We perform an analysis of the $b\to c\tau\nu$ data, including $R(D^{(*)})$, $R(J/\psi)$, $P_\tau(D^{*})$ and $F_L^{D^*}$, within and beyond the Standard Model (SM). We fit the $B\to D^{(*)}$ hadronic form factors in the HQET parametrization…
We study possible New Physics (NP) effects in the exclusive decays $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{(\ast)} \tau^- \bar{\nu}_{\tau}$. We extend the Standard Model (SM) by taking into account right-handed vector (axial), left- and right-handed…
We study the semileptonic decays of the $B_c$ meson into final charmonium states within the standard model and beyond. The relevant hadronic transition form factors are calculated in the framework of the covariant confined quark model…
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 $V-A$…
In the covariant light-front quark model, we investigate the form factors of $B_c$ decays into $D, D^*, D_s, D_s^*, \eta_c, J/\psi, B, B^*, B_s, B_s^*$ mesons. The form factors in the spacelike region $q^2<0$ are directly evaluated. To…
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 discuss possible new physics (NP) effects beyond the standard model (SM) in the exclusive decays $\bar{B}^0 \to D^{(\ast)} \tau^- \bar{\nu}_{\tau}$. Starting with a model-independent effective Hamiltonian including non-SM four-Fermi…
Motivated by the recent theoretical and experimental developments in $b \to c \ell\nu$ transitions, the aim of these proceedings is to critically analyse the current situation in this sector. In particular, we will inspect the possibility…
The decays governed by the flavor-changing-neutral-current transitions (FCNC), such as $b\to s\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$, provide an important tool to test the physics in and beyond the Standard Model (SM). This work focuses on investigating the…
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…
The $R(D^{(\ast)})$ anomalies observed in $B\to D^{(\ast)}\tau\nu$ decays have attracted much attention in recent years. In this paper, we study the $B\to D^{(\ast)}\tau\nu$, $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda_c\tau\nu$, $B_c\to…
I present analyses of semileptonic $B_c$ decays. I first discuss the decays induced by $c \to \{s, d \}$ transitions, in particular $B_c \to B_a \, \bar{\ell} \, \nu_\ell$ and $B_c \to B_a^*(\to B_a \, \gamma) \, \bar{\ell} \, \nu_\ell$…
We perform a global analysis of the $b\to c\tau\nu$ data using the recent lattice results on the $B_c\to J/\psi$ vector and axial-vector form factors. To explore the effects from the tensor operator of new physics beyond the standard model,…
In this work we present the first non-perturbative determination of the hadronic susceptibilities that constrain the form factors entering the semileptonic $B \to D^{(*)} \ell \nu_\ell $ transitions due to unitarity and analyticity. The…
In a recent paper we studied the effect of new-physics operators with different Lorentz structures on the semileptonic $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c \tau \bar{\nu}_{\tau}$ decay. This decay is of interest in light of the $R({D^{(*)}})$ puzzle in…
We benefit from the lattice QCD determination by the HPQCD of the Standard Model (SM) form factors for the $\bar B_s\to D_s$ [Phys. Rev. D 101, 074513 (2020)] and the SM and tensor ones for the $\bar B_s\to D_s^{*}$ (arXiv:2304.03137…
We examine the measured rates for the decays $D\to K^{(*)}\ell\nu$, $B\to K^{(*)}\psi^{(\prime)}$ and $B\to K^*\gamma$ in a number of scenarios, in the framework of the heavy quark effective theory. We attempt to find a scenario in which…
Recent anomalies in decays induced by $b\to c \ell^- \bar\nu_\ell$ transitions raise the question about such phenomena in the $D$ decays induced by $c\to (s,d)\ell^+\nu_\ell$ transitions. In the experimental side, current measurements on…
Besides being important to determine Standard Model parameters such as the CKM matrix elements $|V_{cb}|$ and $|V_{ub}|$, semileptonic $B$ decays seem also promising to reveal new physics (NP) phenomena, in particular in connection with the…
In this work, we revisit the possible new physics (NP) solutions by analyzing the observables associated with $B\to D^{(\ast)}\tau\bar{\nu}_{\tau}$ decays. To explore the structure of new physics, the form factors of $B\to D^{(\ast)}$…
