An estimate is presented of the production cross section of $B_c$ mesons between threshold and LHC energies using lowest-order perturbation theory and non-relativistic bound state approximation. It is shown that the ratio of the production…
We describe searches for decays of B mesons to the charmless final states eta' eta' K. The data consist of 228 million B Bbar pairs produced in e+ e- annihilation, collected with the BaBar detector at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center.…
Recently, several papers discussed the existence of a low mass leptonic structure. It was suggested that the $\Sigma^{+}$ disintegration: $\Sigma^{+}\to$pP$^{0}$, P$^{0}\to\mu^{-}\mu^{+}$ proceeds through an intermediate particle P$^{0}$…
In a composite model of the weak bosons the excited bosons, in particular the p-wave bosons, are studied. The state with the lowest mass is identified with the boson, which has been discovered recently at the "Large Hadron Collider" at…
We present recent CDF results based on approximately 1 fb$^{-1}$ of $p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrt s = 1.96$ TeV delivered at Fermilab Tevatron. Results shown include the observation of the $B_s$ oscillation frequency, the first observation…
The first observation of the decay of a $B^0$ meson to a purely baryonic final state, $B^0 \to p \bar{p}$, is reported. The proton-proton collision data sample used was collected with the LHCb experiment at center-of-mass energies of 7 and…
The new CDF II measurement of $W$-boson mass shows a 7$\sigma$ deviation from the Standard Model (SM) prediction, while the recent FNAL measurement of the muon $g-2$ shows a 4.2$\sigma$ deviation (combined with the BNL result) from the SM.…
We report a measurement of the first four moments of the hadronic mass distribution in B --> X_c lv decays. The measurements are based on 89 million Upsilon(4S) --> BBbar events where the hadronic decay of one of the B mesons is fully…
Depending on the Higgs-boson and top-quark masses, $M_H$ and $M_t$, the effective potential of the {\bf Standard Model} can develop a non-standard minimum for values of the field much larger than the weak scale. In those cases the standard…
The current experimental status of the searches for the very rare decays $B^0_s \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $B^0 \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-$ is discussed. These channels are highly sensitive to various extensions of the Standard Model,…
The interaction and propagation of anti-B mesons with light mesons, N and Delta baryons is studied within a unitarized approach based on effective models that are compatible with chiral and heavy-quark symmetries. We find several…
In the framework of a QCD relativistic potential model we evaluate the form factors describing the exclusive decays B => \pi l nu and B => K l+ l-. The present calculation extends a previous analysis of B meson decays into light vector…
We report recent results in the search for the rare B meson decays B-->rho gamma and B0-->pi0 pi0. These results are based on 56.4 1/fb collected by the BaBar Collaboration at the SLAC PEP-II e+e- B Factory. We set new 90% confidence level…
The first results on the searches of the Higgs boson appeared this Summer from the LHC and Tevatron groups, and has been recently backed up by the ATLAS and CMS experiments taking data at CERN's LHC. Even though the excitement that this…
We present a search for decays of $B$ mesons to final states with a $b\_1$ meson and a $\rho$ or $K^*(892)$ meson. The search is based on a data sample consisting of 465 million $B\kern 0.18em{\kern -0.18em B}{}$ pairs collected by the…
We evaluate the decay branching ratios of $\chi_{c1}\to PS$, in a quark model parametrization scheme, where $P$ and $S$ stand for pseudoscalar and scalar meson, respectively. An interesting feature of this decay process is that the…
The mass and leptonic decay constants of recently observed two new excited $B_c$ states at LHC are studied within the QCD sum rules. Considering the contributions of the ground and radially excited states, the mass and residues of the…
We report measurements of B-meson decays into two- and three-body final states containing two charmed baryons using a sample of 230 million Y(4S) -> B Bbar decays. We find significant signals in two modes, measuring branching fractions…
The SU(3) simplest little Higgs model in its original framework without the so-called mu term inevitably involves a massless pseudoscalar boson eta, which is problematic for b-physics and cosmological axion limit. With the mu term…
We report the results of the first search for Standard Model and baryon-number-violating two-body decays of the neutral $B$ mesons to $\Lambda^{0}$ and $\Omega^{(*)0}_c$ using 711~${\rm fb^{-1}}$ of data collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$…
