We calculate radiative corrections to the light-cone sum rule for the semileptonic form factor in $B\to\pi e\nu$ decays and thus remove the major uncertainty in determining the CKM mixing angle $|V_{ub}|$ by this method. We discuss the…
The growing experimental indication of Lepton Flavour Universality Violation (LFUV) both in charged- and neutral-current semileptonic B-decays, has triggered many theoretical interpretations of such non-standard phenomena. Focusing on…
The importance of rare $K$ decays especially in the context of a kaon unitarity triangle (KUT) is emphasized. The decay $K_L \to \pi^0 \nu \bar \nu$ is theoretically very clean but experimentally extremely challenging. The Standard Model…
