We briefly review the status of rare radiative and semileptonic $b \to s (\gamma, \ell^+ \ell^-)$, ($\ell=e,\mu$) decays. We discuss possible signatures of new physics in these modes and emphazise the role of the exclusive channels. In…
We study exclusive $B_s$ decays to final states with $\eta$ and $\eta^\prime$, induced by the rare $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ and $b \to s \nu \bar \nu$ transitions. Differential decay rates and total branching fractions are predicted in the…

We analyze the baryonic semilepton decay $\Lambda_{b} \rightarrow$ $\Lambda \mu^{+} \mu^{-}$ in the scalar leptoquark models with $X(3,2,7/6)$ and $X(3,2,1/6)$ states, respectively. We also discuss the effects of this two NP models on some…

A search for the charmless baryonic decay $B^+\to \bar{\Lambda} p\bar{p}p$ is performed using proton-proton collision data recorded by the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 5.4~$\text{fb}^{-1}$. The branching…
Inclusive $H_b \to X_s \, \gamma$ decays, with $H_b$ a beauty baryon, are treated exploiting an expansion up to the third order in the inverse of the $b$ quark mass $m_b$ and to LO in $\alpha_s$, keeping the dependence on the hadron spin.…

We examine the exclusive rare decays of $B \to K_{0}^*(1430)\ell\bar{\ell} $ with $K_{0}^*(1430)$ being the p-wave scalar meson and $\ell=\nu,e,\mu,\tau$ in the standard model. The form factors for the $B\to K_{0}^{*}$ transition matrix…
