Rare two-body decays of the top quark into a neutral bottom-quark meson plus an up- or charm-quark: $t\to {\overline B}^0+ u, c$; $t\to {\overline B}^0_{s}+ c,u$; and $t \to \Upsilon(nS)+ c,u$, are studied for the first time. The…

The large value of the top quark mass implies that the rare top decays $t \rightarrow b W^+ Z, s W^+ Z$ and $d W^+ Z$, and $t \rightarrow c W^+ W^-$ and $u W^+ W^-$, are kinematically allowed decays so long as $m_t \ge m_W + m_Z + m_{d_i}…

With the potential prospects of the ${\Upsilon}(1S)$ data samples at the running LHC and upcoming SuperKEKB, the ${\Upsilon}(1S)$ ${\to}$ $B_{c}{\rho}$ weak decays are studied with the pQCD approach. It is found that (1) the lion's share of…

We study the angular distribution of the charged lepton in the top-quark decay into a bottom quark and a W boson which subsequently decays into \ell\nu_{\ell}, when a hard gluon is radiated off. The absorptive part of the t \to bWg decay…

We calculate the rate for $\Upsilon$ decay into a pair of bottom squarks as a function of the masses of the bottom squark and the gluino. Data from decays of the $\Upsilon$ states could provide significant new bounds on the existence and…

The heaviness of the top quark makes its 2-body decay mode $t \to bW^+$ to be dominant, at such level that hardly any other decay mode reaches a detectable branching ratio (BR) within the SM. Here we study the decay $t \to bW^+\ell^-\ell^+$…
