The flavor-changing neutral current semileptonic decays of $B$ mesons provide an excellent platform for indirectly probing New Physics (NP) beyond the Standard Model (SM). Recent measurements of lepton flavor universality (LFU) ratios such…

We consider three possible scenarios of new physics in B^0_d-\bar{B}^0_d mixing and propose a simple framework for analyzing their effects. This framework allows us to study the CP asymmetry in semileptonic B_d decays ({\cal A}_{SL}) and…

The decay $\Lambda_b^0 \to \Lambda_c^+ p \overline{p} \pi^-$ is observed using $pp$ collision data collected with the LHCb detector at centre-of-mass energies of $\sqrt{s}=$ 7 and 8 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3…

Recently, the CDF and D0 collaborations measured indirect CP violation in Bs -> J/psi phi and found a hint of a signal. If taken at face value, this can be interpreted as a nonzero phase of Bs-Bsbar mixing (beta_s), in disagreement with the…

The most sensitive experimental searches for $D-\bar D$ mixing use $D^0 \to K^+ \pi^-$ decays. It is often assumed that effects of New Physics and, in particular, CP violation, can appear through the mixing, while the $c \to d u \bar s$…

We reemphasize the strong dependence of the branching ratios $B(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu)$ and $B(K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu)$ on $|V_{cb}|$ that is stronger than in rare $B$ decays, in particular for $K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$. Thereby the persistent…

We consider leptonic $B^-\to \ell^- \bar\nu_\ell$ and semileptonic $\bar B \to \pi \ell^- \bar\nu_\ell$, $\bar B \to \rho \ell^- \bar\nu_\ell$ decays and present a strategy to determine short-distance coefficients of New-Physics operators…

In the Standard Model of particle physics, the strength of the couplings of the $b$ quark to the $u$ and $c$ quarks, $|V_{ub}|$ and $|V_{cb}|$, are governed by the coupling of the quarks to the Higgs boson. Using data from the LHCb…

Based on the standard model (SM) of particle physics, we study the decays $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \ell^+ \ell^-$ in light of the available inputs from lattice and the data from LHCb. We fit the form-factors of this decay mode using the…

We investigate the exclusive rare baryonic $\Lambda_{b}\to\Lambda\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ in a family non-universal $Z^{\prime}$ model, which is one of the natural extension of standard model. Using transition form factors, calculated in the…

A method based on flavour SU(3) is proposed for identifying and extracting New Physics (NP) amplitudes in charmless $\Delta S=1$ $B_s$ decays using time-dependent CP asymmetries in these decays and in flavour SU(3) related $\Delta S=0$…

Motivated by a recent Belle~II measurement that suggests an excess in the rare decay $B \to K\, E_{\rm miss}$, and building upon our recent differential decay rate likelihood analysis of the existing experimental information, we investigate…

We study the exclusive decays of $B\to K^{(*)}\ell^+ \ell^-$ by the results in the perturbative QCD with the heavy quark effective theory and lattice calculations. We obtain the form factors for the $B\to K^{(*)}$ transitions in the whole…

New-physics (NP) constraints on first-generation quark-lepton interactions are particularly interesting given the large number of complementary processes and observables that have been measured. Recently, first hints for such NP effects…

In light of the very recent updates on the $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$ measurements from the LHCb and Belle collaborations, we systematically explore here imprints of New Physics in $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^- $ transitions using the language of…

We build a set of new observables using closely related non-leptonic penguin-mediated $B_d$ and $B_s$ decays: ${\bar B}_{d,s}\to K^{*0}\bar{K}^{*0}$, ${\bar B}_{d,s}\to K^{0}\bar{K}^{0}$, ${\bar B}_{d,s}\to K^{0}\bar{K}^{*0}$ and ${\bar…
