Recent LHCb measurements show small discrepancies with respect to the Standard Model (SM) predictions in selected angular distributions of the mode $B^0 \to K^{*0} \mu^+ \mu^-$. The possibility of explaining such tensions within theories…

We present, for the first time, the six-fold differential decay density expression for $\Lambda^0_b\to\Lambda^+_{c} l^- \bar{\nu}_{l}$, taking into account the polarisation of the $\Lambda^0_b$ baryon and a complete basis of new physics…

Deviations with respect to Standard Model predictions have recently shown up in angular distributions of the FCNC induced mode $B^0 \to K^{*0} \mu^+ \mu^-$. Within New Physics models, such tensions might be explained by new contributions to…

A search for $C\!P$ violation in the decay $\Lambda^0_b \to p K^- \mu^+ \mu^-$ is presented. This decay is mediated by flavour-changing neutral-current transitions in the Standard Model and is potentially sensitive to new sources of $C\!P$…
