We study a set of exclusive decay modes of the Standard Model Higgs boson into a vector meson and a dilepton pair: $h\to V \ell^+ \ell^-$, with $V=\Upsilon, J/\psi,\phi$, and $\ell=\mu, \tau$, determining the decay rates, the dilepton mass…

Experimental data on $ R(D^{(*)}) $, $ R(K^{(*)}) $ and $ R(J/\psi) $, provided by different collaborations, show sizable deviations from the SM predictions. To describe these anomalies many new physics scenarios have been proposed. One of…

In the standard model the two-body charmless hadronic $B_c$ meson decays can occur via annihilation diagrams only. In this work, we studied the $B_c \to PP, PV/VP,VV$ decays by employing the perturbative QCD (pQCD) factorization approach.…

The experimental predictions of $R_D$, $R_{D^*}$, $R_{J/\psi}$, $P_\tau^{D^*}$ and $F_L^{D^*}$ in $B$ decays mediated via $b\,\to\, c\, l\,\nu$ quark level transition deviate significantly from the standard model expectations. The current…

This paper describes a determination of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cb}|$ using the decay $B^0\to D^{*-}\ell^+\nu_\ell$. We perform a combined measurement of this quantity and of the form factors $\rho^2$, $R_1(1)$,…

We study the charged Higgs effects on the decays of $B^{-} \to \tau \bar\nu_{\tau}$ and $\bar B\to P(V) \ell \bar\nu_{\ell}$ with $P=\pi^{+},D^{+}$ and $V=\rho^{+},D^{*+}$. We concentrate on the minimal supersymmetric standard model with…

We report a measurement of the branching fractions for $B^{0} \rightarrow \pi^- \ell^+\nu$ and $B^{0} \rightarrow \rho^-\ell^+\nu$ decays, using charged and neutral $B$ decays with isospin constraints. We find ${\cal B}(B^{0} \rightarrow…

We investigate the decays of the excited $(b\bar q)$ mesons as probes of the short-distance structure of the weak $\Delta B=1$ transitions. These states are unstable under the electromagnetic or strong interactions although their widths are…

The rare B_s-> \phi \ell^+ \ell^- decay is investigated by using the most general model independent effective Hamiltonian for $\ell= \mu, \tau$. The calculated $Br(B_s \rar \phi \mu^+ \mu^-) = 1.92 \times 10^{-6}$ is in consistent with the…

Deviations from the standard model prediction have been observed not only in $b \to c$ charged current interactions but also in $b \to s$ flavor changing neutral current interactions. In particular, the deviation observed in the measured…

We present a search for the decay $B^+ \to \ell^+ \nu_{\ell}$ ($\ell = e,\mu\tau$) in $(458.9 \pm 5.1) \times 10^6$ $B\bar{B}$ pairs recorded with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B-Factory. We search for these B decays in a sample of…

Flavour changing neutral currents are suppressed in the Standard Model, making them a prime avenue to search for new physics. Although several measurements of the decay $B^{0}\to{}K^{\ast{}0}\mu^{+}\mu^{-}$ have shown deviations from the…
