We present precise theoretical predictions for the absolute branching fractions of $\Lambda_c^+ \to \Lambda \ell^+ \nu_\ell\,(\ell=e,\mu)$ decays in the covariant confined quark model. This study is motivated by two recent and accurate…

We present a systematic study of $\Lambda_c^+ \to {\cal B}_q \ell^+ \nu_\ell $ with ${\cal B}_q = (\Lambda, n)$ and $\ell =( e, \mu)$, examining all the possible decay observables based on the homogeneous bag model (HBM) and lattice QCD…

We benefit from a recent lattice determination of the full set of vector, axial and tensor form factors for the $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda^*_c(2595)\tau\bar\nu_\tau$ and $\Lambda^*_c(2625)\tau\bar\nu_\tau$ semileptonic decays to study the…

The electroweak sector of the Standard Model contains three generations of charged leptons $\ell^-\in\{e^-,\mu^-,\tau^-\}$ as exact replicas of each other, except for their Yukawa couplings to the Higgs that determine their masses. The…

Using $4.5\, fb^{-1}$ of $e^+e^-$ collision data collected by the BESIII detector at center-of-mass energies between $4.600$ and $4.699\,GeV$, we search for the semileptonic decays $\Lambda_c^{+} \to \Sigma^{+} \pi^{-} e^+ \nu_e$ and…

It has been shown that the anomalies observed in $\bar B\to D^{(\ast)}\tau\bar\nu_\tau$ and $\bar B\to \bar K\ell^+\ell^-$ decays can be resolved by adding a single scalar or vector leptoquark to the Standard Model, while constraints from…

We present a comprehensive review of purely leptonic and semileptonic decays of $D^{0(+)}$, $D_s^{+}$, and charmed baryons (including $\Lambda_c^{+}$, $\Xi_c$ and $\Omega_c$). The precise studies of these decays help deepen our…

We calculate the $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c \ell \nu$ form factors and decay rates for all possible $b\to c \ell\bar\nu$ four-Fermi interactions beyond the Standard Model, including nonzero charged lepton masses and terms up to order…

The study of lepton flavor universality violation (LFUV) in semitauonic $b$-hadron decays has become increasingly important in light of longstanding anomalies in their measured branching fractions, and the very large datasets anticipated…

Muon-electron universality is tested in $B^0 \to K^{*0} \ \ell^+ \ell^-$ decays, in the dilepton-invariant-mass region above the $\psi(2S)$ resonance. The analysis uses beauty mesons produced in proton-proton collisions recorded by the LHCb…

This article discusses tests of lepton flavour universality that are carried out with the LHCb experiment. The experimental situation of \btosll and $b \to c \ell \nu$ decays is summarised.

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…

We report new measurements of the branching fraction $\cal B(D_s^+\to \ell^+\nu)$, where $\ell^+$ is either $\mu^+$ or $\tau^+(\to\pi^+\bar{\nu}_\tau)$, based on $6.32$ fb$^{-1}$ of electron-positron annihilation data collected by the…

We discuss the possibility of using the observables deduced from the angular distribution of the $B\to D^{(\ast)} \ell\bar{\nu}$ decays to test the effects of lepton flavor universality violation (LFUV). We show that the measurement of even…

A search for the lepton-flavor-violating decay of the tau into three charged leptons has been performed using $91.5 \mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of data collected at an $e^+e^-$ center-of-mass energy of 10.58 GeV with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II…

Motivated by the measurements of $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ transitions, including $R(K)$ and $R(K^*)$, we examine lepton flavour (universality) violation in $B$ decays and its connections to $\mu\to e\gamma$ in generic leptoquark models.…

The most recent measurements of the observables $R_{D^{(*)}}$ are in tension with the Standard Model offering hints of New Physics in $b\rightarrow c \ell \bar{\nu}_{\ell}$ transitions. Motivated by these results, in this work we present an…

Deviations from the standard model prediction have been observed in several leptonic and semileptonic $B$ meson decays to $\tau\nu$ final states mediated via $b \to u$ and $b \to c$ charged current interactions. The measured value of ratio…

The most statistically significant hints for new physics in the flavor sector are discrepancies between theory and experiment in $B$ decays to lepton pairs ($b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$) and a deficit in $1^{\rm st}$ row CKM unitarity (the Cabibbo…

We discuss a number of strategies to reduce the $\mathcal B(B^0_s \to \ell^{+} \ell^{-} \gamma)$ theoretical error, and make such a measurement a new probe of the interactions that are interesting in the light of present-day flavor…
