The most common decay used for measuring 2beta_s, the phase of Bs-Bsbar mixing, is Bs -> J/psi phi. This decay is dominated by the colour-suppressed tree diagram, but there are other contributions due to gluonic and electroweak penguin…
For about twenty years, $B\to\pi K$ decays are in the focus of $B$-decay studies. We show that a correlation between the CP asymmetries of $B^0_d\to\pi^0K_{\rm S}$ reveals a tension with the Standard Model. Should it be due to New Physics,…
Semileptonic decays of $B$ mesons to the tau lepton, despite of experimental difficulties, are of great importance. In particular they are sensitive probes of models with extended Higgs sectors. The results of studies of semitauonic B…
We discuss about a possibility of large electroweak penguin contribution in B -> K pi and pi pi from recent experimental data. The experimental data may be suggesting that there are some discrepancies between the data and theoretical…
Charmless 3-body decays of B mesons are studied in a simple model based on the factorization approach. We have identified two distinct sources of nonresonant contributions: a small contribution from the tree transition and a large source of…
Using the next-to-leading order low energy effective Hamiltonian for $\Delta B=1$ transitions, the effects of electroweak penguin operators in some two-body decay modes of $B_s^0$ meson are estimated in the Standard Model (SM). We find that…
The penguin mediated processes $b\rightarrow s g$ and $b\rightarrow s l^+l^-$ are studied. In the Standard Model, for the leptonic modes improvement in experimental limits will put strigient bounds on the top mass, where the present limit…
Rare $B$, $D$ and $K$ decays provide interesting probes of the Standard Model (SM), with a potential sensitivity to New Physics (NP) higher than other, more common, decays. Their experimental measurement is challenging, and their…
We report results from five analyses based on data taken with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric e+e- collider. Included are branching fraction measurements for many B-meson decays involving eta, eta', omega, phi or a0 mesons and…
Recent results of baryonic B decays from Belle are reported. This study is done by a 78 fb$^{-1}$ data sample, consisting of $85.0 \pm 0.5$ million $B\bar{B}$ pairs, collected by the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric energy $e^+e^-$…
This article summarizes recent developments in $B\to D^{(\ast)}\tau\nu$ decays. We explain how to extract the tau lepton's production properties from the kinematics of its decay products. The focus is on hadronic tau decays, which are most…
In this paper we present first LHCb results on charmless charged two- and three-body $B$ meson decays. In particular, using the first picobarn of integrated luminosity, LHCb observed the $B^{0}\rightarrow K^{+}\pi^{-}$ and $B^{+}\rightarrow…
This talk contains a short overview of the history of the interplay of the weak and the strong interaction and CP-violation. It describes the phenomenology and the basic physics mechanisms involved in the Standard Model calculations of…
Isospin and U-spin symmetries are useful approximations for studying penguin dominance in $B$ meson decays to three kaons, $B\to KK\bar K$. We point out certain subtleties in treating these decays in these approximations. Resulting…
Recent results on rare kaon and pion decays are reviewed and prospects for future experiments are discussed
Recent experimental data on the radiative decays B -> V gamma, where V is a light vector meson, find small isospin violation in B -> K^* gamma while isospin asymmetries in B -> rho gamma are of order 20%, with large uncertainties. Using…
The B --> rho0 rho0 decay mode is searched for in a data sample of about 227 million Upsilon(4S) --> B Bbar decays collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric B factory at SLAC. No significant signal is observed, and an upper…
I review the recent progress on the perturbative QCD approach to exclusive $B$ meson decays, discussing the comparison of collinear and $k_T$ factorizations, the CP asymmetry in the $B^0\to\pi^+\pi^-$ decay, penguin enhancement, the…
Presented are selected results of semileptonic B decays at BaBar. Two measurements of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix element $|V_{cb}|$ are reported. One using moments of the hadronic-mass spectrum in inclusive $\bar{B} \to X_{c}…
Recent experimental results from CLEO indicate that strong penguin processes are remarkably robust. These results have spurred a variety of theoretical efforts which will be briefly review here. In particular we will discuss exclusive…
