In a dependent multi-component system, increasing the deterioration of a part leads to the increased deterioration rate of other parts as well. In these systems, a deterioration limit is usually pre-determined for each part and the…

Semileptonic decay of the $B_c$ meson is studied in the heavy quark limit. The six possible form factors for $B_c \rightarrow B_s (B^0),B_s^* (B^{*0})$ semileptonic decay are determined by two invariant functions. Only one of these…

We have searched for the effective FCNC decays b->s l+l- using an inclusive method. We set upper limits on the branching ratios B(b->s e+e-) < 5.7 10^{-5}, B(b->s mu+mu-) < 5.8 10^{-5}, and B(b->s e+-mu-+) < 2.2 10^{-5} (at 90 %\ C.L.).…

We summarize recent progress in the theory of exclusive rare and semileptonic B decays, focusing on model-independent results. The heavy-to-light form factors parameterizing these decays admit a model-independent description in two distinct…
