$B$-physics is one of the most promising windows to find new physics in the flavor sector. One key ingredient to these searches are precise theoretical predictions derived from the Standard Model. Focusing at the nonperturbative QCD…
This contribution illustrates a new search for the flavor-changing neutral-current decay ${B^+ \to K^+ \nu \bar \nu}$ performed by the Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB asymmetric-energy electron-positron collider. In this study, a…
In this talk, I present new results [1] obtained from QCD spectral sum rules (QSSR), on the bag constant parameters entering in the analysis of the B^0_{(s)}-\bar B^0_{(s)} mass-differences. Taking the average of the results from the…
We make use of the formalism developed in Ref. [1], and calculate the chargino mediated baryogenesis in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. The formalism makes use of a gradient expansion of the Kadanoff-Baym equations for mixing…
In this short presentation I emphasize the increased importance of kaon flavour physics in the search for new physics (NP) that we should witness in the rest of this decade and in the next decade. The main actors will be the branching…
Recently, the KOTO experiment at J-PARC has observed three anomalous events in the flavor-changing rare decay $K_L \to \pi^0 \nu \bar\nu$, which indicates that the corresponding branching ratio is almost two orders of magnitude larger than…
We present a search for the rare flavour-changing neutral-current decay $B^{-}\to K^{-} \nu \bar{\nu}$ based on a sample of $(86.9 \pm 1.0) \times 10^{6}$ $\Upsilon (4S) \to $B\bar{B}$ events collected by the BABAR experiment at the SLAC…
The successful explanation of fermion mixing and of the fermion mass hierarchy by the Dualized Standard Model (DSM) scheme is based on the premises of a fermion mass matrix rotating in generation space with changing scales at a certain…
In the standard model (SM), the CP violation is introduced through a single phase in the CKM matrix. The neutral kaon system is one of the most precise channels to test how the SM theory describes the experiment data such as $\epsilon_K$…
We report the results of a search for the flavor-changing neutral current process b --> d gamma using a sample of 275 million B meson pairs accumulated by the Belle detector at KEKB. We find no significant signal for the exclusive decays B-…
We study $b \to s \ell_1^+ \ell_2^-$ transitions, both for the lepton flavour conserving $\ell_1=\ell_2$ and violating case $\ell_1 \neq \ell_2$, in a minimal extension of the Standard Model proposed in [1]. In this framework, the Standard…
In our recent attempt to explain flavor hierarchies [1], a gauged SU(2) flavor symmetry acting on left-handed fermions provides a ground to introduce three independent rank-one contributions to the Yukawa matrices: a renormalizable one for…
The LHCb collaboration has recently presented their result on R_K = BR(B+ -> K+ mu+ mu-)/ BR(B+ -> K+ e+ e-) for the dilepton invariant mass bin m_{ll}^2 = 1-6 GeV^2 (l = mu, e). The measurement shows an intriguing 2.6 sigma deviation from…
We present lattice results for the isovector unpolarized parton distribution with nonperturbative RI/MOM-scheme renormalization on the lattice. In the framework of large-momentum effective field theory (LaMET), the full Bjorken-$x$…
We present a first test of heavy quark spin-flavour symmetries in matrix elements for semi-leptonic decays \bar B to D l\bar\nu and \bar B to D^* l\bar\nu. We show that O(1/m_Q) corrections are small at masses around the charm for form…
We present an analysis of the rare exclusive $B$ decays $B\to K\nu\bar\nu$ and $B\to K^{*}\nu\bar\nu$ within the Standard Model (SM), in a model-independent manner, and in a number of new physics (NP) models. Combining new form factor…
We discuss how the combined analysis of $B\to K\nu\bar\nu$ and $B\to Kl^+l^-$ can provide us with new physics tests practically free of form factor uncertainties. Residual theory errors are at the level of several percent. This study…
The decay $B^{\pm}\to DK^{\pm}$ followed by the subsequent decay of the $D$ meson into final states involving a neutral kaon can be used to determine the CKM angle $\gamma$. We study CP violation effects due to mixing and decay of the final…
Neutral B meson mixing matrix elements and B meson decay constants are calculated. Static approximation is used for b quark and domain-wall fermion formalism is employed for light quarks. The calculations are done on 2+1 flavor dynamical…
Recent results from the LHC's first run have revealed intriguing departures from lepton flavour universality in the semi-leptonic decays of $B$-mesons. We discuss the complementary role that rare kaon decays can provide in testing new…
