The strangeness-changing ($\Delta S = 1$) weak baryon-baryon interaction is studied through the nonmesonic weak decay of double-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei. Besides the usual nucleon-induced decay $\Lambda N \to N N$ we discuss novel…
Rare decays are flavour changing neutral current processes that are loop-suppressed in the Standard Model (SM). New particles in SM extensions can therefore give significant contributions, modifying branching fractions and angular…
We present a general analysis of the lepton polarizations in the rare Bs ->\gamma \ell^+ \ell^- decays by using the most general model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian. The sensitivity of the longitudinal, transverse and normal…
Recently hints of lepton flavor non-universality emerged when the BaBar Collaboration observed deviations from the standard model predictions in $R(D^{(*)}) \equiv {\cal B}({\bar B} \to D^{(*)+} \tau^- {\bar\nu}_\tau) / {\cal B}({\bar B}…

Rare inclusive $B$ decays such as $\bar{B}\to X_{s(d)} \ell^+\ell^-$ are interesting probes for physics beyond the Standard Model. Due to the complementarity to their exclusive counterparts, they might shed light on the anomalies currently…
An analysis of the decay $\Lambda_b \to J/\psi(\to\mu^+\mu^-)\Lambda(\to p \pi^-)$ decay is performed to measure the $\Lambda_b$ polarization and three angular parameters in data from pp collisions at $\sqrt{s} =$ 7 and 8 TeV, collected by…

Deviations from the standard model prediction have been observed in several leptonic and semileptonic $B$ meson decays to $\tau\nu$ final states mediated via $b \to u$ and $b \to c$ charged current interactions. The measured value of ratio…
In a covariant quark-diquark model, we investigate the rare decay of $\Lambda_b \rightarrow n l^+ l^-$ and $\Lambda_b \rightarrow n \gamma$ in the Bethe-Salpeter equation approach. In this model the baryons are treated as bound states of a…
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 physics potential for $b$-baryon decays has been relatively unexplored until the advent of the LHC, and as such important questions still exist about their fundamental properties, such as whether their decays exhibit $C\!P$ violation.…
We investigate the $\Lambda_c \to \Lambda \ell^{+} \nu_\ell$ decay with a focus on potential new physics (NP) effects in the $\ell = \mu$ channel. We employ an effective Hamiltonian within the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field…
We study the four-body exclusive semileptonic baryonic $\bar B$ decays of $B^-\to p\bar p \ell^- \bar\nu_{\ell}$ ($\ell=e,\mu,\tau$) in the standard model. We find that their decay branching ratios are about $(1.0, 1.0,0.5)\times 10^{-4}$,…
The increasing number of flavour anomalies motivates the investigation of new processes where tensions similar to the observed ones may emerge. It is necessary to identify observables sensitive to physics beyond the Standard Model. The…
