Many experiments whose goal is the search for neutrino-less double beta decay are taking data or in a final construction stage. The need for a tool that allows for an objective comparison between the sensitivity of different experiments is…
The decay of neutrino mass eigenstates leads to a change of the conversion and survival probability of neutrino flavor eigenstates. Remarkably, we find that the neutrino decay provides an enhancement of the expected tau appearance signal…
The rare flavour-changing neutral current decay $B_s\to\mu^+\mu^-$ is among the most important indirect probes of new physics at the LHC, as it is strongly suppressed in the Standard Model, very sensitive to new physics effects, and…
The present status of the LHC anomalies found in exclusive semileptonic $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ decays is discussed with special emphasis on the exclusive 4-body angular distribution $B \to K^*(\to K\pi)\ell^+\ell^-$. The treatment of hadronic…
The spectrum of supersymmetric theories with R-parity violation are much more weakly constrained than that of supersymmetric theories with a stable neutralino. We investigate the signatures of supersymmetry at the LHCb experiment in the…
I discuss how supersymmetry affects various observables in B decays, and point out the interesting channels in the context of B factories.
We present a search for an invisible hidden-sector particle $ X_{\rm{inv}}$, produced in $B^0 \to \bar{D}^0 X_{\rm{inv}}$ and $B^\pm\to h X_{\rm{inv}}$ decays, where $h = \pi^\pm$, $K^\pm$, $D_{s}^\pm$, $p^\pm$. The search is performed…
We present a search for the decay $\B^+ \to \ell^+ \nu_{\ell} (\ell = \tau, \mu, \mathrm{or} e)$ in $(458.9 \pm 5.1) \times 10^{6}$ $\Upsilon(4S)$ decays recorded with the Babar detector at the SLAC PEP-II $B$-Factory. A sample of events…
The region of the supersymmetry parameter space, in which charginos decay predominantly into sneutrinos and leptons: chi+ -> \tilde{\nu} + l+, is not excluded experimentally for small mass differences between charginos and sneutrinos. The…
A number of observables related to the $b \to s \ell^+ \ell^-$ transition show deviations from their standard model predictions. A global fit to the current $b\rightarrow s\ell^+\ell^-$ data suggests several new physics solutions.…
We consider the decays of a $B_s$-meson into a pair of lightest supersymmetric particles (LSP) in the minimal supersymmetric standard model. It is found that the parameter space for light LSP's in the range of 1 GeV can be appreciably…
Inclusive semileptonic decays of beauty baryons are studied using the heavy quark expansion to ${\cal O}(1/m_b^3)$, at leading order in $\alpha_s$. The case of a polarized decaying baryon is examined, with reference to $\Lambda_b$. An…
We find evidence for the semileptonic baryonic decay $B^-\to p\bar p\ell^-\bar\nu_\ell$ ($\ell=e,\mu$), based on a data sample of 772 million $B\bar B$ pairs collected at the $\Upsilon(4S)$ resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB…
The b --> s nu anti-nu transitions are sensitive probes of new physics (NP) in the form of non-standard Z penguin effects. They involve four experimentally accessible observables, among which the inclusive rate of B --> Xs nu anti-nu is the…
Dedicated underground experiments searching for dark matter have little sensitivity to GeV and sub-GeV masses of dark matter particles. We show that the decay of B mesons to K(K^*) and missing energy in the final state can be an efficient…
The study of rare B-decays at SuperB provides unique opportunities to understand the Standard Model and constrain new physics. It is discussed the new physics potential of the B -> K nu nu_bar and B -> K^{\ast} nu nu_bar system from the…
The rare decays $B^+\to K^+ \mu\bar \mu$ and $B^0\to K^{*0} \mu\bar\mu$ provide the strongest constraints on the mixing of a light scalar with the Higgs boson for GeV-scale masses. The constraints sensitively depend on the branching ratio…
Lepton flavour violating (LFV) processes are a smoking gun signal of new physics (NP). If the semileptonic $B$ decay anomalies are indeed due to some NP, such operators can potentially lead to LFV decays involving the second and the third…
Motivated by the experimental study of $J/\psi\to\gamma ~+$ invisible decay by the CLEO Collaboration, we analyze the process $J/\psi\to \gamma \nu\bar{\nu}$, as the standard model background for this invisible decay, at the lowest order.…
We search for a light scalar particle produced in single-photon decays of the Upsilon(3S) resonance through the process Upsilon(3S) -> gamma A0, A0 -> invisible. Such an object appears in Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric extensions of the…
