The B_s to mu+ mu- decay plays an outstanding role in tests of the Standard Model and physics beyond it. The LHCb collaboration has recently reported the first evidence for this decay at the 3.5 sigma level, with a branching ratio in the…
$B_s - \bar B_s$ mixing has been measured recently by D0 and CDF. The range predicted in the standard model is consistent with data. However, the standard model central values for $\Delta M_{B_s}$ and also $\Delta M_ {B_d}$ are away from…
We investigate the decay $B_s^0 \rightarrow J/\psi K^+ K^-$ for invariant masses of the $K^+K^-$ pair in the range $1.35<M(K^+K^-)<2$ GeV. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 10.4 fb$^{-1}$ of $p \bar{p}$ collisions…
We compute an array of Standard Model Higgs boson ($\hsm$) signals and backgrounds for a possible upgrade of the Tevatron to $E_{\rm cm}=4\tev$. Taking $\mt\geq 140\gev$, and assuming a total accumulated luminosity of $L=30\fbi$, we find…
A simple relativistic model of heavy-light mesons is applied to the rare decay B -> K* gamma in the standard model. We find Gamma(B -> K* gamma)/Gamma(b -> s gamma)=(17 \pm 4)% and BR(B -> K* gamma)=(4.8 \pm 1.9) \times 10^{-5}(V_cb/.04)^2.…
We study unconventional decays of the top-quark in the framework of SUSY models with spontaneously broken R-parity. In particular we discuss an effective theory which consists of the MSSM plus bilinearly broken R-parity. We demonstrate that…
Pure leptonic and semileptonic rare B decays, $B_s \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $B \to X_s \mu^+ \mu^-$ in the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM), in particular, gluino and neutralino contributions to the decays, are discussed under Br($B…
Based on the full BaBar data sample, we report improved measurements of the ratios R(D(*)) = B(B -> D(*) Tau Nu)/B(B -> D(*) l Nu), where l is either e or mu. These ratios are sensitive to new physics contributions in the form of a charged…
The sensitivity of Standard Model Higgs boson searches at the Tevatron experiments with a mass 135<MH<190 GeV using the channel H->WW->ll+MET (l=e,mu) is discussed. Three new event selections involving Higgs in association with one or two…
Using a $3.19~\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ data sample collected at an $e^+e^-$ center-of-mass energy of $E_{\rm cm}=4.178$ GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the branching fraction of the leptonic decay $D_s^+\to\mu^+\nu_\mu$ to be…
