In this talk an analysis of the rare exclusive $B$ decays $B\to K\nu\bar\nu$ and $B\to K^{*}\nu\bar\nu$ within and beyond the Standard Model is presented. Combining new form factor determinations from lattice QCD with light-cone sum rule…
Effective Lagrangians are a useful tool for a data-driven approach to physics beyond the Standard Model at the LHC. However, for the new physics scales accessible at the LHC, the effective operator expansion is only relatively slowly…
Recently, we developed a strategy to analyse the B -> pi pi,pi K data. We found that the B -> pi pi measurements can be accommodated in the Standard Model (SM) through large non-factorizable effects. On the other hand, our analysis of the…
We point out that time-dependent CP asymmetries in B_s to K^{*0} \bar K^{*0} decays probe the presence of new physics in b to s transitions with an unprecedented theoretical accuracy. We show that, contrary to the case of B_d to phi K_S, it…
When a new heavy particle is discovered at the LHC or at a future high-energy collider, it will be interesting to study its decays into Standard Model particles using an effective field-theory framework. We point out that the proper…
We present here the CP asymmetries in the decay rate and angular distributions of $\tau\to K_S\pi\nu_\tau$ decays in the Standard Model (SM) and beyond (BSM). The CP asymmetries in the SM are induced by the CP violation in $K^0-\bar{K}^0$…
Effective Field Theories (EFTs) capture effects from heavy dynamics at low energy and represent an essential ingredient in the context of Standard Model (SM) precision tests. This document gathers a number of relevant scenarios for heavy…
While supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model can be fully described in terms of explicitly broken global supersymmetry, this description is only effective. Once related to spontaneous breaking in a more fundamental theory, the…
Motivated by the possibility of ${\cal S}_{\phi K_S}<0$, we study the implications for $B_s$ meson system. In a specific model that realizes ${\cal S}_{\phi K_S}<0$ with large $s$-$b$ mixing, right-handed dynamics and a new CP phase, we…
Over the last two decades, $B \to \pi K$ modes have received a lot of attention. They are particularly interesting since the main contribution to these decays comes from QCD penguin topologies. Furthermore, electroweak penguin amplitudes…
We use the new symmetries in the heavy quark limit to calculate the exclusive B-decays $B \rightarrow K \psi ({\psi}^{\prime})$ and $B \rightarrow K^* \psi ({\psi}^{\prime})$. The estimated decay rates are compared with experimental values.…
We investigate to what extent the recently measured value for a non-vanishing direct CP asymmetry in D0 -> K+ K- and D0 -> pi+ pi- decays can be accommodated in the Standard Model (SM) or extensions with a constrained flavour sector, for…
The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics provides a successful description of elementary particles and their interactions. However, it does not explain phenomena such as the hierarchy problem or the nature of dark matter. Many Beyond the…
Anomalies in the non-leptonic $\bar{B}^0\rightarrow D^{(*)+}K^{(*)-}$ and $\bar{B}^0_s\rightarrow D^{(*)+}_s\pi^-$ decays may be an indication of physics beyond the Standard Model, but the large deviations require strongly coupled new…
We investigate the possibility of contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) to the Higgs couplings, in the light of the LHC data. The work is performed within an interim framework where the magnitude of the Higgs production…
The experimental decay branching ratios of mesons like $B_s\to \ell\bar \ell$ and $B_d\to \ell\bar \ell$ ($\ell=e$ or $\mu$) do not agree completely with the standard model (SM). Cartan's supersymmetry predicts relation of the coupling of…
We study possible effects of supersymmetry (SUSY) in CP asymmetries in non-leptonic $B_{d,s}$ decays in a variety of SUSY flavour models considered in literature. We use both mass insertion and vertex mixing methods to calculate…
With the wealth of new data from the B-factories, b -> d penguin decays become available for study, in addition to their b -> s counterparts that have proven an indespensable tool for the exploration of new-physics effects in flavour…
It has been confirmed experimentally the existence of a mass gap between Standard Model (SM) and eventual Beyond Standard Model (BSM) fields. Therefore, the use of effective approaches to search for fingerprints of New Physics is very…
We discuss new physics search within the minimal supergravity model by using a possible large direct CP asymmetry in $B^{\pm} \to K^{\pm}\phi, K^{0}\pi^{\pm}$ decays and B meson rare decays.
