The radiative decay b to s gamma is examined in the Standard Model and in nine classes of models which contain physics beyond the Standard Model. The constraints which may be placed on these models from the recent results of the CLEO…
I briefly review the conceptual developments that led to the Standard Model and discuss some of its remarkable qualitative features. On the way, I draw attention to several puzzling aspects that are beyond the reach of our present…
Phenomenological implications of the anomalous baryon current in the Standard Model are discussed, in particular neutrino-photon interactions at finite baryon density. A pedagogical derivation of the baryon current anomaly is given.
We illustrate some tests which may shed light on physics beyond the Standard Model. Some of them are especially sensitive to possible signals of new physics.

There are reasons to believe that the Standard Model is only an effective theory, with new Physics lying beyond it. Supersymmetric extensions are one possibility: they address some of the Standard Model's shortcomings, such as the…
Top physics provides a fertile ground for new-physics searches. At present, most top observables appear to be in good agreement with the respective Standard Model predictions. However, in the case of decay modes that are suppressed in the…
These lectures review some of the progress made in the quantitative understanding of B decays. The emphasis here is on applications of QCD using perturbative and non-perturbative techniques. In some cases, however, phenomenological models…
In this proceeding we will review the current theoretical status of rare $B$ decays. These decays are indeed excellent indirect probes for New Physics searches, and in the current situation where no new states have been directly observed at…
Many sources of new physics can lead to shifts in the Standard Model predictions for cross sections and asymmetries at the NLC below their direct production thresholds. In this talk we discuss some of the tools that are useful for…
The ability of present and future experiments to test the Standard Model in the $B$ meson sector is described. We examine the loop effects of new interactions in flavor changing neutral current $B$ decays and in $Z\to b\bar b$,…
It is generally believed that the decay mode $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$ is one of the best modes to search for physics beyond the standard model. The angular distribution enables the independent measurement of several observables as a function…
General expressions for the double-lepton polarizations in the (B -> K l^+ l^-) decay are obtained, using model independent effective Hamiltonian, including all possible interactions. Correlations between the averaged double-lepton…
