According to heavy-meson chiral perturbation theory, the vector form factor $f_+(q^2)$ of exclusive semi-leptonic decay $B\to \pi \ell \nu$ is closely related, at least in the soft-pion region (i.e., $q^{2} \sim (m_B-m_{\pi})^2$), to the…
The meson decays $B\to D\tau\nu$ and $B\to D^* \tau \nu$ are sensitive probes of the $b\to c\tau\nu$ transition. In this work we present a complete framework to obtain the maximum information on the physics of $B\to D^{(*)}\tau\nu$ with…

Experimental measurements of $R_{D}$, $R_{D^*}$ and $R_{J/\Psi}$ in $B \to (D,\,D^{\ast})l\nu$ and $B_c \to J/\Psi l \nu$ decays mediated via $b \to c\,l\,\nu$ charged current interactions deviate from standard model prediction by…
We consider leptonic $B^-\to \ell^- \bar\nu_\ell$ and semileptonic $\bar B \to \pi \ell^- \bar\nu_\ell$, $\bar B \to \rho \ell^- \bar\nu_\ell$ decays and present a strategy to determine short-distance coefficients of New-Physics operators…
The experimental information on b --> s l^+ l^- decays has grown enormously during the last couple of years due to BaBar, Belle, CDF and LHCb. Especially, exclusive modes B --> K^(*) l^+ l^-, which have the largest rate and are easily…
We discuss the advantages of combining the experimental bound on Br(B_s -> mu+ mu-) and the measured Br(B -> K l+l-) to get the model independent constraints on physics beyond the Standard Model. Since the two decays give complementary…
In recent times, the charged-current mediated semileptonic $b \to c \tau \bar \nu_\tau$ processes have attracted a lot of attention after the observation of lepton non-universality ratios, $R_{D^{(*)}}$, $R_{J/\psi}$ and the measurements on…
We propose a set of new optimized observables using penguin mediated $\bar{B}_d$ and $\bar{B}_s$ decays: ${\bar B}_{d,s} \to K^{*0} \bar{K}^{*0}$, ${\bar B}_{d,s} \to K^{0} \bar{K}^{0}$, ${\bar B}_{d,s} \to K^{0} \bar{K}^{*0}$ and ${\bar…
