At the LHC, bottom baryons are being produced in unprecedented quantities, which opens up a new field for flavor physics. For example, the decay $\Lambda_b \to p \mu^- \bar{\nu}$ can be used to obtain a novel determination of the CKM matrix…
We calculate---for the first time in three-flavor lattice QCD---the hadronic matrix elements of all five local operators that contribute to neutral $B^0$- and $B_s$-meson mixing in and beyond the Standard Model. We present a complete error…
We explore the would-be consequences of a low value of the CP-violating phase $\sin2\beta_{\psi K}$. The importance of a reference triangle obtained from measurements that are independent of $B$--$\bar B$ and $K$--$\bar K$ mixing is…
We estimate, in a large class of scenarios, the sensitivity to new physics in B_d and B_s mixings achievable with 50 ab-1 of Belle II and 50 fb-1 of LHCb data. We find that current limits on new physics contributions in both B_{d,s} systems…
The recently reported measurements of the CP asymmetry a(psi K) by the BABAR and BELLE collaborations are in good agreement with the standard model prediction. With the anticipated precision in a(psi K) at the B factories and hadron…
We study the exclusive semileptonic $B$-meson decays $B\to K(\pi)\ell^+\ell^-$, $B\to K(\pi)\nu\bar\nu$, and $B\to\pi\tau\nu$, computing observables in the Standard model using the recent lattice-QCD results for the underlying form factors…
During the last fifteen years B_{s,d} decays, B_{s,d}^0-\bar B^0_{s,d} mixings, CP-violating asymmetries S_{\psi K_S} and S_{\psi\phi} provided the dominant information about the pattern of flavour violation within the SM and its…
We analyze the impact of the forthcoming CP-violating observables in the $B_s\to K^+ K^-$ system, combined with the precise measurement of $\sin2\beta$ , in the extraction of the CKM matrix. Computing the penguin parameters $(r, \theta)$…
Semileptonic $B_s \to K \ell \nu$ decays provide an alternative $b$-decay channel to determine the CKM matrix element $|V_{ub}|$, and to obtain a $R$-ratio to investigate lepton-flavor-universality violations. Results for the CKM matrix…
We study predictions for B-physics in a class of models, recently introduced, with a non-supersymmetric warped extra dimension. In these models few ($\sim 3$) TeV Kaluza-Klein masses are consistent with electroweak data due to bulk…
We review and update the constraints on the parameters of the quark flavour mixing matrix $V_{CKM}$ in the standard model and estimate the resulting CP asymmetries in $B$ decays, taking into account recent experimental and theoretical…
Results in the quenched approximation for SU(3) breaking ratios of the heavy-light decay constants and the $\Delta F=2$ mixing matrix elements are reported. Using lattice simulations at $6/g^2=5.7$, 5.85, 6.0, and 6.3, we directly compute…
These proceedings review the status of New Physics contributions to flavour violating $B$ decays. The anomalies in charged and neutral current $B$ decays related to lepton flavour universality violation have received a substantial amount of…
The decays of top quark $t\rightarrow c\gamma,\;t\rightarrow cg,\;t\rightarrow cZ,\;t\rightarrow ch$ are extremely rare processes in the standard model (SM). The predictions on the corresponding branching ratios in the SM are too small to…
We investigate the experimentally allowed parameter space of an extension of the standard model (SM3) by one additional family of fermions. Therefore we extend our previous study of the CKM like mixing constraints of a fourth generation of…
We study extensions of the Standard Model where the charged current weak interactions are governed by the CKM matrix and where all tree-level decays are dominated by their Standard Model contribution. We constrain both analytically and…
The phenomenon of $B^0_q$-$\bar{B}^0_q$ mixing ($q=d,s$) provides a sensitive probe for physics beyond the Standard Model. We have a careful look at the determination of the Unitarity Triangle apex, which is needed for the Standard Model…
Results by the BaBar and Belle experiments of the measurements $\sin 2\alpha$, $\sin 2\beta$ and $\sin (2\beta + \gamma)$ along with the CKM matrix elements $V_{cb}$ and $V_{ub}$ are presented. The BaBar and Belle experiments $b \to…
Motivated by the recent determination of the top quark mass by the CDF collaboration, $\mt =174 \pm 10 ^{+13}_{-12}$ GeV, we review and update the constraints on the parameters of the quark flavour mixing matrix $V_{CKM}$ in the standard…
We discuss the determination of the CKM angles gamma and alpha using recent data from non-leptonic B decays together with flavour symmetries. Penguin effects are controlled by means of the CP-averaged branching ratio B_d \to \pi^\pm K^\mp.…
