We list all possible dim=6 CP conserving and SU(3)* SU(2)*U(1) gauge invariant interactions, which could be generated in case no new particles would be reachable in the future Colliders, and the only observable New Physics would be in the…
We develop a rigorous, semi-analytical method for maximizing any $b\to c\tau\nu$ observable in the full 20-real-dimensional parameter space of the dimension 6 effective Hamiltonian, given some fixed values of $R_{D^{(*)}}$. We apply our…
Anomalies in the non-leptonic $\bar{B}^0\rightarrow D^{(*)+}K^{(*)-}$ and $\bar{B}^0_s\rightarrow D^{(*)+}_s\pi^-$ decays may be an indication of physics beyond the Standard Model, but the large deviations require strongly coupled new…
Latest measurement of the ratio of branching ratios $R_D = \mathcal B(B \to D\,\tau\,\nu)/\mathcal B(B \to D\,l\,\nu)$ and $R_{D^{\ast}} = \mathcal B(B \to D^{\ast}\,\tau\,\nu)/\mathcal B(B \to D^{\ast}\,l\,\nu)$, where $l$ is either an…
We implement the $\chi^2$ fit for $R(K^{(*)})$ with possible tree-level new physics in a model-independent parametrization. Relevant Wilson coefficients are decomposed into the new physics scale, its power, and the fermionic couplings.…
We present the first global phenomenological fit of inclusive $\bar B\to X_c\ell\bar\nu$ observables to all available experimental data allowing for generic dimension-six New Physics interactions in the Weak Effective Theory. The fit…
We present a model-independent analysis of rare B decays, $B \to K^{(*)} \nu \nu$. The effect of possible new physics is written in terms of dimension-6 four-fermi interactions. The lepton number violating scalar- and tensor-type…
Motivated by the persistent anomalies reported in the $b\to c\tau\bar{\nu}$ data, we perform a general model-independent analysis of these transitions, in the presence of light right-handed neutrinos. We adopt an effective field theory…
We propose to investigate the effects of new physics in the semi-leptonic sequential decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c (\to \Lambda \pi) \tau{\bar \nu}_{\tau}$. Firstly, we write the general, model independent, non-covariant expression of the…
The recent measurements on $R_D$, $R_{D^*}$ and $R_{J/\psi}$ by three pioneering experiments, BaBar, Belle and LHCb, indicate that the notion of lepton flavour universality is violated in the weak charged-current processes, mediated through…
We show that it is possible to construct observables to test the existence of new physics in a model independent way for the $D^0\rightarrow VV$ modes using a time-dependent analysis of the neutral $D$ meson. We show that it is possible to…
Using the general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian, the general expressions of the longitudinal, normal and transversal polarization asymmetries for (l^-) and (l^+) and combinations of them for the exclusive (B -> K l^+…
The standard model weak interactions can be described by four-fermion V-A operators at low energies. New physics at the TeV scale can, however, generate the other Lorentz structures. In this talk, we review the constraints on such…
We study potential New Physics effects in the $\bar B \to D^{(*)} \tau \bar\nu$ decays. As a particular example of New Physics models we consider the class of leptoquark models and put the constraints on the leptoquark couplings using the…
At present, there are several hints of lepton flavor non-universality. The LHCb Collaboration has measured $R_K\equiv{\cal B}(B^+ \to K^+ \mu^+ \mu^-)/{\cal B}(B^+ \to K^+ e^+ e^-)$, and the BaBar Collaboration has measured $R(D^{(*)})…
We consider scalar tensor theories in D-dimensional spacetime, D \ge 4. They consist of metric and a non minimally coupled scalar field, with its non minimal coupling characterised by a function. The probes couple minimally to the metric…
In this work, we perform a combined analysis of the $R(D)$, $R(D^*)$, and $R(J/\psi)$ anomalies in a model-independent manner based on the general framework of the four-fermion effective field theory, paying special attention to the use of…
New physics in the form of scalar/pseudoscalar operators cannot lower the semileptonic branching ratio B(B --> K mu+ mu-) below its standard model value. In addition, we show that the upper bound on the leptonic branching ratio B(B_s -->…
We study all possible observables in $B\to D^{(\ast)}\tau\nu_{\tau}$ with new physics (NP), including new vector, scalar and tensor interactions, and investigate the prospects of extracting NP Wilson coefficients with optimal observables.…
We study the semileptonic decays $B_s \to D_s^{(*)}\tau\bar{\nu}$ as a promising probe for new physics (NP) beyond the standard model (SM). The extension of the SM is done through the introduction of four-fermion operators beyond the $V-A$…
