Hadronic form factors for the rare weak transitions $\Lambda_{b}\rightarrow\Lambda^{(*)}$ are calculated using a nonrelativistic quark model. The form factors are extracted in two ways. An analytic extraction using single component wave…
We investigate the exclusive rare $B_c\to D_{(s)}\nu_{\ell}\bar{\nu_{\ell}}$ and $B\to D_{(s)}\ell^+\ell^-$ ($\ell=e,\mu,\tau$) decays within the standard model and the light-front quark model constrained by the variational principle for…
We consider measurements of exclusive rare semi-tauonic $b$-hadron decays, mediated by the $b \rightarrow s \tau^+ \tau^-$ transition, at a future high energy circular electron-positron collider (FCC-$ee$). We argue that the high boosts of…
We present a systematic study of $\Lambda_c^+ \to {\cal B}_q \ell^+ \nu_\ell $ with ${\cal B}_q = (\Lambda, n)$ and $\ell =( e, \mu)$, examining all the possible decay observables based on the homogeneous bag model (HBM) and lattice QCD…
Based on the standard model (SM) of particle physics, we study the decays $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \ell^+ \ell^-$ in light of the available inputs from lattice and the data from LHCb. We fit the form-factors of this decay mode using the…
Form factors of the rare $\Lambda_{b}(\Lambda_{b}^*)\to N\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$ decays are calculated in the framework of the light cone QCD sum rules by taking into account of the contributions from the negative parity baryons. Using the…
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 rare decays $B\to K^{(*)}\ell^+\ell^-$, $B\to K^{(*)}\nu\bar\nu$ and $B_s\to\mu^+\mu^-$ are analyzed in a generic scenario where New Physics effects enter predominantly via $Z$ penguin contributions. We show that this possibility is…
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…
The rare semileptonic Bc-> D_s^* \ell^+ \ell^- decay is studied in the scenario of the universal extra dimension model with a single extra dimension in which inverse of the compactification radius R is the only new parameter. The…
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.…
Two body non-leptonic decays:Lambda_b-->Lambda_c P(V) are investigated. Baryon form factors of the heavy quark effective theory are employed. Form factors for renormalization in full QCD are also considered. We find that contributions of…
We consider the exclusive decays $B \to D^{(*)}\,\ell \bar\nu$ and study the effect of non $V-A$ structures on the observables. We extend the standard model hadronic current by additional right-handed vector as well as left- and…
We study the forward-backward and the CP-violating asymmetries (both time-independent and time-dependent) in rare semileptonic and radiative leptonic B_{d,s}-decays and investigate the sensitivity of these asymmetries to the extensions of…
The experimental information on b --> s l^+ l^- decays has grown enormously during the last couple of years due to BaBar, Belle, CDF and LHCb. Especially, exclusive modes B --> K^(*) l^+ l^-, which have the largest rate and are easily…
The exclusive (B -> K_2 l^+ l^-) decay is studied using the most general, model independent four-fermion interaction. The sensitivity of the ratio of the decay widths when K_2 meson is longitudinally and transversally polarized, the…

We review the status of rare decays and CP violation in extensions of the Standard Model. We analyze the determination of the unitarity triangle and the model-independent constraints on new physics that can be derived from this analysis. We…
We study the nonleptonic two-body weak decays of $\Lambda_b$ by modifying the MIT bag model without introducing new parameters to construct the momentum eigenstates of the baryons. We find that the branching ratios of $\Lambda_b^0 \to…
Recently observed increase of direct CP asymmetry in charm meson nonleptonic decays is difficult to explain within the SM. If this effect is induced by new physics, this might be investigated in other charm processes. We propose to…
