The extraction of right-handed currents, beyond the Standard Model, faces theoretical challenges from long-distance contributions. We show that these effects can be controlled by combining, for example, studies of $B \to V(1^-) \gamma$ and…
We critically re-examine the case for and against a sizeable right-handed component in the $b\to c$ charged current coupling with a strength $\xi$ relative to the conventional left-handed current. Using data from CLEO on the decay $B\to…
Precision CP violation measurements in rare hadronic B decays could provide clean signatures of parity symmetric new physics, implying the existence of SU(2)_L x SU(2)_R x U(1)_{B-L} x P symmetry at high energies. New contributions to the…
We discuss a possibility to probe right-handed weak hadronic currents in rare semileptonic b -> s transitions. It is shown that within models involving right-handed as well as left-handed quark currents (LR models) one can expect a strong…
Motivated by $-2 \sigma$ deviation from the Standard Model prediction for the forward--backward asymmetry of $Z \to b \bar{b}$ decay in the LEP data, we explore the anomalous couplings of $Z b \bar{b}$ vertex through the electroweak…
We reexamine the right-handed current effects in $b \to s$ transitions in nonmanifest left-right models. Using the effective Hamiltonian approach including all possible low-energy operators, we obtain especially the B \to K \pi decay…
In a recent Letter we determined analytically the right-handed quark mixing matrix in the minimal Left-Right symmetric theory with generalized Parity. We derived its explicit form as a series expansion in a small parameter that measures the…
An interesting possibility to ease the tension between various determinations of |V_{ub}| is to allow a small right-handed contribution to the standard model weak current. The present bounds on such a contribution are fairly weak. We…
Right handed weak-currents (RHCs) in the left-right (L-R) symmetric model for neutrinoless double beta decays (DBDs) of both the $0^+~\to~0^+$ and $0^+~\to~2^+$ transitions are discussed from both theoretical and experimental view points.…
The effects of possible right-handed weak hadronic currents in rare exclusive semileptonic decays B -> (K, K*) nu bar{nu} are investigated using a lattice-constrained dispersion quark model for the calculation of the relevant mesonic form…
We examine constraints on a model with pure right-handed third generation charged couplings. The parameters of the right-handed mixing matrix and the right-handed coupling strength are constrained from semi-leptonic B decays, the mass…
We point out that the decays of B mesons into a vector meson and an axial-vector meson can distinguish between left and right-handed polarized mesons, in contrast to decays into two vector mesons. Measurements in B0 -> D*-a1+ are proposed…
We study the impact of new physics contributions to neutrinoless double beta decay arising from right-handed current in comparison with the standard mechanism. If the light neutrinos obtain their masses from Type-II seesaw within left-right…
We comment on a recent suggestion by Amundson, Rosner, Worah and Wise to test the chirality of the $b$-quark decay coupling via polarized $\Lambda_b$ baryons produced in $e^+e^-\rightarrow Z\rightarrow \Lambda_b +X$. We study the effect of…
The decay mode $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$ is one of the most promising modes to probe physics beyond the standard model (SM), since the angular distribution of the decay products enable measurement of several constraining observables. LHCb has…
This review addresses the question of the chirality of $b$ quark weak couplings from a theoretical and from a purely phenomenological point of view. Due to their small magnitude $b$ decay couplings are subject to possible large corrections…
We determine an upper bound for a possible right-handed $b{\to}c$ quark current admixture in semileptonic $\bar{B} \to X_{c} \ell^{-} \bar{\nu}$ decays from a simulateous fit to moments of the lepton-enery and hadronic-mass distribution…
In this paper a scenario admitting the participation of right-handed vector V and axial A couplings with the conservation of the left-handed standard (V, A) couplings is considered. The research is based on the muon capture by proton. We…
We consider the recent LHCb result for $B_c\to J/\psi \tau \nu$ in conjunction with the existing anomalies in $R(D)$ and $R(D^\star)$ within the framework of a right-handed current with enhanced couplings to the third generation. The model…
In this article, we perform a sensitivity study of an unbinned angular analysis of the $B\to D^*\ell \nu_\ell$ decay, including the contributions from the right-handed current. We show that the angular observable can constrain very strongly…
