We discuss how the combined analysis of $B\to K\nu\bar\nu$ and $B\to Kl^+l^-$ can provide us with new physics tests practically free of form factor uncertainties. Residual theory errors are at the level of several percent. This study…
LHCb found hints for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) in $B\to K^*\mu^+\mu^-$, $R(K)$ and $B_s\to\phi\mu^+\mu^-$. These intriguing hints for NP have recently been confirmed by the LHCb measurement of $R(K^*)$ giving a combined…
In recent years, intriguing hints for the violation of Lepton Flavour Universality (LFU) have been accumulated in semileptonic $B$ decays, both in the neutral-current transitions $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ (i.e., $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$) and the…
Rare semileptonic $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ transitions provide some of the most promising frameworks to search for new physics effects. Recent analyses of these decays have indicated an anomalous behaviour in measurements of angular…
We study the implications of the observed excess in $B^+ \to K^+ \nu \bar{\nu}$ under the assumption of Rank-One Flavour Violation, i.e. that New Physics couples to a single specific direction in flavour space. By varying this direction we…
We investigate the consequences of deviations from the Standard Model observed in $b\to s\mu\mu$ transitions for flavour-changing neutral-current processes involving down-type quarks and neutrinos, under generic assumptions concerning the…
We summarize the physics case of a high-luminosity e+e- flavour factory collecting an integrated luminosity of 50-75 ab^(-1). Many New Physics sensitive measurements involving B and D mesons and tau leptons, unique to a Super Flavour…
Motivated by the new experimental information reported by the BNL--E787 Collaboration, we analyse the present impact and the future prospects opened by the measurement of $\br(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu)$. Although still affected by a large…
Flavour physics plays a crucial role in the search for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). While $B$ physics offers many observables to look for deviations from the SM, the highest new physics sensitivity can be obtained in the rare…
The potential of a Super Flavor Factory (SFF) for searches of New Physics is reviewed. While very high luminosity B physics is assumed to be at the core of the program, its scope for extensive charm and tau studies are also emphasized. The…
Within the assumption of Left-Handed (LH) New Physics (NP), we review the relations between $\mathcal{B}(B\to K^{(\ast)} \tau^+\tau^-)$ and $\mathcal{B}(B\to K^{(\ast)} \nu\bar \nu)$ for several Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) scenarios,…
We present an extensive analysis of rare K decays, in particular of the two neutrino modes K+->pi+ nu nu-bar and KL->pi0 nu nu-bar, in the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model. We analyse the expectations for the branching…
In this work we consider the implications of current $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ ($\ell=e,\,\mu$) measurements on several $B \to K^* \tau^+ \tau^-$ observables under the assumption that the possible new physics can have both universal as well…
We investigate the consequences of deviations from the Standard Model observed in $b\to s\mu\mu$ transitions for flavour-changing neutral-current processes involving down-type quarks and neutrinos. We derive the relevant Wilson coefficients…
$b\to s\tau^+\tau^-$ measurements are highly motivated for addressing lepton-flavor-universality (LFU)-violating puzzles such as $R_{K^{(\ast)}}$ anomalies. The anomalies of $R_{D^{(*)}}$ and $R_{J/\psi}$ further strengthen their necessity…
Precision measurements of flavour observables provide powerful tests of many extensions of the Standard Model. This contribution covers a range of flavour measurements of $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ transitions, several of which are in tension…
We discuss the consequences of deviations from the Standard Model observed in $b\to s\mu^+\mu^-$ transitions for flavour-changing neutral-current processes involving down-type quarks and neutrinos. We work within an effective field theory…
The exclusive decay mode B ->K*ll has become one of the key players in the search for New Physics in flavor. An increasing number of observables are being studied experimentally, and with increasing precision. Its theoretical description is…
The $B\to K^*\mu\mu$ decay exhibits deviations with respect to Standard Model expectations and the measurement of the ratio $R_K$ hints at a violation of lepton-flavour universality in $B\to K\ell\ell$ transitions. Both effects can be…
We propose improved Lepton Flavor Universality (LFU) ratios in semileptonic $P\to V \ell \bar{\nu}$ decays, when comparing $\mu$ and $\tau$ modes, that minimize the theoretical form-factor uncertainties. These optimized ratios are obtained…
