We discuss the uses of conversion electron pairs for extracting photon polarization information in weak radiative B decays. Both cases of leptons produced through a virtual and real photon are considered. Measurements of the angular…
We investigate a new method to probe the helicity of the photon emitted in the b -> s gamma transition. The method relies on the observation of interference effects between two resonance contributions, B -> K*(K gamma) gamma and B ->…
We propose a way of measuring the photon polarization in radiative B decays into K resonance states decaying to K\pi\pi, which can test the Standard Model and probe new physics. The photon polarization is shown to be measured by the up-down…
An angular analysis of the $B^0 \to K^{*0} e^+ e^-$ decay is performed using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $9~{\rm fb}^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions collected with the LHCb experiment. The analysis is conducted in…
In this talk, I introduce recently proposed method for measuring the photon polarization in $B\to K_{\rm res}\gamma$. It is also shown that anomalous right-handed top couplings can severely affect the photon polarization without spoiling…
We re-examine the possibility to measure the photon polarization in $B \to K^*\gamma$ decays, via decays in which the photon subsequently undergoes nuclear conversion to a lepton pair. We obtain compact expressions for the full…
We report a sensitive study of measuring $b\to s\gamma$ photon polarisation in $D^{0}\to K_1(1270)^-e^+\nu_e$ with an integrated luminosity of $\mathcal L$ = 1 ab$^{-1}$ at a center-of-mass energy of 3.773 GeV at future Super Tau Charm…
We reexamine, update and extend a suggestion we made fifteen years ago for measuring the photon polarization in $b \to s\gamma$ by observing in $B \to K\pi\pi\gamma$ an asymmetry of the photon with respect to the $K\pi\pi$ plane.…
Radiative decays of polarized Lambda_b baryons represent an attractive possibility to measure the helicity of the photon emitted in the b --> s gamma quark transition and thus to subject the Standard Model to a stringent test at existing…
The radiative decays of $b$-baryons facilitate the direct measurement of photon helicity in $b\to s\gamma$ transitions thus serving as an important test of physics beyond the Standard Model. In this paper we analyze the complete angular…
Recently the radiative B decay to the strange axial-vector mesons, B --> K1(1270) gamma, has been observed with rather large branching ratio. This process is particularly interesting as the subsequent K1 decay into its three body final…
A method is proposed to measure the photon polarisation parameter $\lambda_\gamma$ in $b\to s\gamma$ transitions using an amplitude analysis of $B\to K\pi\pi\gamma$ decays. Simplified models of the $K\pi\pi$ i system are used to simulate…
The photon polarization in $D_{(s)} \to K_1 (\to K\pi\pi) \gamma$ decays can be extracted from an up-down asymmetry in the $K \pi \pi$ system, along the lines of the method known to $B \to K_1 (\to K\pi\pi) \gamma$ decays. Charm physics is…
This Letter presents a study of the flavor-changing neutral current radiative $B^{\pm} \to K^{\pm}\pi^{\mp}\pi^{\pm}\gamma$ decays performed using data collected in proton-proton collisions with the LHCb detector at $7$ and $8\,$TeV…
The first full angular analysis of the $B^0 \to D^{*-} D_s^{*+}$ decay is performed using 6 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collision data collected with the LHCb experiment at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. The $D_s^{*+} \to D_s^+ \gamma$ and…
A measurement of the photon polarization in radiative penguin $B$ decays provides a test of the Standard Model and a probe for New Physics, that can lead to a deviation from the Standard Model prediction of left-handed photons in $b\to s…
We study decay distributions in B -> K pi pi gamma, combining contributions from several overlapping resonances in a K pi pi mass range near 1400 MeV, (1^+) K_1(1400), (2^+) K^*_2(1430) and (1^-) K^*(1410). A method is proposed for using…
The photon polarization in $b \to s \gamma$ transitions is measured for the first time in radiative b-baryon decays exploiting the unique spin structure of $\Lambda_b \to \Lambda \gamma$ decays. A data sample corresponding to an integrated…
A new phase for the measurements of radiative decay modes in $b \to s$ transitions has started with new measurements of exclusive modes by LHCb and with Belle-II showing distinctive promises in both inclusive and exclusive channels. After…
The effect of anomalous right-handed top couplings on the photon polarization in $B\to K_{\rm res}\gamma$ is investigated. It is recently reported that the photon polarization can be measured through the up-down asymmetry of the photon…
