In the paper, we apply the $k_T$ factorization approach to deal with the $B\to K$ transition form factor with tensor current in the large recoil regions. Main uncertainties for the estimation are discussed and we obtain $F_T^{B\to…
B meson rare decays ($B\to K(K^{*})l\bar l$ and $B\to K^*\gamma$) are analyzed in the framework of effective field theory of heavy quarks. The semileptonic and penguin type form factors for these decays are calculated by using the light…
We present the result of lattice QCD calculation of the scalar, vector and tensor form factors for the $B\to K\ell^+\ell^-$ decay, across the full physical range of momentum transfer. We use the highly improved staggered quark (HISQ)…
We present the results of a lattice computation of the form factors for B^0 ->pi^- l^+nu_l decays near zero-recoil. These results will allow a determination of the CKM matrix element |Vub| when measurements of the differential decay rate…
We propose a simple parametrization for the form factors in heavy to light decays which satisfies the heavy quark scaling laws and avoids introducing the explicit "dipole" form. The illustration is provided on the set of lattice data for B…
We examine the exclusive rare decays of $B \to K_{0}^*(1430)\ell\bar{\ell} $ with $K_{0}^*(1430)$ being the p-wave scalar meson and $\ell=\nu,e,\mu,\tau$ in the standard model. The form factors for the $B\to K_{0}^{*}$ transition matrix…
We study the rare decay $B\to K_2^\ast(1430)(\to K\pi)\ell^+\ell^-$ in the Standard Model and beyond. Working in the transversity basis, we exploit the relations between the heavy-to-light form factors in the limit of heavy quark ($m_b\to…
We calculate, for the first time using unquenched lattice QCD, form factors for the rare decay B -> Kll in and beyond the Standard Model. Our lattice QCD calculation utilizes a nonrelativistic QCD formulation for the b valence quarks, the…
We use QCD sum rules to calculate the hadronic matrix elements governing the rare decays $B \to K \ell^+ \ell^-$ and $B \to K^* \ell^+ \ell^-$ induced by the flavour changing neutral current $b \to s$ transition. We also study relations…
This paper gives a brief review on the recent lattice QCD calculations of the B to K/K*l+l- semi-leptonic decay form factors.
We reconsider the QCD predictions for the radiative decay $B\to \gamma \ell \nu_\ell$ with an energetic photon in the final state by taking into account the $1/E_\gamma, 1/m_b$ power-suppressed hard-collinear and soft corrections from…
We compute the Standard Model semileptonic vector and axial-vector form factors for $B_s\to D_s^*$ decay across the full $q^2$ range using lattice QCD. We use the Highly Improved Staggered Quark (HISQ) action for all valence quarks,…
We reanalyze the $B\to M$ tensor form factors in a covariant light-front quark model, where $M$ represents a vector meson $V$, an axial-vector meson $A$, or a tensor meson $T$. The treatment of masses and mixing angles in the $K_{1A,1B}$…
We compare the Standard Model (SM) predictions for the differential branching ratio of the rare $B\to K^*\nu\bar\nu$ decays using $B \to K^*$ form factors obtained from holographic light-front QCD (hLFQCD) and Sum Rules (SR) Distribution…
We present the first analytic ${\cal O}(\alpha_s)$-computation at twist-$1$,$2$ of the $\bar B_{u,d,s} \to \gamma$ form factors within the framework of sum rules on the light-cone. These form factors describe the charged decay $\bar B_u \to…
We point out that current estimates of form factors fail to explain the non-leptonic decays $B \to \psi K(K^{\ast})$ and that the combination of data on the semi-leptonic decays $D \to K(K^{\ast})\ell \nu$ and on the non-leptonic decays $B…
In this paper, we investigate the rare decay $B^0\to K_0^*(1430)\ell^+\ell^-$ with $\ell=(e,\mu,\tau)$ and $B^0\to K_0^*(1430)\nu\bar{\nu}$ induced by the flavor changing neutral current transition of $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-(\nu\bar\nu)$.…
In this article, we take the scalar mesons $K^*_0(1430)$ and $a_0(1450)$ as the conventional two-quark states, and study the $B \to K^*_0(1430), a_0(1450)$ form-factors with the $B$-meson light-cone QCD sum rules, then take those…
