The rare decay $B^0_s \to \mu^+\mu^-$ plays a key role for the testing of the Standard Model. It is pointed out that the sizable decay width difference $\Delta\Gamma_s$ of the $B_s$-meson system affects this channel in a subtle way. As a…

The rare decays $B_{s(d)} \to \mu^+\mu^-$ play a key role for the testing of the Standard Model. An overview of the most recent theoretical predictions of the corresponding branching ratios is given, emphasizing that the sizable decay width…

The LHCb experiment has recently established a sizable width difference between the mass eigenstates of the $B_s$-meson system. This phenomenon leads to a subtle difference at the 10% level between the experimental branching ratios of $B_s$…

The B_s to mu+ mu- decay plays an outstanding role in tests of the Standard Model and physics beyond it. The LHCb collaboration has recently reported the first evidence for this decay at the 3.5 sigma level, with a branching ratio in the…

Leptonic rare decays of $B^0_{s,d}$ mesons offer a powerful tool to search for physics beyond the Standard Model. The $B^0_{s}\to\mu^+\mu^-$ decay has been observed at the Large Hadron Collider and the first measurement of the effective…

A search for the rare decays $B^0_s\to\mu^+\mu^-$ and $B^0\to\mu^+\mu^-$ is performed at the LHCb experiment using data collected in $pp$ collisions corresponding to a total integrated luminosity of 4.4 fb$^{-1}$. An excess of…

The decay $B^0_s\to\mu^+\mu^-$ is a key probe for the search of physics beyond the Standard Model. While the current measurements of the corresponding branching ratio agree with the Standard Model within the uncertainties, significant…

We perform a model independent analysis of new physics in $B^*_s \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-$ decay. We intend to identify new physics operator(s) which can provide large enhancement in the branching ratio of $B^*_s \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-$…

Decays of the kind $B^0_{s,d}\to\ell^+\ell^-$ belong to the most favourable processes for probing the flavour structure of the Standard Model, with outstanding sensitivity to new (pseudo)-scalar contributions. While the branching ratio of…

An improved measurement of the decay $B^0_s\to\mu^+\mu^-$ and searches for the decays $B^0\to\mu^+\mu^-$ and $B^0_s\to\mu^+\mu^-\gamma$ are performed at the LHCb experiment using data collected in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} =…

In this talk I give a theoretical overview of the rare decays $B_{s} \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $B_{d} \to \mu^+ \mu^-$. The branching ratios of these decays are promising probes of New Physics, both independently and relative to each other.…

New physics models that increase the decay rate of $B_s \to \tau^+ \tau^-$ contribute to the absorptive part of $B_s$--$\bar{B}_s$ mixing, and may enhance $\Delta\Gamma_s$ all the way up to its current experimental bound. In particular, the…

The LHCb experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider will soon allow us to enter a new era in the exploration of B_s decays. A particularly promising channel for the search of "new physics" is B^0_s -> mu^+ mu^-. The systematic key…

This article reviews the most recent measurements of $B_{(s)}^0\to\mu^+\mu^-$ decay properties at the LHC, which are the most precise to date. The measurements of the branching fraction and effective lifetime of the $B_{s}^0\to\mu^+\mu^-$…

The current experimental status of the searches for the very rare decays $B^0_s \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-$ and $B^0 \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-$ is discussed. These channels are highly sensitive to various extensions of the Standard Model,…

The experimentally established non-zero decay width difference of the B_s meson system gives us access to a mass eigenstate rate asymmetry for each B_s transition. This observable is not only the key ingredient in converting between…

Several new physics scenarios that address anomalies in $B$-physics predict an enhancement of $b \rightarrow s \tau \tau$ with respect to its Standard Model prediction. Such scenarios necessarily imply modifications of the lifetime ratio…

After Run 1 of the LHC, global fits to $b \rightarrow s \ell \ell$ observables show a deviation from the Standard Model (SM) with a significance of $\sim$ 4 standard devations. An example of a $b \rightarrow s \ell \ell$ process is the…

We perform a model independent analysis to identify new physics operators which can enhance the branching ratio of $B_s^* \rightarrow \mu^+ \mu^-$ above its Standard Model (SM) prediction. We find that none of the new physics operators…

Results on $B \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ decays with the CMS experiment are reported, using 61 fb$^{-1}$ of data recorded during LHC Run 1 and 2016. With an improved muon identification algorithm and refined unbinned maximum likelihood fitting…
