This year, LHC provided a very stringent bound on Br(Bs->mu+mu-), bringing it closer to the value predicted by the Standard Model (SM). Bs->mu+mu- was believed to be the golden mode at LHCb to find SUSY because a large enhancement was…
Applying the effective Hamilton for $b\rightarrow sl^+l^-,\;(l=e,\;\mu)$ in the framework of minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model with local $B-L$ gauge symmetry, we investigate branching ratios and forward-backward…
We report a study of the suppressed decay $B^{-} \to [K^{+}\pi^{-}]_{D}K^{-}$(and its charge-conjugate mode) at Belle, where $[K^{+}\pi^{-}]_{D}$ indicates that the $K^{+}\pi^{-}$ pair originates from a neutral $D$ meson. A data sample…
As is known from previous studies the lepton number violating decays $K^+\to \pi^- + l^{+}_1 + l^{+}_2$ have good prospects to probe new physics beyond the Standard Model and provide valuable information on neutrino masses and mixing. We…
We analyze the decay $K_L \to \pi^0 \nu \bar \nu$ in a model independent way. If lepton flavor is conserved the final state is (to a good approximation) purely CP even. In that case this decay mode goes mainly through CP violating…
We present a model independent analysis of new-physics contributions to the decays K^+ \to \pi^+ \nu \bar \nu and K_L \to \pi^0 \nu \bar \nu. We parameterize the effects of new physics in these decays by two parameters: r_K and \theta_K,…
Over the next years, the Flavour Physics community will be looking for inconsistencies of the Standard Model (SM) by exploiting new and precise measurements. In these ``indirect new physics'' searches, the key strategy is to concentrate on…
We study the polarized lepton pair forward-backward asymmetries in (B -> K^* l^+ l^-) decay using a general, model independent form of the effective Hamiltonian. We present the general expression for nine double-polarization…
We study some rare decays of $B$ meson involving the quark level transition $b \to q l^+l^- (q=d,s)$ in the scalar leptoquark model. We constrain the leptoquark parameter space using the recently measured branching ratios of $B_{s,d} \to…
The HyperCP collaboration observed three events for the decay Sigma to p mu+ mu-. They suggested that new physics may be required to understand the implied decay rate and the observed dimuon invariant mass distribution. Motivated by this…
Searches are presented for $B_{c}^{+} \to D h^+ h^-$ decays, where $D$ is a charmed meson and $h^{\pm}$ is a charged pion or kaon, using $pp$ collision data collected by the LHCb experiment corresponding to an integrated luminosity of…
We report an updated study of the suppressed decays $B^- \to [K^+\pi^-]_D K^-$ and $B^- \to [K^+\pi^-]_D \pi^-$ where $[K^+\pi^-]_D$ indicates that the $K^+\pi^-$ pair originates from a neutral $D$ meson. A data sample containing 386…
We compute supersymmetric contributions to pion leptonic (\pi_{l2}) decays in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). When R-parity is conserved, the largest contributions to the ratio R_{e/\mu} = \Gamma[ \pi^+ \to e^+…
We update the Standard Model predictions for the rare decays $K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu$ and $K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$. In view of improved limits on $B_s$--$\bar B_s$ mixing we derive a stringent and theoretically clean Standard Model upper…
New limits on couplings $\lambda^i_{jk}{''}$, which break both the baryon number and the $R$--parity, are derived by using a new mechanism that contributes to the neutron-anti-neutron oscillation. The constraints due to proton decay and its…
Motivated by the LHCb measurement of the hyperon decay mode $\Sigma^+\to p\mu^+\mu^-$ and prospects for improvement, we revisit the estimates for the rate and muon forward-backward asymmetry within the standard model and beyond. The…
We report studies of the decay B+- -> D_CP K+-, where D_CP denotes neutral D mesons that decay to CP eigenstates. The analysis is based on a 29.1/fb data sample of collected at the \Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB…
We study the radiative leptonic $D$ meson decays of $D^+_{(s)}\to \l^+\nu_{\l}\gamma$ ($\l=e,\mu,\tau$), $D^0\to \nu\bar{\nu}\gamma$ and $D^0\to \l^+\l^-\gamma$ ($l=e,\mu$) within the light front quark model. In the standard model, we find…
Recently, the LHCb collaboration reported the observation of the decay mode $B_{c}^{-}\rightarrow\overline{B}_{s}^{0}\pi^{-}$ with the largest exclusive branching fraction amongst the known decay modes of all the $B$ mesons. Here we propose…
We critically examine the potential to disentangle Standard Model (SM) and New Physics (NP) in $B \to K^* \mu^+\mu^-$ and $B\to K^* e^+ e^-$ decays, focusing on $(i)$ the LHCb anomaly, $(ii)$ the search for right-handed currents, and…
