We report a preliminary measurement of the CP violating asymmetry in D0->pi+pi- using approximately 215,000 decays reconstructed in about 5.94/fb of CDF data. We use the strong D*+->D0pi+ decay ("D* tag") to identify the flavor of the…
We examine the possible unparticle effects on $R(D^{(*)})$ associated with $B\to D^{(*)}\tau\nu$ decays by minimum-$\chi^2$ fitting. Recent measurements from Belle and LHCb are included in this analysis. While it is true that the new…
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…
The $B$ meson semileptonic modes to $\rho(770)$ and $a_1 (1260)$ are useful to pin down possible non Standard Model effects. The 4d differential $\bar B \to \rho(\pi \pi) \ell^- \bar \nu_\ell$ and $ \bar B \to a_1 (\rho \pi) \ell^- \bar…
In this contribution we present a novel, model-independent description of semileptonic $B\rightarrow D \pi \ell \nu$ decays. In addition, we discuss recent developments in the understanding of coupled-channel $D \pi$-$D \eta$-$D_s K$ S-wave…
We clarify the conditions or assumptions under which theoretical predictions of various models beyond the standard model give mainly in electric dipole moments. The correct interpretation of those conditions seems to be indispensable to the…
Accurate comparisons between theoretical models and experimental data are critical for scientific progress. However, inferred physical model parameters can vary significantly with the chosen physics model, highlighting the importance of…
It is generally believed that the decay mode $B\to K^*\ell^+\ell^-$ is one of the best modes to search for physics beyond the standard model. The angular distribution enables the independent measurement of several observables as a function…
We revisit the experimental and theoretical status of $B \to \rho l \bar{\nu}$ and $B \to \omega l \bar{\nu}$ decays. We perform a combined fit of averaged spectra from Belle and Babar measurements with prior light cone sum rule…
The experimental measurements of flavor-changing neutral-current B-meson decays governed by b --> s + (gamma, l^+ l^-) transitions have entered a new level of precision. Recent results by Belle, CDF, Babar, and LHCb on B -->K^(*) l^+ l^-…
In the light of new experimental results on $B \to K\pi$ decays, we study the decay processes $B \to K \pi$ in the framework of both R-parity conserving (SUGRA) and R-parity violating supersymmetric models. We find that any possible…
The simplest interpretation of the global success of the Standard Model is that new physics decouples well above the electroweak scale. Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model offers the possibility of light chargino and the…
Measurements of $CP$ observables in $B^\pm \rightarrow D^{(*)} K^\pm$ and $B^\pm \rightarrow D^{(*)} \pi^\pm$ decays are presented, where $D^{(*)}$ indicates a neutral $D$ or $D^*$ meson that is an admixture of $D^{(*)0}$ and…
Recent results from CLEO on $B\to K\pi$ indicate that the phase $\gamma$ may be substantially different from that obtained from other fit to the KM matrix elements in the Standard Model. We show that $\gamma$ extracted using $B\to K\pi,…
We review the parameter regions allowed by measurements of $\mathcal{R}(D^{(*)})$ and by a theoretical limit on ${\cal B}(B_{c}\to\tau\nu)$ in terms of generic scalar and pseudoscalar new physics couplings, $g_s$ and $g_p$. We then use…
We propose a new parametrization of the $B\to\pi$ vector form factor, $f_+(q^2)$, as an expansion in powers of a conformal mapping variable, which satisfies unitarity, analyticity and perturbative QCD scaling. The unitarity constraint is…
The study of $\bar{B} \to D^* \tau {\bar{\nu}}_\tau$ angular distribution can be used to obtain information about new physics (or beyond the Standard Model) couplings, which are motivated by various $B$ anomalies. However, the inability to…
The semitauonic decay $\bar{B} \rightarrow D^* \tau^- \bar{\nu}_\tau$ is sensitive to new physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) that has an enhanced coupling to the $\tau$ lepton. In the ratio of branching fractions $R(D^*) =…
Estimates of uncertainty or variance in experimental means are central to physics. This is especially the case for `world averages' of fundamental physical parameters in particle physics, which aggregate results from a number of experiments…
Tests of lepton-universality as rate ratios in $b\to s \ell\ell$ transitions can be predicted very accurately in the Standard Model. The deficits with respect to expectations reported by the LHCb experiment in muon-to-electron ratios of the…
