Flavor symmetries that explain masses and mixings of the standard model fermions dictate flavor patterns for the couplings of scalar and vector leptoquarks to the standard model fermions. A generic feature is that couplings to…
In this work, we study the decays $\Lambda_c \to (\Lambda, n) \ell^+ \nu_\ell$ ($\ell = \mu, e$) within a model-independent framework. We calculate the helicity amplitudes for all possible four-fermion operators, including the interactions…

This report introduces two recent measurements of semileptonic $b$-hadron decays at the LHCb experiment, including a test of Lepton Flavour Universality (LFU) using $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{(*)+} l^- \bar{\nu}_l$ decays where $l\in\{\mu,\tau\}$,…
Recent measurements of exclusive $B^{-} \to \tau^{-}\,\nu$ and $B^0 \to \pi^{+}\,l^{-}\,\bar{\nu}_l$ decays via the $b \to u\,l\,\nu$ transition process differ from the standard model expectation and, if they persist in future $B$…
Recent measurements of semileptonic $B$-meson decays into $\tau$-leptons are somewhat higher than expected in the standard model. Although the deviations are less than 3$\sigma$, they suggest the possibility of new physics affecting…
The shape of the lepton spectrum in inclusive semileptonic $B\to X\,\ell\,\bar\nu_\ell$ decay is sensitive to matrix elements of the heavy quark effective theory, $\bar\Lambda$ and $\lambda_1$. From CLEO data we extract…
We propose a variant of the Pati-Salam model, with gauge group $SU(4)_C\times SU(2)_L\times U(1)_{Y'}$, in which the chiral left-handed quarks and leptons are unified into a $\underline{4}$ of $SU(4)_C$, while the right-handed quarks and…

Motivated by possible scalar-leptoquark explanations of the recently reported $B$-decay anomalies, we investigate whether the required leptoquarks can be accommodated within models based on noncommutative geometry (NCG). The models…

The Standard Model (SM) predicts the universality of lepton couplings with the electroweak gauge bosons. Semileptonic decays of $b$-hadrons provide a powerful framework for testing the SM and probing possible New Physics effects. In…

The semileptonic decay channel B -> D tau nu is sensitive to the presence of a scalar current, such as that mediated by a charged-Higgs boson. Recently the BaBar experiment reported the first observation of the exclusive semileptonic decay…
Extant anomalies in several semileptonic $B$-meson decays argue for physics beyond the Standard Model. Measurements of both neutral-current decays (such as $R_K$, $R_{K^*}$ and $B_s\rightarrow \phi\mu\mu$) as well as charged-current ones-…
