I explain how various aspects of factorization in exclusive b decays can be studied with mesons having a small decay constant or spin greater than one.
The rare decays $B_{s,d}^0 \to \mu^+\mu^-$ are important probes for new physics beyond the Standard Model. These decays are subjects of studies at the LHC. The ATLAS and CMS collaborations have analyzed the proton-proton collisions data at…
