At the present time, there are a number of measurements of $B$-decay observables that disagree with the predictions of the standard model. These discrepancies have been seen in processes governed by two types of decay: (i) $b \to s \mu^+…
The evaluation, systematic analysis and numerical study of the semileptonic $\tau$-lepton decays with two mesons in the final state has been made in the frame of the standard model extended by right handed neutrinos. In the analysis,…
In recent times, the charged-current mediated semileptonic $b \to c \tau \bar \nu_\tau$ processes have attracted a lot of attention after the observation of lepton non-universality ratios, $R_{D^{(*)}}$, $R_{J/\psi}$ and the measurements on…
We put constraints on several products of R-parity violating lambda lambda' and lambda' lambda' type couplings from leptonic and semileptonic tau, B_d and B_s decays. Most of them are one to two orders of magnitude better than the existing…
We study the decays of $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c(\to B_n f) \ell ^- \overline{\nu}$ with $\ell = e, \mu, \tau$, where $B_n$ and $f$ are the daughter baryons and the rest of the particles in $\Lambda_c$ cascade decays, respectively. In…
The semileptonic decays of Lambda_c and Lambda_b are treated in the framework of a constituent quark model. Both nonrelativistic and semirelativistic Hamiltonians are used to obtain the baryon wave functions from a fit to the spectra, and…
We investigate the exclusive rare semileptonic decays $ B_c \to D_{s}^{(*)}\,(\ell \ell, \nu \bar{\nu})$ induced by neutral current transition $b \to s (\ell \ell,\nu \bar{\nu})$ in the presence of non-universal $Z^{\prime}$, scalar and…
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…
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 $\tau^+ \tau^-$…
Hints of lepton flavor universality violation observed in various flavor ratios such as $R_D$, $R_{D^*}$, $R_{J/\psi}$, $P_\tau^{D^*}$ and $F_L^{D^*}$ in $B\to D^{(*)}\,\ell \, \nu$ and $B_c\to J/\psi \, \ell\, \nu$ charge current decays…
The latest BaBar measurements of the ratios ${\cal R}(D^{(*)})=\displaystyle{\frac{{\cal B}(B \to D^{(*)} \tau {\bar \nu}_\tau)}{{\cal B}(B \to D^{(*)} \mu {\bar \nu}_\mu)}}$ deviate from the Standard Model predictions at the global level…
We study the doubly-polarized lepton pair forward-backward asymmetries in (Lambda_b -> Lambda l^+ l^-) decay using a general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian. We present the general expression for nine…
A possibility is considered of explaining the low experimental value of the ratio of the lifetimes tau(Lambda_b)/tau(B_d) by a new `centiweak' four-quark interaction, i.e with a strength on the order of 10^{-2}G_F. It is noted that the…
The anomalously large experimentally measured ratios of the semitauonic decay $B\rightarrow D^{(*)} +\tau+\nu$ and the corresponding semileptonic $B\rightarrow D^{*} +\l+\bar{\nu}_l$ disagree with the predictions of the standard E.W + QCD…
The universality of the weak interactions can be tested in semileptonic $b \to c$ transitions, and in particular in the ratios $R(D^{(*)}) \equiv \Gamma(B \rightarrow D^{(*)} \tau \nu )/\Gamma(B \rightarrow D^{(*)} \ell \nu )$ (where $\ell…
Recent experimental data on several observables in semileptonic $B$-meson decays are found to be in tension with the corresponding Standard Model predictions. Most of these deviations are related to $b \to c$ and $b \to s$ flavour changing…
Latest Lattice results on $D$ form factors evaluation from first principles show that the standard model (SM) branching ratios prediction for the leptonic $D_s \to \ell \nu_\ell$ decays and the semileptonic SM branching ratios of the $D^0$…
Inspired by the recently observed tensions between the experimental data and the theoretical predictions, based on QCD factorisation, for several colour-allowed non-leptonic $B$-meson decays, we study the potential size of new physics (NP)…
The semi-leptonic $b \to c l \nu$ processes are receiving a lot of attention, as the lepton flavor universality violation has been hinted by the measured ratios $R_{D^{(*)}} = \Gamma(B \to D^{(*)} \tau\nu)/\Gamma(B \to D^{(*)} \ell\nu)$ for…
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…
