We explore the semileptonic and nonleptonic decays of doubly heavy baryons $(\Omega_{cc}^ {(*) +}, \Omega_{bb}^ {(*)0}, \Omega_{bc}^ {(*) -}, \Omega_{bc}^ {\prime 0}) $ induced by the $s\to u$ transition. Hadronic form factors are…
Rare flavour changing neutral current decays of strange, charm and beauty hadrons have been instrumental in building up a picture of flavour in the Standard Model. Increasingly precise measurements of these decays allow to search for…
One important task in the field of flavor physics is to over-constrain the CKM matrix. To best extract CKM matrix elements, we need inputs from both experimental data and theoretical calculations. Latest knowledge about the CKM matrix shows…
In this paper, we analyze different decay observables of semileptonic $ B_c$ decays into $(D_(s,d)^((*))){\mu}^+ {\mu}^-$ such as branching ratio, forward-backward asymmetry, polarization fraction and lepton polarization asymmetry in the…
Semileptonic B meson decays induced by $b \to s(d) l^+ l^-$ flavour changing neutral current (FCNC) transitions are very important to probe the quark-flavour sector of the standard model (SM) and also offer a probe to test new physics (NP).…
We provide general effective-theory arguments relating present-day discrepancies in semi-leptonic $B$-meson decays to signals in kaon physics, in particular lepton-flavour violating ones of the kind $K \to (\pi) e^\pm \mu^\mp$. We show that…

Rare and very rare decays of third-generation particles, including $b$-hadrons and $\tau$ leptons, provide sensitive probes of physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). Unlike direct searches limited by collider energies, they probe new…
The pure leptonic or semileptonic character of tau decays makes them a good laboratory to test the structure of the weak currents and the universality of their couplings to the gauge bosons. The hadronic tau decay modes constitute an ideal…
With respect to large samples of $B_c$ mesons expected to be produced at CERN Large Hadron Collider(LHC) and the large branching ratios $Br(B_{c}\to \tau\bar\nu)$ and $Br(B_{c}\to \mu\bar\nu)$, we suggest that $B_c$ purely leptonic decays…
QCD sum rules for the determination of form factors of $\Lambda_b$ and $\Lambda_c$ semileptonic decays are investigated. With a form for the baryonic current appropriate for the limits of the heavy quark symmetries, the different tensor…
The branching fraction $\mathcal{B}(B^0 \to D^{*-}\tau^+\nu_{\tau})$ is measured relative to that of the normalization mode $B^0 \to D^{*-}\pi^+\pi^-\pi^+$ using hadronic $\tau^+ \to \pi^+\pi^-\pi^+(\pi^0)\overline{\nu}_{\tau}$ decays in…
The main purpose of Heavy Flavor experiments is to discover physics beyond the Standard Model, or characterize it, should it be found elsewhere. Thus, current limits on New Physics (NP) are reviewed. New results are presented, some…
In the Standard Model of particle physics, lepton flavour and lepton number are conserved quantities although no fundamental symmetry demands their conservation. I present recent results of searches for lepton flavour and lepton number…
We extend the Standard Model with the general effective Hamiltonian for the quark level transition $c \to s \ell \nu$ with a complete set of four fermion operators including right-handed neutrinos. The current experimental measurements in…
We study the semileptonic $B\to{\bf B\bar B'}L\bar L'$ decays with $\bf B\bar B'$ ($L\bar L'$) representing a baryon (lepton) pair. Using the new determination of the $B\to{\bf B\bar B'}$ transition form factors, we obtain ${\cal B}(B^-\to…

Inspired by recent improved measurements of charm semileptonic decays at BESIII, we study a large set of $D(D_s)$-meson semileptonic decays where the hadron in the final state is one of $D^0$, $\rho$, $\omega$, $\eta^{(\prime)}$ in the case…
