The experimental measurements on flavour physics, in tension with Standard Model predictions, exhibit large sources of Lepton Flavour Universality violation. This note summarises an analysis of the effects of the global fits to the Wilson…
Rare decays of the kind $B\to K^*\mu^+\mu^-$ and $B_s\to \phi\mu^+\mu^-$ are key players for testing the Standard Model. The current experimental data for their decay rates and angular observables show tensions with the theoretical…
The recent updated angular analysis of the $B\to K^*\mu^+\mu^-$ decay by the LHCb collaboration is interpreted by performing a global fit to all relevant measurements probing the flavour-changing neutral current $b\to s\mu^+\mu^-$…
At Moriond 2019, Belle collaboration announced their new measurements on $R_D$ and $R_{D^*}$ which are in agreement with their Standard Model (SM) predictions within $1.2\sigma$. After inclusion of these measurements, the discrepancy…
The updated analysis of the LHCb Collaboration on the lepton flavor violation suggests that the new physics should couple to muons and electrons with comparable magnitudes, resulting in the anomalies in both rare decay channels, $b…
We present a global analysis of the B->K*(->K pi)mu+mu- decay using the recent LHCb measurements of the primary observables P_{1,2} and P'_{4,5,6,8}. Some of them exhibit large deviations with respect to the SM predictions. We explain the…
The rare decays {$B^- \to \tau \bar\nu$}, \mbox{$B \to \tau^+ \tau^-$}, {$b \to X \nu \bar\nu$} and \mbox{$b \to X \tau^+ \tau^-$} all contain third generation leptons in the final state, and hence are sensitive to new physics that couples…
We briefly report on some particular aspects of new physics searches concerning, on the one side, the CKM paradigm and, on the other, the global fit to rare $b\to s \ell\ell$ observables including lepton flavour universality ones. We put…
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…
Leptonic rare decays of $B^0_{s,d}$ mesons offer a powerful tool to search for physics beyond the Standard Model. The $B^0_{s}\to\mu^+\mu^-$ decay has been observed at the Large Hadron Collider and the first measurement of the effective…
The LHCb experiment, bolstered up by the 10^12 b-hadrons to be produced yearly in its interaction region, is an excellent place to study rare B decays. Flavor-changing neutral currents are forbidden at tree level in the Standard Model. They…
A comparative study of the exclusive rare $B_{c}\rightarrow D_{s}^{\ast}\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ ($\ell=\mu, \tau$) decays has been made in the minimal supersymmetric models (MSSM) and the SUSY SO(10) GUT models. In this context, various physical…
In the last decade the CDF experiment at the Tevatron clearly demonstrated that it is possible to study extensively heavy flavour physics in hadron collisions and achieve remarkable results, competitive and complementary to $B$-factories.…

Using the most general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian, the exclusive, rare baryonic (Lambda_b -> Lambda l^+ l^- ~l=\mu,\tau) decay is analyzed. We study sensitivity of the branching ratio and lepton forward-backward…

The $B\to K^*\mu\mu$ decay exhibits deviations with respect to Standard Model expectations and the measurement of the ratio $R_K$ hints at a violation of lepton-flavour universality in $B\to K\ell\ell$ transitions. Both effects can be…
The exclusive (B -> K_2 l^+ l^-) decay is studied using the most general, model independent four-fermion interaction. The sensitivity of the ratio of the decay widths when K_2 meson is longitudinally and transversally polarized, the…
