We discuss the implications of the recently reported $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$ anomalies, the lepton flavor non-universality in the $B\to K\ell^+\ell^-$ and $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$. Using two sets of hadronic inputs of form factors, we perform a…

When experimental errors are ignored in an experiment, the subsequent analysis of its results becomes questionable. We develop tests to detect systematic errors in quantum experiments where only a finite amount of data is recorded and apply…

We analyze the unparticle effects on the lepton flavor universality violating ratios in $b\to s$ transition, $R(K^{(*)})$. We concentrate on the vector unparticles which contribute to the relevant Wilson coefficients $C_{9,10}$. New effects…
