\pm}, r -> e^{\pm} \tau^{\pm} and r -> \mu^{\pm} \tau^{\pm} in the two Higgs doublet model, in the framework of the Randall Sundurum scenario. We…

The first observation of the $\Xi_b^0 \to J/\psi \Xi^- \pi^+$ decay and the most precise measurement of the branching fraction of the $\Lambda_b^0 \to J/\psi \Xi^- K^+$ decay are reported, using proton-proton collision data from the LHCb…
We report a measurement of the branching fraction of $B^+ \to \tau^+ \nu_\tau$ decays using a data sample of $772 \times 10^6 B \bar{B}$ pairs, collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy…
We analyze the lepton flavor violating decays $\tau\rightarrow Pl$ ($P=\pi,\eta,\eta';\;l=e,\mu$) in the scenario of the minimal R-symmetric supersymmetric standard model. The prediction on the branching ratios BR$(\tau\rightarrow P e)$ and…

In this work we calculate the branching ratios of semi-leptonic and non-leptonic decays of $\Lambda_b$ into light baryons ($p$ and $\Lambda$), as well as the measurable asymmetries which appear in the processes, in the light front quark…
Besides being important to determine Standard Model parameters such as the CKM matrix elements $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$, semileptonic $B$ decays seem also promising to reveal new physics (NP) phenomena, in particular in connection with the…
Motivated by the recent LHCb announcement of a $3.1\sigma$ violation of lepton-flavor universality in the ratio $R_K=\Gamma(B\to K\mu^+\mu^-)/\Gamma(B\to K e^+ e^-)$, we present an updated, comprehensive analysis of the flavor anomalies…
