Our article is devoted to the study of the rare $B_s\to \phi \ell^+\ell^-$ decay where $\ell=\mu,\tau$. We compute the relevant form factors in the framework of the covariant quark model with infrared confinement in the full kinematical…
We have just entered a new round in the testing of the flavour sector of the Standard Model through high-precision measurements of B-meson decays. A particularly exciting aspect is the exploration of the B_s-meson system at LHCb. We focus…
The rare B_s-> \phi \ell^+ \ell^- decay is investigated by using the most general model independent effective Hamiltonian for $\ell= \mu, \tau$. The calculated $Br(B_s \rar \phi \mu^+ \mu^-) = 1.92 \times 10^{-6}$ is in consistent with the…
The recent LHCb angular analysis of the exclusive decay B->K^*mu+mu- has indicated significant deviations from the Standard Model expectations. Accurate predictions can be achieved at large K*-meson recoil for an optimised set of…
We present an analysis of non-leptonic B decays in the minimally flavour-violating MSSM with large tan(beta). We relate the Wilson coefficients of the relevant hadronic scalar operators to leptonic observables, showing that the present…
The well-known problem of the unknown power corrections within QCD improved factorisation leaves the interpretation of the so-called LHCb anomalies in the angular observables of B-->K* mu+ mu- as an open problem. In order to contribute to…
We analyze the new physics effects in semileptonic $\bar{B_s} \to K^{*+}(\to K\pi) \ell^- \bar{\nu}_\ell$ decay induced by the $b \to u \ell \nu_{\ell}$ quark level transition. We consider the vector, scalar and tensor new physics Lorentz…
The recent measurements of $R_{K^+}$, $R_{K_S^0}$, $R_{K^{*+}}$, $B_s\to\mu^+\mu^-$, a set of CP-averaged angular observables for the $B^0\to K^{*0}\mu^+\mu^-$ decay, and its isospin partner $B^+\to K^{*+}\mu^+\mu^-$ by the LHCb…
We consider possible new physics contributions to b\to s l^+ l^- assuming the new physics modifies (chromo)magnetic and electric form factors in b\to s \gamma^* and b\to s g with the same chirality structure as in the standard model.…
In this white paper for the Snowmass process, we discuss the prospects of probing new physics explanations of the persistent rare $B$ decay anomalies with a muon collider. If the anomalies are indirect signs of heavy new physics,…
We critically examine the potential to disentangle Standard Model (SM) and New Physics (NP) in $B \to K^* \mu^+\mu^-$ and $B\to K^* e^+ e^-$ decays, focusing on $(i)$ the LHCb anomaly, $(ii)$ the search for right-handed currents, and…
We discuss the model dependence in the determination of the Wilson coefficient C_7 that governs the radiative electromagnetic decays of B mesons in the Standard Model, by considering various extensions of the effective Hamiltonian used to…
We study the semileptonic decays of the $B_c$ meson into final charmonium states within the standard model and beyond. The relevant hadronic transition form factors are calculated in the framework of the covariant confined quark model…
A new way of probing new physics in the $B$ meson system is provided. We define double ratios for the observables of $B_{d,s}$-$\Bbar_{d,s}$ mixings and $B_{d,s}\to\mu^+\mu^-$ decays, and find simple relations between the observables. By…
We propose measurements of weighted differences of the angular observables in the rare decays $B \to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$. The proposed observables are very sensitive to the difference between the Wilson coefficients $\mathcal{C}_9^{(e)}$ and…
In the absence of direct evidence for New Physics at present LHC energies, the focus is set on the anomalies and discrepancies recently observed in rare $b \to s\ell\ell$ transitions which can be interpreted as indirect hints. Global fits…
Rare decays of the $B$ meson are sensitive to new physics effects. Several experimental results on these decays have been difficult to understand within the standard model (SM) though more precise measurements and a better understanding of…
The analysis of $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ flavor-changing neutral current decays is a powerful test of the Standard Model (SM). Due to the strong suppression of these modes in the SM, potential New Physics contributions can have a significant…
We update the standard model predictions for the branching ratios of the decays B -> (K,K*,Xs) l^+ l^-, with l=e,mu. Using the measurements of BR(B -> Xs gamma) and BR(B -> K l^+ l^-) as well as the upper limits on BR(B -> (K*,Xs) l^+…
The rare decay B -> K* nu anti-nu allows a transparent study of Z penguin and other electroweak penguin effects in New Physics (NP) scenarios in the absence of dipole operator contributions and Higgs (scalar) penguin contributions that are…
