We study the branching fractions and the lepton polarization asymmetries of rare $B \to X_s \tau^+ \tau^-$ and $B \to K^{(*)} \tau^+ \tau^-$ modes within the Standard Model and in the Appelquist-Cheng-Dobrescu model, which is a New Physics…

We predict the branching ratios of Z-> e^{\pm} \mu^{\pm}, Z-> e^{\pm} \tau^{\pm} and Z-> \mu^{\pm} \tau^{\pm} decays in the framework of the 2HDM with the inclusion of one and two extra dimensions, by considering that the new Higgs doublet…

We study a set of exclusive decay modes of the Standard Model Higgs boson into a vector meson and a dilepton pair: $h\to V \ell^+ \ell^-$, with $V=\Upsilon, J/\psi,\phi$, and $\ell=\mu, \tau$, determining the decay rates, the dilepton mass…

In anticipation of abundant $B^*$ data samples at high-luminosity heavy-flavor experiments in the future, the tree-dominated semileptonic $\bar{B}^*_{u,d,s} \to P \ell^- \bar{\nu}_\ell$ $(P=D\,,D_s\,,\pi\,,K)$ decays are studied within the…

In extended Higgs models, a discrete symmetry is needed in the quark sector to avoid tree-level flavor-changing neutral currents. However, this is not necessary the case in the lepton sector. We consider a model in which one Higgs couples…
