We consider possible new physics contributions to b\to s l^+ l^- assuming the new physics modifies (chromo)magnetic and electric form factors in b\to s \gamma^* and b\to s g with the same chirality structure as in the standard model.…
The search for New Physics (NP) beyond the Standard Model (SM) has been a central focus of particle physics, including in the context of $B$-meson decays involving $b \to s \ell \ell$ transitions. These transitions, mediated by…
The large data sample accumulated by the Belle experiment at KEKB asymmetric energy $e^+ e^-$ collider provides opportunities to study charmonia (bottomonia) and charmonium-like (bottomonium-like) exotic particles. In this review, we report…
In the context of the recently measured non-leptonic decays $B_{d}\to K^{*0}\bar{K}^{*0}$ and $B_{s}\to K^{*0}\bar{K}^{*0}$ we analyse the anatomy of the $L_{VV}$ observable that compares the longitudinal components of $B_s \to VV$ and $B_d…
Some of the recent measurements in the neutral current sector $b\rightarrow s l^+l^-$ ($l=e$ or $\mu$) as well as in the charged current sector $b \rightarrow c \tau \bar{\nu}$ show significant deviations from their Standard Model…
The semi-leptonic baryonic $b\to s$ decay, $\Lambda_b\rightarrow \Lambda \ell^+\ell^-$, has been studied and new angular observables and asymmetries have been proposed which can test the presence of new physics beyond the standard model.
Using the general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian, the general expressions of the longitudinal, normal and transversal polarization asymmetries for (l^-) and (l^+) and combinations of them for the exclusive (B -> K l^+…
The recent observations of sizable transverse fractions of B-> phi K* are strongly contrary to the Standard Model expectation. We analyze all possible new-physics four-quark operators. We find that two classes of new-physics operators could…
We consider the new-physics (NP) solution to the polarization puzzle in B -> phi K* decays. We note that any such solution must reproduce the data in B -> phi Ks, where there are disagreements with the standard model in CP-asymmetry…
We examine the T-odd transverse lepton and $\Lambda$ polarizations in the baryonic decays of $\Lambda_b\to\Lambda l^+l^- (l=e ,\mu)$ to study the T violating effects. We show that the lepton polarizations are suppressed but the $\Lambda$…
We succeed in reproducing the $\ell=1$ $B$ mesons, $B_1(5720)$, $B_2^*(5745)$, and $B_{s2}^*(5839)$ that are recently reported by D0 and CDF, by using our semirelativistic quark potentila model, which also succeeded in predicting the mass…
Belle II measurement of the branching fraction for $B^{+} \to K^{+} \nu \bar{\nu}$ shows a $2.7\sigma$ excess over the Standard Model prediction and motivates new-physics explanations such as axion-like particles, Higgs-like scalars, or…
One of the main indications for New Physics in rare $B$-decays is deduced from the tension between experimental and Standard Model predictions of the angular analysis of the $B^0 \to K^{*0} \mu^+\mu^-$ decay. There are however possible…
The B-meson system offers interesting probes for the search of physics beyond the Standard Model. After addressing possible signals of new-physics contributions to the B -> phi K and B -> pi K decay amplitudes, we focus on the data for…
Using the most general, model independent effective Hamiltonian, the branching ratio of the (B -> K^* l^+ l^-) decay, when K^* meson is longitudinally or transversally polarized, is presented. The dependence of the branching ratio on the…
The recent anomalies in $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ transitions could originate from some New Physics beyond the Standard Model. Either to confirm or to rule out this assumption, more tests of $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ transition are needed. Polarized…
Several key observables of the high-precision physics program at future lepton colliders will critically depend on the knowledge of the absolute machine luminosity. The determination of the luminosity relies on the precise knowledge of some…
The recent measurement of $R_{K^*}$ is yet another hint of new physics (NP), and supports the idea that it is present in $b\to s\mu^+\mu^-$ decays. We perform a combined model-independent and model-dependent analysis in order to deduce…
We point out that the decays of B mesons into a vector meson and an axial-vector meson can distinguish between left and right-handed polarized mesons, in contrast to decays into two vector mesons. Measurements in B0 -> D*-a1+ are proposed…
We summarize recent progress in the theory of exclusive rare and semileptonic B decays, focusing on model-independent results. The heavy-to-light form factors parameterizing these decays admit a model-independent description in two distinct…
