In the standard model the two-body charmless hadronic $B_c$ meson decays can occur via annihilation diagrams only. In this work, we studied the $B_c \to PP, PV/VP,VV$ decays by employing the perturbative QCD (pQCD) factorization approach.…
We report on the search for the rare decays $B^+ \to D^{(*)+} K^0_{s}$ in approximately 226 million $Y(\rm 4S)\to b\bar{B}$ decays collected with the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy $B$ factory at SLAC. We do not observe any…
We calculate the contributions to the rare B-decays, $B \to X_{s,d} \nu \bar \nu$, $B_{s,d} \to l^+l^- $ from the unit-charged technipions. Within the considered parameter space we find that: (a) the enhancements to the branching ratios in…
We study the effect of scalar leptoquarks on some rare decays of $B_s$ mesons involving the quark level transition $b\rightarrow s$ $l^{+} l^{-}.$ In particular we consider the decays $B_{s} \rightarrow \mu^{+} \mu^{-}$, $\bar B_d^0 \to X_s…
Using a sample of 471 million BBbar events collected with the BaBar detector, we study the sum of seven exclusive final states B->X_s(d) gamma, where X_s(d) is a strange (non-strange) hadronic system with a mass of up to 2.0GeV/c^2. After…
We calculate the branching ratios of $B_{s,d}\to \gamma \gamma$ decay in the sequential fourth generation model. We find that the theoretical values of the branching ratios, ${\rm BR}(B_{s}\to\gamma\gamma)$, including the contributions of…
Some semileptonic weak decays of vector mesons are considered in the framework of the most popular quark models. The predicted branching ratios are unfortunately too small to make a study of these decays realistic at meson factories under…
Using the light-front quark model, we calculate the transition form factors, decay rates, and longitudinal lepton polarization asymmetries for the exclusive rare $B_s\to (K,\eta^{(\prime)})(\ell^+\ell^-,\nu_{\ell}\bar{\nu_{\ell}}$…
We present first theoretical predictions for various observables related to the $\bar B_d \to \mu^+ \mu^- e^+ e^-$ decay within the framework of the Standard Model. Our study encompasses the branching ratios, differential distributions, and…
The recent observation of the mass difference in $B_s$ system seems to be not in complete agreement with the corresponding standard model value. We consider the model with an extra vector like down quark to explain this discrepancy and…
We examine the rare decays $B\to X_s\tau^+\tau^-$ and $B_s\to\tau^+\tau^- \gamma$ in the framework of technicolor with scalars. The contributions from both the neutral and charged scalars predicted in this model are evaluated. We find that…
We study the four-body semileptonic baryonic decay of $B^-\to \Lambda\bar p\nu\bar \nu$ in the standard model. We find that the decay branching ratio is $(7.9\pm 1.9)\times 10^{-7}$. Similar to the rare decays of $B^-\to K^{(*)-}\nu\bar…
We report the first lattice QCD calculation of the form factors for the standard model tree-level decay $B_s\to K \ell\nu$. In combination with future measurement, this calculation will provide an alternative exclusive semileptonic…
We extend the standard model by adding an extra generation of isosinglet up- and down-type quark pair which engage in weak interactions only via mixing with the three ordinary quark families. It is shown that the generalized $4\times 4$…
Systematic analysis of the high recoil decay channels of the B-meson, two body mesonic decay channels in particular. For decays involving D-mesons, all experimentally observed rates are in reasonable accord with our calculations. Noticeable…
We have systematically investigated the semi-inclusive B decays $B\to MX$, which are manifestations of the quark decay $b \to Mq$, within a framework inspired by QCD-improved factorization. These decays are theoretically clean and have…
Within the perturbative QCD approach and ignoring the contributions of long distance and subleading penguin loops, we investigate $\bar B^0 \to D^0 \mu^+\mu^-$ decay in the large recoiling kinematic region in the Standard Model. At the tree…
We study the $B$ meson radiative decay $B \to X_s \gamma$ in the vector quark model. Deviation from the Standard Model arises from the non-unitarity of the charged current KM matrix and related new FCNC interactions. We establish the…

We investigate the effect of scalar leptoquarks and family non-universal $Z^\prime$ boson on the rare leptonic decays of $B_{s, d}^*$ mesons, mediated by the FCNC transitions $b \to (d, s) l^+ l^-$. They are sensitive to a variety of new…
