In the framework of nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) factorization, we compute both the polarized and the unpolarized decay widths for the processes $\eta_b(\chi_{bJ})\to J/\psi J/\psi$, accurate up to next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) in…

We consider the constraint of $B_s-\bar{B}_s$ mass difference, $\Delta m_s$, on an MSSM scenario with large flavor mixing. Even with this constraint, we show that a large deviation from the SM in CP asymmetries of $B_s \to KK$ decays is…
