The lepton flavor universality violating (LFUV) measurements $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$ in $B$ meson decays can be accounted for in non-universal $Z'$ models. We constrain the couplings of these $Z'$ models by performing a global fit to correlated…
We re-consider recent measures of $R_{K}$ and $R_{K^*}$, now compatible with the Standard Model expectations, as well as the results for the process $\text{BR}(B_s \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-)$ alongside earlier determinations of…
In contrast with $B^0-\bar B^0$, $B_s-\bar B_s$ mixing where the standard model (SM) contributions overwhelm that of new physics beyond standard model (BSM), a measured relatively large $D^0-\bar D^0$ mixing where the SM contribution is…

We examine the new physics sensitivity of the rare decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \nu\bar\nu$ which can be accessible at future $Z$-pole machines like FCC-ee and CEPC. We find that the longitudinal polarization of $\Lambda_b$ baryons produced…
We study the decays $B\to D^{(\ast)}\tau\nu_{\tau}$ in light of the available data from BABAR, Belle and LHCb. We divide our analysis into two parts: in one part we fit the form-factors in these decays directly from the data without adding…
Including the recent preliminary results of BaBar and BELLE experiments, we update the currently allowed intervals for various CKM parameters: $\bar\rho$, $\bar\eta$, $\sin2\beta$, $\sin2\alpha$, $\sin^2\gamma$. We also update the SM…
We perform a global analysis of exclusive hadronic tau decays into one and two mesons using the low-energy limit of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory up to dimension six, assuming left-handed neutrinos. A controlled theoretical…

The Belle-II experiment has recently reported the first measurement of $B^+ \to K^+ \nu\bar{\nu}$ decay which exceeds the Standard Model prediction by approximately 2.7$\sigma$. The deviation may indicate the presence of new physics beyond…

We propose measurements of weighted differences of the angular observables in the rare decays $B \to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$. The proposed observables are very sensitive to the difference between the Wilson coefficients $\mathcal{C}_9^{(e)}$ and…
