Rare $\vert \Delta c \vert=\vert \Delta u \vert=1$ processes uniquely probe flavor in the Standard Model and beyond from the up-type quark sector. Opportunities to search for BSM physics in charm arise from the severe GIM suppression which…
We analyze the potential of rare charm decays as probes of new physics at a high-luminosity flavor facility operating at the $Z$ pole, such as the FCC-ee or CEPC. In particular, we identify clean null-test observables in $D^0 \to \pi^+…
We study weak radiative $|\Delta c|=|\Delta u|=1$ decays of the charmed anti-triplett ($\Lambda_c$, $\Xi_c^{+}$, $\Xi_c^{0}$) and sextet ($\Sigma_c^{++}$, $\Sigma_c^+$, $\Sigma_c^0$, $\Xi_c^{\prime +}$, $\Xi_c^{\prime 0}$, $\Omega_c$)…
We examine the new physics sensitivity of the rare decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \nu\bar\nu$ which can be accessible at future $Z$-pole machines like FCC-ee and CEPC. We find that the longitudinal polarization of $\Lambda_b$ baryons produced…

We present searches for rare or forbidden charm decays of the form $X_c^+\to h^\pm\ell^\mp\ell^{(\prime)+}$, where $X_c^+$ is a charm hadron ($D^+$, $D^+_s$, or $\Lambda_c^+$), $h^\pm$ is a pion, kaon, or proton, and $\ell^{(\prime)\pm}$ is…
The increasing number of flavour anomalies calls for the investigation of new processes where tensions similar to the observed ones could emerge. Observables sensitive to physics beyond the Standard Model need to be identified. We discuss…

$|\Delta c|=|\Delta u|=1$ processes are unique probes of flavor physics in the up-sector within and beyond the Standard Model (SM). SM tests with rare semileptonic charm meson decays are based on an approximate CP--symmetry, a superior…
We search for rare FCNC charm decays of the form $X_c^+\to h^+\llp$, where $X_c^+$ is a charm hadron, $h$ is a pion, kaon or proton, and $\ell^{(}{'}^{)}$ is an electron or a muon. In the pion and kaon modes, we study both $D^+$ and $D_s^+$…
The observation of anomalies in the charged current $b\rightarrow c\bar{\ell}\nu_{\ell}$ transitions hints the possibility of the existence of new physics beyond the standard model. Inspired by the work done in the beauty quark sector, we…

Polarized $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ decays at the Z pole are shown to be well suited for probing a large variety of New Physics effects. A new observable is proposed, the angular asymmetry between the $\Lambda_b$ spin and photon…
Rare $|\Delta c|=|\Delta u|=1$ transitions into dineutrinos are strongly GIM-suppressed and constitute excellent null tests of the standard model. While branching ratios of $D \to P \,\nu \bar \nu$, $D \to P^+ P^- \, \nu \bar \nu$, $P=\pi,…
