We present a global analysis of the current $B$-meson flavor anomalies and extend it to the baryonic sector through the decay $\Lambda_b^0 \to \Lambda_c^+(\to \Lambda^0 \pi^+) \tau^-(\to \pi^- \nu_\tau)\bar{\nu}_\tau$. The lepton flavor…
The decay mode $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$ results in the measurement of a large number of related observables by studying the angular distribution of the decay products and is regarded as a sensitive probe of physics beyond the standard model…
We study the three-body baryonic $B\to {\bf B\bar B'}M$ decays with $M$ representing the $\eta$ or $\eta'$ meson. Particularly, we predict that ${\cal B}(B^-\to\Lambda\bar p\eta,\Lambda\bar p\eta')=(5.3\pm 1.4,3.3\pm 0.7)\times 10^{-6}$ or…
We investigate the rare decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ which receives both short and long distance contributions. We estimate the long distance contributions and find them very small. The form factors are obtained from $\Lambda_c \to…
Within the Standard Model, we investigate the weak decays of $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda + \gamma$ and $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda + l^{+} l^{-}$ with the light-cone sum rules approach. The higher twist distribution amplitudes of $\Lambda$ baryon to…
The differential branching fraction of the rare decay $\Lambda^{0}_{b} \rightarrow \Lambda \mu^+\mu^-$ is measured as a function of $q^{2}$, the square of the dimuon invariant mass. The analysis is performed using proton-proton collision…
We discuss two dedicated observables in exclusive B -> K* l+ l- decay that can be used to study effects of physics beyond the standard model, namely the forward-backward asymmetry in the lepton spectrum and the isospin-asymmetry between…
A search for charmless four-body decays of $\Lambda_{b}^{0}$ and $\Xi_{b}^{0}$ baryons with a proton and three charged mesons (either kaons or pions) in the final state is performed. The data sample used was recorded in 2011 and 2012 with…
The form factor of Lambda_b^0 baryons is estimated using 3.46 10^6 hadronic Z decays collected by the DELPHI experiment between 1992 and 1995. Charmed Lambda_c^+ baryons fully reconstructed in the pK-pi+, pK0_S, and Lambda pi+pi+pi- modes,…
We discuss the possibilities of extracting the constraints on New Physics by using the current data on the leptonic and semileptonic decays of pseudoscalar mesons. In doing so we use a general low energy Lagrangian that besides the vector…
The first observation of the decay $B^{+}\rightarrow p \bar{\it{\Lambda}}$ is presented, using proton-proton collision data collected by the LHCb experiment between 2016 and 2018 at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an…
The system of $B^0_s\to D_s^\mp K^\pm$ decays offers a theoretically clean determination of the angle $\gamma$ of the Unitarity Triangle. A corresponding LHCb analysis resulted in a surprisingly large result, which is in tension with other…

The general analysis of the rare Bc->D^*_s l^+ l^- decay is presented by using the most general, model independent effective Hamiltonian. The dependencies of the branching ratios, longitudinal, normal and transversal polarization…
In this work, I suggest a new way for determining the CKM angle $\gamma$ via B decays into a scalar/tensor meson without any hadronic uncertainty. The proposed idea makes profits of the two triangles formed by the $B^\pm\to (D^0,\bar…
The b -> ssdbar and b -> ddsbar decays are highly suppressed in the SM, and are thus good probes of new physics (NP) effects. We discuss in detail the structure of the relevant SM effective Hamiltonian pointing out the presence of nonlocal…
The $B$ meson semileptonic modes to $\rho(770)$ and $a_1 (1260)$ are useful to pin down possible non Standard Model effects. The 4d differential $\bar B \to \rho(\pi \pi) \ell^- \bar \nu_\ell$ and $ \bar B \to a_1 (\rho \pi) \ell^- \bar…
Rare decays $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ and $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda l^{+} l^{-}$ (l= e, $\mu$) are examined. We use QCD sum rules to calculate the hadronic matrix elements governing the decays. The $\Lambda$ polarization in the decays is…
