We investigate the rare baryonic exclusive decays of $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda l^+ l^- (l=e,\mu,\tau)$ with polarized $\Lambda $. Under the approximation of the heavy quark effective theory (HQET), in the standard model we derive the…
We present a study of the rare baryonic decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \tau^+ \tau^-$ as a probe of new physics (NP) coupled preferentially to third-generation fermions. Within the Standard Model, we evaluate the branching ratio and the…
Recently, several indications of lepton non-universality observables have been perceived in semileptonic $B$ meson decay processes, both in the neutral-current ($b \to s ll $) and charged-current ($b \to c l \bar \nu_l$) transitions.…
We point out new ways to search for charmless baryonic B decays: baryon pair production in association with $\eta^\prime$ is very likely as large as or even a bit larger than two body $K\pi/\pi\pi$ modes. We extend our argument, in weaker…
Several baryons containing a heavy b-quark have been discovered. The decays of these states provide new platform for testing the standard model (SM). We study $CP$ violation in SM for charmless two-body decays of the flavor $SU(3)$…
We analyze patterns from CP-violating new physics (NP) in hadronic and semileptonic rare charm $\vert \Delta c \vert=\vert \Delta u\vert=1$ transitions. Observation of direct CP-violation in hadronic decays, as in $\Delta A_{\text{CP}}$,…
Indirect searches, and in particular rare decays, have proven to be a fruitful field to search for New Physics beyond the Standard Model. While the down-quark sector (B and K) have been studied in detail, less attention was devoted to charm…
We present the first observation of the $\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} \mu^{+} \nu_{\mu}$ decay and present measurements of the branching fraction ratios of the $\Omega_{c}^{0} \to \Omega^{-} \ell^{+} \nu_{\ell}$ decays compared to the…
The New Physics (NP) effects are studied in the rare baryonic decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda (\to p\pi^-)\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$, with unpolarized $\Lambda_b$ using most general model independent approach by introducing new axial(vector),…
Using 29.1fb-1 of data accumulated at the Upsilon(4S) with the Belle detector at KEKB, we have studied the decay modes B0bar->Lambda_c+ pbar pi+pi-, B- -> Lambda_c+ pbar pi-, and B0bar ->Lambda_c+ pbar. We report branching fractions of…
A search for the nonresonant $\Lambda_c^+ \to p \mu^+ \mu^-$ decay is performed using proton-proton collision data recorded at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4…
Motivated by recent experimental results on charm physics we investigate implications of the updated constraints of new physics in rare charm meson decays. We first reconsider effects of the MSSM in $c\to u \gamma$ constrained by the recent…
I explore the possibility of using heavy meson decays as probes for flavour changing neutral transitions (FCNC) $c\to u\gamma$ and $c\to ul^+l^-$. In the standard model, these are the most frequent FCN transitions among the quarks with…
We propose two different and complementary observables for singling out possible signals of physics beyond the standard model in the semi-leptonic decays $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c \ell{\bar \nu}_{\ell}$, both with the $\tau$ lepton and with…
This paper presents the results of searches for the flavor-changing neutral current, lepton-number-violating and lepton-flavor-violating processes in the charm mesons decays. Recent results from charged $D$ mesons decays to final states…
It is demonstrated that charm is systematically undercounted in various experiments. Via a process of elimination, $B(D^0 \rightarrow K^- \pi^+ )$ is identified as the culprit. It calibrates essentially all charmed meson production and…
Non-leptonic two-body weak decays of baryons are an important tool to probe the combined charge-conjugation--parity symmetry (CP) violation. We explain why the decays of strange baryons provide complementary information to the decays of…
We study the semileptonic decays ${\bf B_c} \to {\bf B_n} \ell^+ \nu_{\ell}$ where ${\bf B_{c(n)}}$ is the anti-triplet-charmed (octet) baryon with the $SU(3)_f$ flavor symmetry and helicity formalism. In particular, we present the decay…
We study the effects of models with a warped extra dimension on rare charm decays. While the new degrees of freedom in these models are bounded above a few TeV, they can leave signatures in rare charm decays with their tiny Standard Model…
A large amount of data on hadronic two body weak decays of anti-triplet charmed baryons $T_{c\bar 3}$ to an octet baryon $T_8$ and an octet or singlet pseudoscalar meson $P$, $T_{c \bar 3} \to T_8 P$, have been measured. The SU(3) flavor…
