The growing experimental indication of Lepton Flavour Universality Violation (LFUV) both in charged- and neutral-current semileptonic B-decays, has triggered many theoretical interpretations of such non-standard phenomena. Focusing on…
We consider the prospect of using the charm system as a laboratory for probing new physics. The theoretical expectations for rare charm meson decays, $D^0-bar D^0$ mixing, and charm quark asymmetries in $Z$ decays are examined in the…
$|\Delta c|=|\Delta u|=1$ processes are unique probes of flavor physics in the up-sector within and beyond the Standard Model (SM). SM tests with rare semileptonic charm meson decays are based on an approximate CP--symmetry, a superior…
Exclusive decays of B and D mesons are discussed with the focus on the theoretical problem how to calculate the relevant hadronic matrix elements of weak operators in the framework of QCD sum rules. The three lectures are devoted to 1.…
The charm quark has unique properties that make it a very important probe of many facets of the Standard Model. New experimental information on charm decays is becoming available from dedicated experiments at charm factories, and through…
We revisit rare radiative leptonic decays $B_{s,d}\to \gamma e^+e^-$ and $B_{s,d}\to \gamma \mu^+\mu^-$ in the Standard Model and provide the updated estimates for various differential distributions (the branching ratios, the…
Recent Kaon decay studies seeking lepton-flavor violating (LFV) new-physics effects are briefly discussed. The main focus is set on precise measurements of rare or not-so-rare decays aiming at finding evidence of deviations from the SM…
We present a comprehensive review of purely leptonic and semileptonic decays of $D^{0(+)}$, $D_s^{+}$, and charmed baryons (including $\Lambda_c^{+}$, $\Xi_c$ and $\Omega_c$). The precise studies of these decays help deepen our…
Several measurements on $R_D, R_{D^*}$, and $R_{J/ \psi}$ by the BaBar, Belle, and LHCb experiments show significant deviations from their Standard Model (SM) predictions, which illustrate the fact that the concept of lepton flavor…
We examine in detail the semi-leptonic decay $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda_c \tau{\bar \nu}_{\tau}$, which may confirm previous hints, from the analogous $B$ decay, of a new physics beyond the standard model. First of all, starting from rather…
Flavour physics is currently well described by the Standard Model except for some measurements which could be signalling new physics. We briefly summarize the status of tensions in rare exclusive semi-leptonic $B$ decays and in…
The persisting anomalous data in semileptonic B-decays point towards New Physics models exhibiting large sources of Lepton Flavour Universality Violation. In this work we generalise previous studies by considering frameworks which include…
I discuss the results on $D^{0}$-$\bar{D}^{0}$ mixing through hadronic as well as semi-leptonic charm decays, rare flavor-changing neutral currents in the charm sector and the lepton flavor violating $\tau$ decaying to charged lighter…
The flavor changing decays of heavy bottom quarks to the corresponding lighter quarks ($u$, $c$ and $s$) in various $B$-meson decays via charged current and neutral current semileptonic transitions have emerged as promising candidates to…
I review recent progress in lattice computations relevant for $B$- and charm physics, focusing on decay and mixing amplitudes with a direct impact on CKM analysis. Emphasis is put on the interplay with the upcoming new generation of…
The current status of the theory and phenomenology of weak decays of hadrons containing a heavy quark is reviewed. Exclusive semileptonic and rare decays of $B$ mesons are discussed, as well as inclusive decay rates, the semileptonic…
Precision results on the leptonic, semileptonic, and hadronic decays of charm mesons are reviewed. These results are important for timely progress in weak flavor physics both in their own right and as checks of theoretical calculations.…
I review the recent theoretical progress on the study of tree-level semileptonic $b\to c$ decays. After briefly reviewing the latest developments on the exclusive determinations of $|V_{cb}|$, I discuss the hints on lepton flavor…
In this talk an analysis of the rare exclusive $B$ decays $B\to K\nu\bar\nu$ and $B\to K^{*}\nu\bar\nu$ within and beyond the Standard Model is presented. Combining new form factor determinations from lattice QCD with light-cone sum rule…
Lepton flavor universality in the Standard Model and hints of its violation in neutral ($R_K$) and charged currents $(R_{D^{(*)}})$ in $B$ decays are presented. We discuss model independent features as well as several leptoquark scenarios…
