We determine the branching fractions ${\mathcal{B}}$ and $CP$ asymmetries ${\mathcal{A}_{{\it CP}}}$ of the decays $B^+ \rightarrow \pi^+ \pi^0$ and $B^+ \rightarrow K^+ \pi^0$. The results are based on a data set containing 198 million…

The Belle and Belle II experiments have collected a 1.3 ab$^{-1}$ sample of $e^+e^-\to B\bar B$ collisions at $\Upsilon(4S)$ centre-of-mass energy. This is ideal environment to search for rare electroweak penguin $B$ decays and notably…
